Hey guys !
How are you all ?
I hope you are alright..
I really miss to talk about Swiss with you all :D
Ummhh, today we will talk about the art of swiss..
It'll be interesting right??
Well, i won't waste the time
So, let's read this out :)
First, you should know that the well-known artists of the 19th and the start of 20th centuries include Albert Anker, Arnold Boecklin and Ferdinand Hodler. Some of the important figures in 20th century art were Swiss/Swiss-born, respectively: Alberto Giacometti (1901-66), famous for his sculptures of elongated figures, and Paul Klee (1879-1940).
There's also Jean Tinguely (1925-1991) with his creative and colourful installations, whose philosophy was that though machines made of scrap metal have no purpose they can have a meaning. Bernhard Luginbühl (1929-2011), a friend of Tinguely's, also used scrap iron to create huge sculptures.
Switzerland boasts a long tradition of architecture: visitors will enjoy opulent Romanesque cathedrals (such as those in Geneva or Basel), as well as Gothic churches (in Zurich and Lausanne) or the Jesuit Church in Lucerne, which, dating from 1666, is the first example of the Baroque style in Switzerland. Let's see the picture :D

Switzerland hosts an amazing concentration of galleries and museums displaying fascinating collections of history and traditions, natural and human sciences, ancient and modern art.
Perhaps one could argue it was no coincidence that Concrete Art should have appeared in a country which appreciates practicality and order.
Last but not least, music is simply part of the Swiss way of life. Not only are important music festivals and prestigious concerts organized throughout the country, but many Swiss people enjoy making music: the number of local bands and choirs is impressive.
That's all about the art of Swiss !
Thank you for visiting my blog, i hope you like it and of course enjoy with it.
