    Squares, Lines, and Logic: Lohse’s Retrospective in Ticino

    The Art Museum of Italian-speaking Switzerland (MASI) is presenting a major retrospective dedicated to Richard Paul Lohse, co-founder of the “Zurich Concretists”. Following its debut in Lugano, the exhibition will travel to Haus Konstruktiv in Zurich and later to Germany in February.
