Description
This edition is dedicated to the work of the Swiss firm Christ & Gantenbein, and in particular the material aspects of their architecture. Emanuel Christ and Christoph Gantenbein opened their office in Basel in 1998, immediately after completing their studies at ETH Zurich. A chronological overview of their fundamental works since is provided, from the pioneering expansion of the Swiss National Museum to recent proposals for art museums in Barcelona and Antwerp. Accompanied by a text by Reto Geiser, it offers reflections on the intellectual intensity and geometric perseverance with which the architects approach their interventions, regardless of scale, function, or material.
