Jean Tinguely began addressing his letter collages to conductor Paul Sacher in 1973. These letters, part of a long series to his wife Maja Sacher, reflect the warm and eventful nature of their friendship over the years. Both artists are significant figures in the artistic life of the century, with Tinguely known for kinetic art and Sacher for contemporary music. The letter drawings illustrate Sacher's interest in Tinguely's work and the phases and intensity of their friendship, as well as insights into the beginnings of the Jean Tinguely Museum in Basel, highlighting Sacher's important role in its creation. The collection also includes letters to Pierre Boulez and Fritz Gerber. A selection of Niki de Saint Phalle's letter drawings to Sacher offers a glimpse into the troubled period following Tinguely's death, while Sacher's autobiographical notes provide a unique document. Texts by Margrit Hahnloser, Niki de Saint Phalle, Pierre Boulez, and Hans Oesch, along with comments on the letters, convey the charisma and impact of these outstanding personalities and the intimacy that characterizes great friendships.
