Ferdinand Hodler (1853-1918) was, along with Paul Cézanne, one of the greatest landscape painters of his time. Hodler saw and painted a world arranged in parallel lines, which he found in mountains, clouds, forests, women, men, and people in general - and so he represented them. Radicalising and systematising the order of the world, he designed his paintings as balanced and harmonious macrocosms.

On the occasion of the centenary of Ferdinand Hodler's death, this exhibition catalogue brings the artist's work into contact with this parallelism, which he considered so fertile. More than one hundred works are reproduced and accompanied by essays by leading Hodler specialists.
