The Basel University Library is dedicating a biographical exhibition, Sehend denkend [Thinking with Sight], to important milestones in the life work of Lucuis Burkhardt and his wife Annemarie Burkhardt.
Lucius Burkhardt's science of 'strollology' or 'promenadology' is a method to increase awareness and form a new understanding of nature and aesthetics. From the 1980s onward, Burkhardt gave landscape architects new insights into the perception and reality of the landscape and urban space.
