Das Kunstmuseum nimmt den 100. Geburtstag von Max Kämpf (1912–1982) zum Anlass, dem Basler Künstler eine Ausstellung zu widmen. Aus eigenen Beständen werden Gemälde und Zeichnungen gezeigt, ergänzt um Skulptur und Druckgrafik. Wiederholt hat Max Kämpf Entwürfe für öffentlich ausgeschriebene Aufträge eingereicht, um mit Werken in der Stadt präsent zu sein. So auch in den Jahren 1943/44 anlässlich einer Ausschreibung des Kunstkredits für ein Wandbild im Basler Waisenhaus. Sein «Traumflug» erhielt den ersten Preis, wurde aber nicht ausgeführt, weil die Nähe zwischen Junge und Mädchen moralisch missverstanden wurde. Das Motiv des Reisens der beiden Kinder auf einem Drachen zwischen Tag und Traum steht sinnbildlich für ein Thema, das Max Kämpf in seinen Werken zeit seines Lebens beschäftigte und sich wie ein Leitmotiv durch sein OEuvre zieht: die Erinnerung. Seine Erinnerungsbilder zeigen Bettler, Emigranten und Indianer ebenso wie Knaben zwischen Kindheit und Erwachsenwerden. Bilder wie die «Hölle» thematisieren Erinnerungen an den Krieg. Kämpf ist ein Beobachter, der seinen Blick mit naiver Neugierde immer wieder auf das Mensch-Sein richtet und das Gesehene mit Pinsel und Farbe auf Leinwand oder mit Zeichenstift auf Papier festhält. Die dabei entstehenden Bilder entsprechen weniger einer äusseren Wirklichkeit, sondern spiegeln vielmehr im Gedächtnis des Künstlers gespeicherte Erinnerungen wider. Max Kämpf: «Ich habe eigentlich immer nur gemalt, um bestimmte Bilder oder Erinnerungen loszuwerden. Die Ausstellung bietet einen Querschnitt seines facettenreiches OEuvres.]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Sat, 11 Feb 2012 00:00:00 +0100 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=11346 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=9839 Kunstmuseum Basel

Róza El-Hassan (b. Budapest 1966) is one of the most prominent representatives of contemporary Hungarian art. Over the past twenty years, the artist’s drawings, objects, installations, and actions have earned her international renown. Drawing is a constant companion of her art and at times its central element. In the earlier works, a conceptual approach predominates; since 1999, she has created diary-like drawings and collages. Her works on paper are always light and delicate, remaining open and tentative. For the artist, who has Syrian as well as Hungarian roots, drawing as a research technique always also implies a quest for her own identity. Between ornament and protest, her drawings negotiate fundamental issues of artistic autonomy, political relevance, and aesthetic aspiration.]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Fri, 10 Feb 2012 00:00:00 +0100 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=9839 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=11301 Skulpturhalle Basel

Der Basler Graphiker Michal Kyhos verändert Bilder auf einfache, aber effektvolle Art: Er faltet sie. Für die Ausstellung in der Skulpturhalle Basel falten Michal Kyhos und Stefan Thomann Plakate und Fotografien von antiken Denkmälern und verfremden so bekannte Ansichten. Durch die Reduktion der Bilder auf einzelne Faltenbahnen sehen wir die antiken Kunstwerke aus neuen Blickwinkeln. Die Reduktion passt gut zu den Denkmälern aus der Antike: Viele von ihnen sind nur fragmentarisch überliefert, entfalten aber dennoch eine Aura der Vollkommenheit.]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Tue, 14 Feb 2012 00:00:00 +0100 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=11301 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=11202 Spielzeugmuseum, Dorf- und Rebbaumuseum Riehen

The oeuvre created by the American concept and object artist Edward Kienholz (1927–1994) from the mid-1950s onwards is strongly polarizing and rebellious in character. Central to his work, which from 1972 was executed in collaboration with his wife Nancy Reddin Kienholz, are religion, war, death, sex and the degenerate sides of society. As well as being members of the same generation, Kienholz and Tinguely shared a bond of friendship and of respect for the (differing) radicality of each other’s artistic creativity. The exhibition shows work from the period 1960–1994, notably a number of impressive smaller sculptures in conjunction with a series of the expansive and spectacular “moral tableaus” and, furthermore, the Concept Tableau The American Trip, a work from 1966 co-created and co-signed by Jean Tinguely.

The last decade has seen an incredible growth in the production and distribution of images. The availability of inexpensive production tools has seen an exponential rise in amateur creativity, while the Internet provides a new distribution platform for this kind of production, which previously remained private. Collect the WWWorld sets out to demonstrate how the Internet generation is implementing and developing a practice started in the Sixties by Conceptual Art, and further developed in subsequent decades in the forms of Appropriation Art and postproduction: the practice of exploring, collecting, archiving, manipulating and reusing huge amounts of visual material produced by popular culture and advertising.]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Fri, 09 Mar 2012 00:00:00 +0100 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=11407 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10804 S AM Schweizerisches Architekturmuseum

During the night of New Year’s Eve, December 31, 1922, the first Goetheanum in Dornach burned down, one of the most unusual buildings of its time; the only evidence today giving an impression of the building that had only recently been finished are photos. Produced by Gertrud von Heydebrand-Osthoff, who had studied as a painter, at the beginning of 2011 the photography ended up in the possession of the Basel-Stadt State Archive. The exhibition of SAM features the photo series and its meaning in relation to the reception and popularization of the first cult building in Dornach. Stronger as the subsequent second Goetheanum, the first Goetheanum was erected as a collective building, as a construction by and for a community, which is the second theme of the exhibition, a cooperation of S AM with the Basel-Stadt State Archive.]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Sat, 10 Mar 2012 00:00:00 +0100 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10804 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10119 Cartoonmuseum Basel

Martial Leiter (born 1952 in Fleurier, in the Canton of Jura, Switzerland) is one of the most distinguished Swiss cartoonists. He is an accomplished political cartoonist and a successful independent artist. His black and white drawings raise issues such as modernisation, poverty, environmental destruction, and armed conflicts. Many newspaper readers are familiar with Martial Leiter’s pointed comments on current affairs, rendered in meticulously hatched drawings for daily and weekly newspapers such as the «Weltwoche», «Tages-Anzeiger» and «Wochenzeitung (WoZ)». For the Cartoonmuseum Basel, Martial Leiter will create a contemporary version of the Basel Danse Macabre.

Caffeine belongs to our everyday life. It's found in food and drinks and it's used in cosmetic and medical products. Caffeine is popular and polarised. For some its pure pleasure, for others an addiction. The exhibition leads us into the huge area of the powerful drug. How does this substance move so effortless between addiction, pleasure and medical remedies? The exhibition shows how the first caffeinated products (coffee and tea) became so popular in the western world. It gives an insight into the complex history of the caffeine research.

Nowadays the monument stands in front of the east gate and, surrounded by an idyllic animal park with rare old breeds, transports visitors back in time.

Das Atelier Hauert-Reichmuth und Daniel Göttin präsentieren ihre Arbeiten in der Ausstellung Juxtaposition. Dieser lateinische Ausstellungstitel bezeichnet zwei Dinge oder Befindlichkeiten, die sehr nahe beieinanderliegen, aber voneinander unabhängig sind oder sich sogar völlig unterscheiden können. Dies ist bei den drei gezeigten Künstlern Daniel Reichmuth und Sibylle Hauert einerseits und Daniel Göttin andererseits der Fall. Alle drei Künstler verwenden einfache Elemente, Formen und Ausdrucksmittel. Sie arbeiten mit ähnlichen Komponenten wie Punkt, Linie oder Fläche, doch unterscheiden sie sich in ihren Intentionen. Hauert-Reichmuth entwickeln bewegte Licht- und Klangbilder, die als reale, dreidimensionale Pixelanordnungen oder grosse Soundmembranen wie Objekte in den Raum greifen. In der Reduktion auf wenige Pixel oder auf eine sichtbare Lautsprecher-Schwingung lenken sie den Blick auf die Grundelemente der Bild- oder Klanggenerierung. Werden diese einzelnen Licht- und Klangbilder aber aneinandergereiht und in Bewegung versetzt, entstehen Raum-Zeit-Kompositionen mit narrativem Potenzial. Hauert-Reichmuth arbeiten zusammen mit Volker Böhm, Musiker und Programmierer. Daniel Göttin beschäftigt sich mit Raum. Mit seinen Interventionen reagiert er auf Räume und erforscht deren Gesetzmässigkeiten. Dadurch entsteht ein Dialog zwischen dem Bestehenden und seinen Werken, die zum Teil neue Akzente im Raum schaffen, Raumbeziehungen entstehen lassen oder einen Dialog zwischen Werk und Architektur evozieren. Göttin verwendet für seine Interventionen oft industrielle Halbfabrikate wie Klebebänder, Papier, Schaumstoffplatten oder Holzbalken. Die Arbeiten von Hauert-Reichmuth und Göttin weisen Gemeinsamkeiten auf, sind verschiedene Ausdrucksformen ähnlicher Überlegungen. Trotzdem berühren sie sich nur scheinbar, wie dies der Ausstellungstitel Juxtaposition umschreibt. Die Ausstellung wird kuratiert von Sue Irion und Dominique Mollet]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Tue, 20 Dec 2011 00:00:00 +0100 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=11379 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=11401 Ausstellungsraum Klingental

In the early 1870s, Auguste Renoir was among the French painters who founded Impressionism. With bright palette, loose brushwork and motifs from modern urban life and social recreation in natural settings, he and his fellow innovators wrote art history. The Kunstmuseum Basel now presents a grand survey exhibition, the first show to focus on the artist’s surprisingly complex early work, up to and including the first eminent Impressionist paintings. ]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Fri, 24 Jun 2011 00:00:00 +0200 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=9840 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10361 Museum.BL, Liestal

The Museum.BL is dedicating an interactive exhibition to lies and scams. For lies make the world go ‘round, even though morality essentially demands honesty. It is said that we all bend the truth to our own ends as many as 200 times a day. These little games run the gambit from minor fibs to great big fat nasty lies. Lies are in our blood. Even some animals and plants are successful tricksters. But why do people lie? What emotions drive the desire to lie, and how do the duped feel?

The special exhibition shows and explains christening customs of centuries past. It provides answers to questions about the origin of the different customs and traditions and supplies vivid examples of their meaning. Among these are elaborate christening robes, finely made silk christening cushions with Brussels lace and the traditional christening cards. The exhibition is also devoted to christening gifts. The first evidence of the custom of godparents giving gifts comes from 13th century Germany. Among the most popular gifts given by godparents to this day are money or mugs, cutlery and christening plates that accompany the godchild his or her whole life long. Or the Louis d’or, a French gold coin, given to newly christened children in France as a foundation for later wealth. Christening ranks among the classic symbolic ecclesiastical ceremonies in all Christian denominations but takes different forms. The religious rite has its origin in the New Testament and signifies the beginning of life as a Christian. The special exhibition shows hundreds of multifaceted exhibits from the last three hundred years. Among the objects from the time of the christening to the godchild’s first birthday are popular collector’s items such as silver rattles with corals in countless shapes and with diverse motifs, prams and bassinets as well as cradles.]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Sat, 21 Apr 2012 00:00:00 +0200 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10162 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=11153 Museum der Kulturen Basel

The Museum für Gegenwartskunst is delighted to present the first Swiss survey exhibition of the art created by the British artist Hilary Lloyd (b. 1964; lives and works in London). Lloyd already spent a year in Basel in 2001 as a visiting fellow at Stiftung Laurenz-Haus, and so her new video works explore a terrain the artist is familiar with: the city and its surroundings. Working primarily with a video camera, she records pictures of the modern city and its implicit potential as a site of voyeurism and fetishism. In studies sometimes created over extended periods of time, she produces haunting and sexually ambivalent films that show people engaged in the specific rituals of their everyday lives: workmen, waiters, skaters, and clubbers become the subjects of her investigation.

Unmittelbar am Rheinufer gelegen, nimmt die Kaserne heute eine prägnante Stellung in der Kleinbasler Skyline ein. Das von Johann Jakob Stehlin 1860–63 auf dem Gelände des ehemaligen Klosters Klingental fertig gestellte Gebäude diente anfangs militärischen Zwecken. Mit dem Rückzug der Armee im Jahr 1966 begann die Phase der rein zivilen Nutzung, die bis heute andauert. Die Ausstellung widmet sich erstmals der Geschichte dieses Kleinbasler Baudenkmals. Sie befasst sich damit, wie dieser Ort zur Kaserne wurde, weshalb die Anlage ihre architektonische Gestalt gefunden hat, welche Bedeutung dem Bauwerk im Stadtbild zukommt, wie die Kaserne von der Armee verwendet wurde und wie sie seither genutzt wird. Die Kleinbasler Bau- und Sozialgeschichte wird genauso thematisiert wie das Verhältnis Basels zum jungen Bundesstaat, das Wirken des Architekten J. J.

The panorama (from the Greek for “seeing everything”) flourished in the nineteenth century. Grand rotundas were built that allowed spectators to “travel the world” while staying at home. Bird’s eye views elevated the visitors above mountains, cities, wide valleys and the rivers that flowed through them; the desire was to see everything and capture it in images. Based on a selection from the collections of the Kupferstichkabinett, the exhibition “Panoramas—Measured Worlds” begins with the history that led up to the panorama: Since when, and in which contexts, were pictures created to stage these seemingly endless worlds? Which different forms of the panorama evolved in the nineteenth century? Some were intended for commercial distribution, others helped artists as well as geologists understand the layering of rock strata in the Alps, rapid watercolor sketches noting the time of day recorded a particular atmosphere.]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Fri, 24 Jun 2011 00:00:00 +0200 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=9841 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10364 Museum Tinguely

Counter-reliefs – Tower – "Letatlin": These were the three most important creations of the Russian artist Vladimir Tatlin (1885–1953). They stand at the centre of this exhibition, which is the first for 20 years to offer a comprehensive survey of the work of an artist who was one of the most important figures of the early twentieth-century avant-garde. Many of the most important loans have come from major Russian museums. With his counter-reliefs Tatlin not only played havoc with the laws of painting but also brought into being a new artistic genre and forged a new understanding of artistic material. Furthermore, with his visionary, unrealized project for a monumental tower to be devoted to the propagation of the ideals and goals of the Russian Revolution, he won himself a place in the dreams of generations of architects, visual artists and writers, bursting the boundaries between fields of art by introducing elements such as rhythm and movement into the field of sculpture. With the "Letatlin", a utopian flying machine that never left the ground, his intention was to give individuals the feeling of flying.]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Tue, 05 Jun 2012 00:00:00 +0200 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10364 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=11486 Fondation Beyeler, Riehen/Basel

Winsor McCay (1847–1934) is one of the most important forerunners of today’s cartoons. His visionary images from the early 20th century still inspire artists today. His series of surreal dreams, published in American Sunday newspapers, were particularly fascinating to millions of readers around 1900. And, almost incidentally, Winsor McCay created the first ever animated cartoons in 1911 and 1912 – no less than 17 years before Walt Disney’s first successful sound film «Steamboat Willie».]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Thu, 11 Aug 2011 00:00:00 +0200 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10120 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=11254 Museum der Kulturen Basel

"Expeditions" presents six expeditions initiated by the Museum der Kulturen. They are a crucial determinant of the past and present focus of the Museum's collecting and research activities. These expeditions set out from Basel to explore the wide world, and returned to Basel with a wealth of knowledge and ethnographic objects, and a timeless fascination with otherness. This confrontation with strange worlds has permanently influenced our conscious interaction with cultural differences and similarities – and continues to do so. ]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Fri, 29 Jun 2012 00:00:00 +0200 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=11254 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10086 Museum am Burghof, Lörrach

In 1960s Italy, emerging artists such as Alighiero Boetti, Luciano Fabro, Jannis Kounellis, Mario Merz, and Michelangelo Pistoletto formed a new movement destined for fame. The distinctive feature of their art is the use of simple means and humble materials. In stylistic anarchy, pictures, objects, installations and performances seek to find a way back to natural processes and laws. The exhibition features numerous key works from the collection which Ingvild Goetz has built over many years and which attracts strong interest nowadays.]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Fri, 24 Jun 2011 00:00:00 +0200 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=9842 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=11177 Museum der Kulturen Basel

For many centuries, people have set out on their travels to find their inner selves as they go. The pilgrimage has been rediscovered in recent years, as "pilgrim travel".

Guilty or not guilty, illegal or legal. Our perceptions of crime and criminals are changing all the time. Some types of behaviour that were once outlawed have now been decriminalized. Others, such as murder, have always been indictable offences. This exhibition looks at criminality, crime and criminal justice through the ages. It takes visitors on a journey through legal history passing several milestone cases en route. These include the arraignment of a cockerel, various cases of infanticide, witch trials, rebellion, high-profile crimes such as the bank robbery committed by Sandweg and Velte and even large police operations such as that during the 1969 tram sit-in. The criminal cases presented each shed light on how people lived at the time, how felons were dealt with and the prevailing notions of guilt, the law and justice.]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Thu, 20 Sep 2012 00:00:00 +0200 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10234 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10214 Museum am Burghof, Lörrach

Die Doppelausstellung im Herbst gilt den seit ein paar Jahren in Basel lebenden Diana Dodson (1963) und Reto Leibundgut (1966), deren künstlerische Ansätze wesentliche Gemeinsamkeiten, wie das Einsetzen einer Vielfalt von Medien, Techniken und Materialien, sowie die Auseinandersetzung mit bestimmten Themen ambivalenten Inhalts prägen. Ihr Interesse für Manifestationen des «Häuslichen», bzw. der «Idylle» durch Aneignung und Verfremdung von Fundobjekten, die Verwandlung des Häuslichen in Naturkonstruktionen, künstliche Idylle und Naturevokationen, sowie Verschiebungen von zeitlichen und räumlichen Dimensionen bestimmen ebenfalls ihr künstlerisches Schaffen und dessen Ästhetik. In ihren Installationen, Videoarbeiten und ihrer Malerei erkundet Diana Dodson die Domestizierung von Natur und Naturkräften, resp. prosaische Zeichen häuslicher Gemütlichkeit und Behaglichkeit, deren Künstlichkeit sich in der Wahl und Ambivalenz der Materialien entlarvt. In naturalistischer Manier entstehen des weitern beinahe monochrom wirkende Bilder, welche Machtstrukturen, das Verhältnis von Macht und Individuum befragen, bzw. Werke, die von Natur- und Alltagskatastrophen, von Technik, Wissenschaft und Kultur handeln und zwischen Realität und Illusion oszillieren. Die Welt des «Häuslichen», ihre verwegene Nähe zum «Bürgerlichen», zum Kitsch und ihr Verhältnis zur Natur bilden auch den Kern von Reto Leibundguts Schaffen. Mit Möbeln und Objekten aus dem vertrauten häuslichen Kontext, wie Gobelin-Teppiche, Wandverkleidungen, Holzintarsien, Ledersofas und trivialem Verpackungsmaterial entstehen Werke von erotischen Anspielungen und ambivalenten Stimmungen, schillernde Naturevokationen und ornamentale Stillleben, sublime Gesten des Erhabenen in gekonnter einheimischer handwerklicher Tradition, deren «Fake» sich im «Trashigen» der Materialien, in der Schäbigkeit der Oberflächenbeschaffenheit entpuppt und Aspekte der Gegenwartskultur offen legt. Die Ausstellung wird von Kiki Seiler-Michalitsi kuratiert]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Tue, 20 Dec 2011 00:00:00 +0100 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=11381 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10230 Vitra Design Museum, Weil am Rhein

Alongside van Gogh, Cézanne and Gauguin, Edgar Degas (1834-1917) is considered one of the major pioneers of modern art. Yet Degas exhibitions are a rare occurrence. After putting Impressionism behind him in about 1880, Degas reached the undoubted culmination of his art in his daring and unique late work. The Fondation Beyeler's comprehensive exhibition is devoted to this late work with its richness of techniques and motifs, presenting renowned depictions of dancers and jockeys, female nudes and landscapes.]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Sun, 30 Sep 2012 00:00:00 +0200 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10509 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=9695 Antikenmuseum Basel und Sammlung Ludwig

200 years ago this year, the Swiss-born explorer Johann Ludwig Burckhardt alias Sheikh Ibrahim rediscovered the city of Petra: a marvel in the Jordanian desert that had been forgotten by the outside world for centuries. Burckhardt’s rediscovery laid the cornerstone for the exploration of the mysterious city, which today is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Petra was the capital of the Nabataeans. This ancient nomadic people settled in the desert more than 2,000 years ago and turned a remote valley into a vibrant city with impressive monuments and a well-developed water collection system. The exhibition will highlight some of the most important archaeological discoveries from ancient Petra. It will present loaned artefacts from various museums in Jordan, accompanied by video and virtual reality. Together they showcase the trading and cultural connections of the Nabataeans and how they managed to build and irrigate a flourishing city in what is today one of the most arid areas of the world. The exhibition also features stunning works of art from Petra that are characterised by a variety of styles, including the well-known Greek and Roman as well as more abstract forms. In cooperation with the Department of Antiquites of Jordan and the Jordan Museum.]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=9695 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10353 Kunstmuseum Basel, Museum für Gegenwartskunst

In 1995/96, the American artist Robert Gober created the elaborate installation Split Wall with Drains specifically for the ground-floor hall at the Museum für Gegenwartskunst. The work will now be reassembled to form the center of an exhibition primarily dedicated to the works by Gober contained in the museum’s own collections and the Emanuel Hoffmann Foundation’s holdings. After the grand survey exhibition held at the Basler Schaulager in 2007, the new show will offer audiences another opportunity to explore this eminent oeuvre, which is devoted to the production of replicas of domestic objects such as sinks, fireplaces, and drains as well as effigies of individual body parts and specific spaces with institutional or religious connotations, complemented here by a set of works selected by the artist himself.]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Fri, 05 Oct 2012 00:00:00 +0200 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10353 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=9844 Kunstmuseum Basel

Markus Raetz (b. 1941) is the most renowned Swiss contemporary artist of his generation. After participating in the 1968 and 1972 Documentas in Kassel, he has shown his art internationally. In addition to a close engagement with drawing, the artist’s oeuvre spans a wide variety of media (sculptures, installations, kinetic objects, etc.), with a consistent focus on the phenomenon of perception. It is not what is represented that matters most, but the way we look at it. Working in close collaboration with the artist, we have produced this first retrospective of his drawings, which also offers delightful insights into his sketchbooks.]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Fri, 24 Jun 2011 00:00:00 +0200 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=9844 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10161 Puppenhausmuseum

Nine metres long and containing 33,000 scale folds: The snake by Joan Sallas, Europe’s most famous napkin folding expert, is just one of the fascinating objects of Folding world. Table fountains, a ship, a double eagle and a palace are other so-called “showcase dishes” that give visitors a greater understanding of this neglected art. The history of the art of folding can be traced back to ancient times. The custom of producing artistically folded tablecloths and napkins came into being in early 16th century Europe. The first drawings, dated around 1500, originate from northern Italy, probably from Florence. They were modelled on the artistically folded garments of the Renaissance. Visitors can slip into the most famous folded sleeves in the history of art: those of the Mona Lisa. Royalty and heads of state still have their own napkins to this day. How they are folded is a secret. Someone who would be able to cast a little light on them is Joan Sallas, who will produce the folded objects for the special exhibition. He will take three months to finish the unique creations. The exhibition includes a table at which visitors can put their own folding skills to the test, and a film giving an insight into the 500-year-old history of napkin folding. Children aged 6 and over can design and make a folding object in workshops under Joan Sallas’ guidance and take it home with them.]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Sat, 20 Oct 2012 00:00:00 +0200 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10161 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10366 Museum Tinguely

When the Museum Tinguely was opened in October 1996, it already possessed the world’s largest collection of Jean Tinguely’s artistic work. In the past sixteen years the collection has grown considerably, making an updated museum catalogue an urgent imperative. The new trilingual catalogue is to provide a comprehensive survey of the artist and his life, and of the museum’s collection and documentary archive. The publication will be accompanied by an exhibition of the Tinguely Collection, the first for a considerable time, spread over the entire display area. 20 years after Tinguely’s death, the new presentation will also reflect a revised view of his oeuvre. This new perspective will be enriched with an extended educational programme, in order to present the Collection in a new light for the upcoming generation.]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Tue, 06 Nov 2012 00:00:00 +0100 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10366 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10201 Cartoonmuseum Basel

Steve McQueen (born London 1969) is one of the most significant contemporary British artists. The largest exhibition to date of this artist's work will provide a detailed insight into his complex and unusual oeuvre. Installations, photographs and film from every period of his artistic career will be shown. Steve McQueen’s early works are characterised by an experimental approach to cinematic history and the dynamic between black and white, particularly in the aesthetic of silent film, such as French avant garde film and American slapstick. Over the past ten years this aspect of his work has been joined by an exploration of the boundaries between the documentary and the narrative. In 1999 Steve McQueen was awarded the Turner Prize. In 2008 he won the Caméra d’Or at the Cannes Film Festival with the feature film 'Hunger'. In 2009 he represented the United Kingdom at the Venice Biennale and in 2011 he was invited to enter the Venice Film Festival’s competition with his film 'Shame'. The exhibition will be co-organised by Schaulager and The Art Institute of Chicago. Schaulager will publish a comprehensive catalogue to accompany the exhibition.]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) Fri, 09 Sep 2011 00:00:00 +0200 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10499 http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10365 Museum Tinguely

Ad Petersen (b. 1931) was from 1960 to 1990 curator and conservator at the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, where he played a formative role in developing the museum into one of the most important contemporary art galleries of its time. During this period he captured on photograph his encounters and collaborations with numerous international artists (including Christo, Duchamp, Fontana, de Saint Phalle, Kienholz, Oldenburg, Raetz, Rauschenberg, Tinguely, Topor, Saura and many others). His sensitive portraits and other photographs offer extraordinary insights both into the work and also into the private sphere of the artists concerned. This photographic material is complemented by works of art, letters and other documents that provide a record of the often life-long friendships between this fine photographer and exhibition curator and the artists with whom he worked.]]> info@museenbasel.ch (Basel Museum Services) http://www.museenbasel.ch/fr/musees/manifestationdetails.php?id=10365
