Zurich | 14/05/2009 - 07/06/2009 Hermann Obrist Sculpture I Space I Abstraction around 1900

Exhibition presenting the complete work of the Swiss sculptor Hermann Obrist (1862-1927). In Munich in the 1890s, Obrist originated the German variation of Jugendstil, which fused high-quality craftsmanship from the applied arts with the aesthetic aspirations of the fine arts. With his fountains and tombs Obrist created the first abstract sculptures. He also went beyond the traditional concept of the sculptor in his concern with photography and opened up new paths for 20th century art.
