His path takes Giacometti, Arp and Klee as its starting point: in the Swiss context, it is they who have most explored the expressive meaning of Surrealism or even laid the foundations for this artistic current to take shape, as in the case of Klee.
Each season of art brings with it new and completely original messages and representations of the world. In German, one might say that each aesthetic-cultural current inaugurates a new Weltanschauung, a new way of expressing and depicting man's position in the webs of reality around him. And for each of these 'frescoes' we can find representatives who better than anyone else were able to condense the entire structure of a specific 'worldview' into a work, a piece of writing or a philosophical system.
For Surrealism, it seems entirely legitimate to understand the figures of Alberto Giacometti, Hans Arp and Paul Klee as precursors and leading exponents of the movement founded by André Breton. His journey continues.
