With the writer Dieter Roth, one of the most significant artists of
the 20th century, in the Schimmelmuseum in Hamburg, in the Roth
Room in Basel, in Iceland, and at the restaurant Chez Donati in
Basel. Four episodes from the lasting friendship between Erika
Streit, Beat Keusch, and Dieter Roth reveal the artist's many and
different facets. The book to be issued in October 2021 contains
many yet unpublished photographs and documents.
Basel-born architect Max Alioth (1930-2010) was a prominent figure
on the Swiss architecture and culture scene. Alioth was a
co-founder of Basels' Architecture Museum in 1984, which in 2006
became the Swiss Architecture Museum (S AM). Together with his wife
Susanna Biedermann, he founded the Ecole Superieure des Arts
Visuels (ESAV) in Marrakech, Morocco, for which he also designed
the main campus building. This first monograph on Max Alioth
illuminates his achievements from various perspectives. Selected
architectural designs from 1961-2007 are featured in detail through
photographs, plans, and texts. These include single-family homes, a
retirement home, multi-unit housing, Basel's Museum of Antiquities,
as well as the ESAV building in Marrakech. Moreover, the book
introduces Alioth also as a visual artist through reproductions of
sketches, drawings, and watercolours. Essays by architect Roger
Diener, the S AM's director Andreas Ruby, the director of ESAV
Vincent Melilli, and art historian and publicist Ulrike
Jehle-Schulte Strathaus round out this volume. Text in English and
German.
