Castaway Modernism
Kunstmuseum Basel

The exhibition illuminates the purchases of «degenerate» art in the summer of 1939.

Tweaklab was commissioned with the planning and installation of the eight digital information boards with texts and pictures, which are combined with historical photographs and current texts on the subject, and with the projection of b/w photographs of three missing paintings by the artists Otto Dix and Oskar Schlemmer. The photographs are projected on the walls of the hall in their original size. A Sildesshow with texts and quotes from contemporary witnesses plays on the big wall of opinion.

Curators: Eva Reifert, Tessa Rosebrock
Location: Kunstmuseum Basel, Neubau

Duration of the exhibition: 22.10.2022–19.02.2023
