Know about the book -

Bernhard Mendes Bürgi. Exhibitions 1982-2016 is written by Philipp Kaiser and published by Hatje Cantz Verlag. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 3775761020 (ISBN 10) and 9783775761024 (ISBN 13).

The publication concentrates on Bernhard Mendes Bürgi's more than thirty years of curatorial work. The focus is on a typographically generously designed list of all 110 exhibitions that Bürgi has been responsible for, particularly as director of the Kunsthalle Zürich and the Kunstmuseum Basel, accompanied by many installation views. A detailed discussion with Philipp Kaiser sheds light on the curatorial guidelines, which are contextualized in current events. The special significance of the "ideal solo exhibition," which always emerges anew from a close collaboration with the respective artist, becomes apparent.
