Explore the Karim Noureldin: Tara Contemporary Art Exhibition at von Bartha Basel

In the exhibition Tara, Lausanne-based artist Karim Noureldin presents a multifaceted collection of new works including drawings, ceramics, paintings, textiles, and glass. The exhibition explores the boundaries between art, interior design, and architectural space through a vibrant, rhythmic display of geometric forms.

For his exhibition 'Tara' at von Bartha Basel, artist Karim Noureldin brings together a diverse array of new works that showcase his expansive artistic vocabulary. The exhibition features a multidisciplinary approach, integrating hand-drawn compositions with ceramics, textiles, glass, and furniture design. Noureldin’s work is characterized by its ability to dialogue with the surrounding space, transforming it into a vibrant environment where lines, colors, and textures interact. The central focal point is a four-part glass paravant titled 'Linr', which utilizes a rhythmic diamond pattern to play with light and transparency, further blurring the lines between art object and functional interior element. Beyond individual pieces, the exhibition creates a cohesive, salon-like atmosphere, notably through a collaboration with Paul Michelon of Atelier Pesmois. Visitors encounter a variety of installations, including 'Naq', a series of roughly 150 painted ceramic vessels, and an immersive seating area featuring furniture and lighting works. By bridging the precision of hand-drawn lines with the tactile quality of textiles and ceramics, Noureldin invites visitors to reflect on the tension between structure and spontaneity. The exhibition serves as a testament to the artist's ongoing exploration of how color and form can transcend traditional medium boundaries to create an expansive, living universe.

The exhibition is presented at von Bartha Basel. Please check the official museum website for current visiting hours and general admission policies.
