Experiencing Contemporary Art and Local Discourse in Basel
The exhibition brings together diverse artistic perspectives that bridge local realities and global networks. Curated by Ines Goldbach and Ines Tondar, alongside curatorial assistant Clara Soiron, Regionale 25 explores what it means to create art across cultural and social boundaries. The showcased pieces examine urgent contemporary themes, ranging from urban ecosystems and public space to memory, language, and historical power structures.
In addition to the main galleries, this year's edition features a special collaboration with the Masterstudio Design of the Hochschule für Gestaltung und Kunst, featuring newly developed objects created by Master's students specifically for the Kunsthaus shop. Media coverage from outlets such as Badische Zeitung, art.tv, bz Basel, Basler Zeitung, Radio X, and bajour highlights the regional significance of the anniversary program.
