Kramlich Residence and Collection

Edited by Nicholas Olsberg. Foreword by Richard and Pamela Kramlich. Text by Dara Birnbaum, Aebhric Coleman, Nicholas Olsberg. Conversations with Jacques Herzog, Pierre de Meuron, Nicholas Serota, Nicholas Olsberg, Lynne Cooke. Photographs by Lothar Baumgarten, Luisa Lambri, Catherine Wagner.

This book explores the history of the Kramlich Residence, a home for American art collectors Richard and Pamela Kramlich and a dedicated gallery space for their pioneering collection of media art, located in the unique landscape of the Napa Valley. Built by Swiss architects Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron, the Kramlich Residence has remained a laboratory of ideas not only for the architects, but also for the artists and artworks that today engage with its spaces. The book explores these ideas through a number of contributions that draw on a distinct experience of the project: that the shape, nature, installations and spaces of the building inspire a more generous exploration of media art, and altogether new ways of seeing.

In the pavilion, it’s like ‘you’re living inside but you’re outside…you’re just caressed by the landscape’, says Pamela in The Kramlich Residence and Collection, a monograph published this month by Hatje Cantz that chronicles the development of the architectural project.
