Walter Maria Förderer

Walter Maria Förderer was a Swiss architect and sculptor. He lived from 1928 until 2006 and was a main representative of the neo-expressionist and brutalist church architecture of the 1960s. Between 1967 and 1971, Förderer built seven Catholic churches in Switzerland, all designed in exposed raw concrete with many complicated volumes.
