In 1991 Ernesto Baltiswiler spent one year in Sweden in the middle of a forest in a tiny house without electricity and drinking water which he had to get with buckets from a spring in the forest. He experienced the particular nature of woodland, simplicity, solitude and gardening. The results were 20 new paintings titled “Amidst Woodland” which he exhibited in the pop-up gallery Stelzner & Rading in the Ruhrgebiet, in Essen, Germany- once the center of a huge steel industry. They published the book “Ernesto Baltiswiler”. The acclaimed Swedish graphic designer Anders Ljungman designed the book. Ulrich Krempel, director of the Sprengel Museum in Hannover, wrote about Baltiswilers paintings, the photographer Snezana Vucetic Bohm managed to take an epic portrait of Baltiswiler with a boa snake around his neck and Plitt Druck- and Verlag GmbH, in Oberhausen, Germany performed a very high print quality.
