Arp, Hans / Jean
Born in 1886 in Strasbourg, the German-French artist and poet Hans/Jean Arp is one of the most important sculptors of the twentieth century. He co-founded Dada in Zurich in 1916 and later participated in Surrealist circles in Paris as well as the artists’ group Abstraction-Création.
Twenty Sketchbooks
Hans / Jean Arp’s diverse visual oeuvre—primarily consisting of sculptures, reliefs, drawings, collages and prints—is world-renowned, yet his sketchbooks remain relatively unknown. Twenty Sketchbooks seeks to remedy this by reproducing as meticulous facsimiles 20 of Arp’s small sketchbooks and spiral-bound pads, made between 1950 and 1966 and today held at the Fondazione Marguerite Arp-Hagenbach, located in Arp’s last atelier in Locarno, Switzerland.
