Johannes Robert Schürch (1895-1941) is one of the most important representatives of early modernism in Switzerland. Driven by the existential and universal themes of humanity, he created hundreds of washed ink drawings and expressive watercolours in retreat from society. The exhibition Johannes Robert Schürch. Seeing Everything is dedicated to this most productive creative period (1922-1932) and brings an outstanding and largely forgotten draughtsman back into the consciousness of the present with around 150 works.
