FGB GALLERY is a Swiss contemporary art gallery dedicated to the presentation, promotion and sale of works by Swiss artist and mathematician Jean-Claude Bossel.


PAINTING,
MATHEMATICS
AND ENCRYPTED MESSAGES

Jean-Claude Bossel has spent several decades developing a body of work combining painting, music, mathematics and fiction.

Since 2018, his practice has gradually evolved towards an original concept, unique in the contemporary art market: ENCRYPTED PAINTINGS.

Watch a 45-second presentation of Jean-Claude Bossel’s work.

ENCRYPTING
AND DECRYPTING
HOW DOES IT WORK?

To encrypt messages in his paintings, Jean-Claude Bossel uses an easily recognisable graphic vocabulary: dots, holes, lines, sequences of colours.

This ARTS & MATHEMATICS approach is characteristic of the CODE BACH® trademark, registered by the artist in 2022.

An in-depth understanding of the processes used to embed hidden messages in the works requires advanced mathematical knowledge.

However, this ARTS & MATHEMATICS world can be explored through small diptychs called CLUES. Each diptych combines a short fragment of simple mathematical encoding with its graphic translation on canvas, accessible to a non-mathematical audience.
