His collection, the "Basel Public Art Collection", comprises around 4,000 paintings, sculptures, installations and videos as well as 300,000 drawings and prints from seven centuries, making it the largest public art collection in Switzerland. The museum is located next to the former building of the Swiss National Bank at St. Alban-Graben in Basel. The neoclassical museum building was planned and implemented from 1931 to 1936 by Paul Bonatz and Rudolf Christ. An extension of the architecture firm Christ & Gantenbein was opened in 2016.
