This exhibition catalog presents for the first time all the bronze heads created by the artist Eva Aeppli, Jean Tinguely’s first wife. In the early phases of her career, she devoted herself to drawing and painting. Only later did Aeppli turn her attention to the third dimension in art: in the 1970s creating heads, first sewn in silk and later cast in bronze and given a patina, some even gilded.

As early as 1975, John Armleder was serving tea – as a contribution to the Biennale de Paris. Much of what has been dealt with in recent years at the interfaces between art and services, between Pop Art and high culture, is found embryonically in a wide variety of forms in the works of this artist, born in Geneva in 1948, who has consistently developed his oeuvre for more than thirty years.

Kirstin Arndt is one of the artists who step back from the din of todays media society in order to ask questions about its formal structure and to renew the tradition of constructive, concretive and minimal art. By cleverly combining things in new ways, her works are able to tease new aesthetic qualities out of familiar materials.
