and financial services company. With its programs that support art, its collaborations
with museums, and the renowned Baloise Art Prize for young artists, which is awarded
at Art Basel, the company has had a lasting effect on the development of contemporary
art. Less well-known up to now is the fact that, parallel to the company?s activities,
it has also built a first-class art collection, which dates back to the mid-twentieth
