| book description |

Since 1986, Swiss Institute in New York has been a driving force for supporting experimental and emerging artists from around the world. Founded by Swiss expatriates to showcase the rapid changes to their home country's culture, the institute soon expanded beyond its Helvetic roots to champion a diverse range of under-recognised art and artists internationally. SInce 1986 looks back at Swiss Institute's legacy as one of New York's most forward-thinking non-profit art spaces. Included in this volume are oral histories from key figures involved with Swiss Institute and an essay placing the institution in the broader context of the history of New York. A complete visual timeline of its ground-breaking programme is woven throughout the book, featuring reproductions of art and installations, archival images, and ephemera, as well as more than twenty-five specially commissioned projects by a diverse range of contemporary artists. Chronicling Swiss Institute's past as it moves into the future, SInce 1986 is a must-read for those curious about the history of this important institution.
