| book description |

Ricola is a Swiss global brand, famous for its herbal candies, based in the town of Laufen, near Basel. Emil Richterich, the companyâ€™s founder, began collecting works by local artists in the 1940s. Since 1975, the shareholders of the still family-owned business have been expanding the collection systematically with a focus on Swiss art. Collecting and presenting contemporary art is an aspect of Ricola's vibrant corporate culture and an expression of the owning family's integral cultural thinking. Open to the public, and exhibited in buildings designed that celebrated Swiss architects Herzog & de Meuron have designed for Ricola by since 1983, the collection spans more than half a century and the represents the latest trends in contemporary art. This book offers a lively insight into the collection and its presence in Ricolaâ€™s corporate life. Richly illustrated, it provides survey of its holdings and structure, and explores its history. Concise comments on a large selection of individual works round off this volume.
