The cost of life / Paddy Hartley ; Texts by Jonathan Steffen.

"In the exhibition The Cost of Life: A perspective on health by Paddy Hartley, commissioned by Roche on the occasion of its 125th anniversary, the British artist reflects on the topic of risk in medicine and research. His artistic commentary on medical progress makes tangible the efforts of humanity around health and fighting disease. Both topics are of essential significance in the artist’s work. His view on medical development allows an approach to its – sometimes contradictory – consequences for humanity. This beautiful, rare and unique book — The Cost of Life book by Paddy Hartley, presents the exhibition that took part at both the Museum Tinguely and the Pharmacy Museum Basel between October 2021 and January 2022, the work Paddy created for the exhibition, the artist himself and a history of Roche." -- Interestingbooks.co.uk.
