After Corsin Fontana’s retrospective 2009 at the Art Museum Graubünden, the present exhibition focuses on works done during the past ten years and integrates some earlier works and work groups that have not previously been shown. From the beginning Corsin Fontana chose the path of simplification and reduction, worked with “poor” materials, included natural processes in his work and increasingly concentrated on a design vocabulary beyond any figurativeness. Lines, grids and rasters became the supporting image elements; but in their material realisation in oil pastel these show lively structures full of sensuality.
