Karl Geiser, one of the most significant Swiss sculptors of the 20th century, left behind not only sculptures and drawings but also thousands of photographs. These images offer an intense and affectionate glimpse into the lives of the people who fascinated him—both in the studio and on the street. Geiser employed a visual language that feels remarkably modern today. With great freedom and without regard for photographic conventions, he created a very personal chronicle of his emotions through the camera. Geiser's sculptures have somewhat faded from memory, but his photographs still testify, with undiminished freshness, to an artistic vision that continues to resonate deeply with us. Fifty years after Geiser's death, this book pays tribute to his photographic work.
