Pays de Rêve
Step inside Zurich's historic restaurant and legendary bar to discover an abundance of fine art and haute cuisine. At the Kronenhalle restaurant, arguably Zurich's finest, the old-world decor is as sumptuous as the food. A former beerhall, this culinary landmark was a meeting place for musicians, artists, and thinkers from the early 20th century, many of whom paid for their meals with the fruits of their labor. This elegant book takes you inside the famous restaurant. From the white linen tablecloths, soft lighting, elegant chandeliers, and sumptuous dark wood walls to the masterpieces by Picasso, Rodin, Matisse, Bonnard, and Chagall that hang on those walls, it shows the spirit of creativity that inhabits every room and provides a closer look at the history of a superb art collection.

The Surrounded by Art
Julius Baer, established in Zurich in 1890, is a leading Swiss wealth management group. For nearly as long, the founding family has been engaged in supporting visual and performing arts. In 1981, on the initiative of its then chief executive Hans J. Bär (1927-2011), the company began to build its own collection of contemporary art, guided by the belief that art in a busines environment enhances the culture of discussion and is inspirational to employees and clients alike. Today, the Julius Baer Art Collection comprises more than 5,000 works in a range of media--painting, drawing, sculpture, photography, and video--by Swiss artists, both internationally renowned ones and emerging talents. This book offers a survey of the collection that is on rotating display at the bank's offices around the world and highlights its origins and evolution over the past four decades. artistic positions of thirty-five contemporary Swiss artists, such as John M Armleder, Silvia Bächli, Miriam Cahn, Lutz & Guggisberg, Markus Raetz, Shirana Shahbazi, and Roman Signer, are introduced through brief texts and illustrations of some 350 works from the collection.

Christoph Oertli
This monograph represents the first comprehensive overview of the work of Swiss video, performance, and sound artist Christoph Oertli, who has been a major presence in Swiss and international video art since the early 1990s. With in-depth texts and a picture section documenting the creation of many video works for the first time, the publication offers a precise and fascinating introduction to his entire oeuvre. In addition to a conversation between the artist and Ines Goldbach, director of the Kunsthaus Baselland, authors Giuseppe Di Salvatore, Johanna Hilari, and Isabel Zürcher analyze and discuss Oertli's work in the contexts of film and video, theater and dance, as well as art history and music. The design of the publication renders the immediacy of the recording, production, and the final edited image visible for the first time.
When attitudes escape form
Das Ausstellungsprogramm der Kunsthalle Basel um 1970 war punktuell darauf angelegt, die Institution zu öffnen. >Ich habe da diesen Raum, formulierte der damalige Konservator Peter F. Althaus programmatisch, kommt und macht etwas darin!
