Portrait of John Armleder

Swiss, b. 1948

John Armleder is a Swiss artist. 3 works are cataloged here, principally at Museum of Modern Art. John Armleder was born in Geneva.

John Armleder is a Swiss performance artist, painter, sculptor, critic, and curator. His work is based on his involvement with Fluxus in the 1960s and 1970s, when he created performance art pieces, installations, and collective art activities that were strongly influenced by John Cage. However, Armleder's position throughout his career has been to avoid associating his artistic practice with any type of manifesto.
