Jean-Frédéric Schnyder (b. 1945, Basel / Switzerland) lives and works in Zug since 1996. After contributing to the legendary 'When Attitudes Become Form' exhibition at the Kunsthalle Bern in 1968, Schnyder made his first ventures into the field of painting in 1970/71. Then Harald Szeemann included him in documenta 5 in Kassel in 1972, and in 1993 he exhibited at the Swiss Pavilion at the 45th Venice Biennale.
