The Swiss painter of the sublime
Mountain, storm and light as forces of nature
Alexandre Calame is building European fame thanks to his alpine landscapes. Trained in Geneva, he travels the Bernese Oberland and precisely translates rocks, trees and waters, while giving nature a romantic and spiritual scale. The "Alexandre Calame" selection notably compares Broken Tree at Kerket and The Aare Valley at Meiringen. His reading favors composition.
In Calame, the broken tree and the distant summit tell of both human fragility and the permanence of nature.
