Peter Hachler (1922-99) ranks among the most revered and formerly
most radical sculptors in contemporary Swiss art. Geometric rigor
as well as an intuitive playfulness distinguish Hachler's work. The
range of materials he used for his sculptures is another striking
characteristic of his art. In the 1970s, Hachler began
experimenting with industrial materials - such as concrete,
plastic, cast iron, or stainless steel - creating vast works for
display in public spaces, some of them conceived as
art-in-architecture projects. This new monograph, published in
conjunction with an exhibition at Museum Haus Konstruktiv in Zurich
in autumn 2015, looks at Peter Hachler's art from today's
perspective. It features nearly forty of his sculptures in
photographs newly taken for this book. An essay by distinguished
Swiss art historian Martino Stierli contextualises Hachler's oeuvre
in postwar Swiss art, while curator Sabine Schaschl explores his
life and inspirations in conversation with his widow Eva and his
daughter Gabrielle.
