On September 19, we’re celebrating our anniversary – 20 years of basis!
Together with the artists supported by basis, we’re opening our doors and inviting you to discover current works, look back on the past 20 years, and explore new perspectives. During open studios, talks, and guided tours, you’ll have the chance to meet artists, learn more about their working processes, and discover the various projects at basis.
The programme will be accompanied by music, snacks, and drinks.
We look forward to celebrating with you!
