Vincent Gallais' artistic universe is created from simple gestures and modest materials. His works are born from recycled objects, fragments of materials, photographs and drawings that he arranges, combines or subtracts. Between construction and erasure, he composes structures where each layer retains the memory of the gesture.

For this exhibition, his installations unfold like landscapes to be explored, made up of tensions and breaths, where gestures leave a trace and open up a horizon.

Since the beginning of the year, the association Le Tube has been supporting Vincent Gallais in the conception, construction and presentation of this solo exhibition at the Atelier Mondial.

Guided tours: 12, 16, 19 and 23 October at 4pm
Closing reception: Sunday, 26 October 2025, 1-3pm

Constellationsof Hope, Sharing Grounds brings together four artist/activist collectives active between Asia and Europe. Through socially engaged and activist art, they address social justice, particularly those concerning migrants, diasporic populations and sexual minorities, while cultivating solidarity, autonomy, and care. Rather than focusing on individual works, the exhibition foregrounds collectivity itself as an artistic infrastructure, supporting activist practices, fostering transnational connections, and inspiring imaginative futures. It is a gathering across distance: a journey beyond borders, an encounter across continents, and a weaving of connection and friendship.

This exhibition is the final outcome of Li Jia's residency in Basel.

In the interests of economic development in South American countries, the Amazon rainforest has long been viewed primarily as an exploitable source of raw materials. Broken Landscape, an immersive and interactive installation by Verena Metz Zumaran, presents a specific case from the area of La Pampa, Perú. It illustrates an urgent truth: that the fragile ground beneath us — socially, ecologically and politically — can no longer sustain this destructive model.

An Exhibition in collaboration with Atelier Mondial and Im Schaufenster.
