It’s already halftime at Basel Social Club 2026! We look forward to seeing you at the fair.
Today we’re spotlighting two works ‘_hey wan_ _o break free’, (2025) and ‘Pu__ing our spiked heel down’, (2025) by Vincent Grange.
In these two works Vincent Grange continues his exploration of q***r history, resistance, and visibility. Inspired by the fictional girl group “The Madwomen of Chaillot”, the works unfold as a narrative of defiance, referencing Stonewall, q***r nightlife, and the ongoing threats against LGBTQIA+ rights. Everyday objects such as cleaning tools and glitter become poetic symbols of rebellion, community, and the refusal of erasure.
We look forward to seeing you in Basel!
Location: Basel Social Club, Erdbeergraben 1, Basel, CH
