Hans Josephsohn, Untitled, 1971, Brass, 66 x 218 x 59 cm (25,98 x 85,83 x 23,23 in), Ed. 2 of 6 + 2 AP, Courtesy Galerie Thaddaeus Ropac, London · Paris · Salzburg · Milan · Seoul © Josephsohn Estate
Following the retrospective dedicated to Hans Josephsohn’s work at the Musée d’Art Moderne de Paris last year – the artist’s first retrospective in France – Thaddaeus Ropac Paris Marais presents an exhibition retracing 50 years of the Swiss sculptor’s practice, from 1952 to 2002. Spanning Josephsohn’s key sculptural typologies, the ground floor of the gallery brings his tender, solitary early standing and reclining figures into conversation with the abstract volumes of his late half-figures, while the walls of the first-floor space become home to a focused presentation of the artist’s reliefs.
Solo show of Hans Josephsohn
From April 26th to May 28th, 2025

The gallery will open its seventh location in central Milan in the early autumn of 2025.
