Description
The internationally famous Swiss artist Franz Gertsch will celebrate his 90th birthday in 2020. The Graphische Sammlung ETH Zürich, which has a long-standing relationship with the artist and is one of the most important presentation locations for his printed works, is taking advantage of this occasion with an exhibition and a bibliophile jubilee publication.
In addition to his portraits, which are now counted amongst the icons of Swiss art, Gertsch is famous for his captivating landscapes. Less known to the general public are his outstanding early works from the 1940s to 1950s, and it is on these that the volume Franz Gertsch focuses. Together with the artist, groups of themes were chosen from his collection and the stocks of the Graphische Sammlung ETH Zürich.
Colour proofs produced during the printing of his incomparable monochrome worlds round out this publication for art lovers.
