Karin Hueber: Inside Out Exhibition

Over the past years Kunsthalle Basel has been inviting several artists to come up with a special work for its back wall next to Elisabethenkirche. After Dan Perjovschi (2007), Piotr Uklanski (2004), Sarah Morris (2002), Karim Noureldin (2001), Franz Ackermann (2000), and Esther Hiepler (1999), now Swiss artist Karin Hueber did a project titled “The Inside Out Exhibition”. With her work she responded to the architectural characteristics of the passageway between Kunsthalle and Elisabethenkirche. She composed shiny and matt varnished wooden planes and volumes mounted on the wall. The geometrical, abstract design reminds through its shapes of wall claddings and furnishings, referring to a fragmented interior.
