The Ricola Collection: Present and Past (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9783039422463)

Spotlights the collection of art that Swiss brand Ricola has curated for decades.

Ricola is a Swiss global brand, famous for its herbal candies, based in the town of Laufen, near Basel. Since 1975, the shareholders of the still family-owned business have been systematically developing the Ricola Collection with a focus on Swiss art. Open to the public, and on display in buildings designed for the company by celebrated Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron since 1983, the collection spans more than half a century and represents the latest trends in contemporary art.

This lavishly illustrated book offers a lively insight into the collection, its history and presence in Ricola's corporate life, and places it within the Swiss art scene. Concise comments on a large selection of individual works round off this volume.
