Rene' Groebli

Photobastei, Zurich

Photobastei is devoting an exhibition to Swiss photographer Rene' Groebli (b. 9 October 1927 in Zurich) with a cross-section of his work from 1946 to 2002. This show of his creative output over six decades features some unknown and previously unexhibited works. From the early and classic black and white advertising and personal work - London, and experiments in motion and colour - to the Ireland (landscape), New York (montage) portfolios, and female nudes and portraits. Groebli was experimenting with colour distortion, cross-fading and montage long before the digital era and Photoshop. He perfected the dye transfer process and pushed it to its limits. It's astonishing to see how Groebli's early experiments in colour pre-empted Pop Art and the aesthetic of Andy Warhol. Opening: Thursday, 8 May, from 6pm.
