A thousand and one Sheets of Paper. Works from the Graphical Collection of the Glarus Art Society Selected by Annelise Coste and Nadia Schneider

Selections from the Painting Collection of the Glarus Art Society are regularly shown in the Glarus Art Museum. More seldom exhibited in recent years have been the graphical works from the Collection. In parallel with the exhibition by Annelise Coste, who predominantly works with drawings, the Museum will exclusively display drawings and prints in the two cabinet rooms. In one of the two halls, the artist Annelise Coste will present her associative-thematic selection, in the center of which stand the drawings of the Art Brut artist Alfred Leuzinger. In the other hall, curator Nadia Schneider has compiled some of the most interesting graphical sheets from the Collection, including copperplate engravings by Albrecht Altdorfer, Lukas van Leyden, and etchings by Lovis Corinth, James Ensor, and Edgard Degas.
