In 1936 Evard took part in the exhibition “Zeitproblemen in der Schweizermalerei” in the Kunsthaus Zürich, where he exhibited together with important artistic personalities such as Hans Arp and Max Bill. In 1937 he became a member of the Swiss artist group “Allianz”. In addition to late Cubists and Surrealists, artists such as Max Bill, Alberto Giacometti, Paul Klee, Hans Arp and Le Corbusier also joined the group. André Evard’s importance is steadily increasing in professional circles. Since the Swiss artist refused to enter the art market throughout his life, he is still quite unknown. A collaboration with gallery owners never came about. As a result, André Evard’s importance for the development of the Swiss avant-garde was increasingly forgotten and he did not receive the recognition he deserved. He remained a loner throughout his life, developing his own visual language and a specific perspective right from the start, which is also reflected in his works. In the course of his life, he created hundreds of oil paintings, a large number of drawings and around 2,000 to 3,000 watercolors and gouaches, most of which are now in the collection of the messmer art gallery, where his work and his life are scientifically examined and processed.
