: Altdorf’s earliest poems, written during military service and
as a prisoner of war, reflected on nature, poetry and art.
Beginning a new life, post-war, as an artist, Altdorf explored how
the human figure might be depicted through increasingly abstract
representations. Similarly, he refined his poetry to create ‘a
new, free, melodic’ language’ with ‘a simple, song-like
beauty’. Presenting Altdorf’s poetry alongside his art reveals
a powerfully interconnected vision shaped but not defined by war: a
humanitarian outlook informed by a profound spiritual belief.
