John Armleder

Born 1948
Based in Geneva

John Armleder's protean work combines painting, sculpture, performance and installation. In 1969, he co-founded the Groupe Ecart with Patrick Lucchini and Claude Rychner, introducing figures such as Joseph Beuys and Andy Warhol to Switzerland. Close to the Fluxus movement, he began developing his Furniture Sculptures in the 1980s, combining furniture and painting to question the boundaries between art and design. His work, influenced by minimalism, the ready-made and abstraction, is exhibited internationally. He pursues a practice that values collaboration and chance, advocates the equivalence of materials and constantly questions aesthetic hierarchies.
