Biography Pierre Vogel
. After his schooling at Calvin College, he entered the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, which he left after six months to undertake long trips through Europe, the USA and Africa. On his return he decided to devote himself exclusively to artistic creation. His first exhibition of paintings took place in 1960 in Geneva. To broaden his vocabulary of forms and enrich his pictorial technique, he draws on film, studies photography, is passionate about engraving and builds his first press to print etchings.
Passionate about both classical and contemporary music , he built several musical instruments, an organ, then his Vogella, a sort of big 8-string guitar, and a koto.
At the end of the 1960s he created sets for the Théâtre de Poche, then he met Serge Golovine and created sets and costumes at the Grand Théâtre de Genève for several ballets.
At that time, he discovered Indian music, built his own sitar and a surbahar. He became friends with Ravi Shankar.
He created a dance hall in Geneva, the "Black Bird" which is distinguished by an inflatable track.
In 1966, he was invited to collaborate on the illustration of contemporary German poets, published in “Centaur II” edited by H. Raumschüssel in Göttingen. In 1972, he engraved and published the book “Parallel” (poems by P. Verlaine) presented at the Musée de l’Athénée. In 1978, he published 20 pen drawings in the magazine “Obliques” devoted to Alain Robbe-Grillet (ed. Borderie, Paris).
In the years 1989-1993 he produced several murals.
From 1974 until 2005 he exhibited both in Switzerland and abroad, in Germany, France, Poland, Canada and Latin America, in galleries and museums, notably at the Galerie Cour Saint-Pierre, Europ-Art Palexpo, Rath Museum, Museum of Art and History in Geneva, Helmhaus in Zurich, Skipholt Gallery in Reykjavik, Haus der Kunst in Munich.
