Rudolf Zender (1901-1988)

I discovered that i somehow have a soft spot for Suisse artists. Hodler is one of them is so is Gottfried Honegger. I can now add another one . Suisse Rudolf Zender lived and worked his entire life in Switzerland and made art in the style of DIE BRUCKE and the French post impressionists, but somehow managed to incorporate his own style into his subjects.

Possibly the french influence is because he once had his own artist studio in Paris and could not miss the many french examples of Post impressionist art and its subjects.The result some great paintings and certainly great graphic art. Zender is not very well known but lookong into his biography his art is closely related to some of the best artists from the 20th century.
