The Swiss artist Peter Stämpfli unfolds his artistic vision in the borderlands between Pop Art, Minimal Art, Conceptual Art, and figurative painting. - From 1969, he devoted himself to the motif of the tire. - The tire patterns become independent, take on supernatural dimensions, and encrust themselves into infinite symbolic landscapes. - Stämpfli's works can be found in internationally renowned collections, including the Centre Pompidou, Paris, the Kunsthaus Zürich, and the Museum.
