"Swiss design from the 70s and paintings"
Our end-of-summer newsletter features 3 major Swiss works from the Pop Art movement of the '60s and '70s, accompanied by 4 paintings by Swiss artists we particularly appreciate.
Arthur Jobin ( 1927-2000 ) Founder in 1955 with André Gigon, Charles-Oscar Chollet and Jean-Claude Hesselbarth of the “Collège vaudois des artistes concrets”.
René Myrha ( 1939 ) more than 70 years of career, recognized in Switzerland and abroad. A monograph celebrating his 80th birthday has been published by Notari.
Rita Ernst ( 1956 ) painter from Basel, close to the theories of Piet Mondrain and the Dutch De Stijl movement, she adds an interesting and personal touch to Swiss concrete art.
Pierre Gattoni ( 1953 ) a radically minimalist, even kinetic, painter, he uses the target, round or square, to energize the color spectrum, creating an almost hypnotic painting.
