With the title Summerending, the Swiss artists Adrian Schiess (*1959 in Zurich) and Annelies Štrba (*1947 in Zug) summon that time of year when summer crosses over into autumn: this is the atmospheric and sometimes melancholy season of transition the two internationally acclaimed artists capture in a new group of flower still lifes. Here, the tradition of the classic floral still life is taken up by way of a collaboration, with Annelies Štrba photographing the motif and Adrian Schiess then developing it further by means of painting.

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.
