ChertLüdde is taking part in Basel Exclusive, a new initiative by , which presents a selection of artworks unveiled at the fair’s opening this June.

Among the selection are the historic works of Clemen Parrocchetti, which have rarely been exhibited to the public, but are enjoying renewed interest from museums in recent years.

The Italian artist Clemen Parrocchetti (1923-2016) was an active participant in the feminist liberation movement in Italy in the 1960s and 1970s, a period that is still considered one of the most heated moments in the country’s history in the fight for women’s rights. This translated into a strong visual grammar of domestic objects and the female body, repurposed into the subversive tools of denunciation and protest.

“(Future) Paradise Gardens“
10th edition of Biennale Gherdëina
Val Gardena, Dolomites
Curated by
31 May – 13 September 2026

The biennial explores the dialogue between contemporary artistic practices and the local context, its people, communities, and environment. In (Future) Paradise Gardens, the curator Samuel Leuenberger presents various chapters exploring the idea of the garden, which act as a metaphor for themes of Commoning, Divine Love and Growth, Violent Garden, Q***r Ecology, Botanical and Gardens as Spaces for Reflection and Poetry. These are spread across three main exhibition sites throughout the Val Gardena.

Visit us today at the Gallery for Petrit Halilaj’s exhibition “Who does the earth belong to while painting the wind?!”
Within the exhibition, presents a new sculptural series called “Si bishri I Arnautëve / Like the tail of Arnauts“, 2026

This sculptural series exaggerates animal tails, particularly those of horses, using brass and synthetic hair. Much like the artist’s series of brass bird legs crowned with distinct feathers, each sculpture features a uniquely styled tail, giving it an individual character.

The series draws on discretionary caricatures historically used to justify violence and discrimination against the Albanian-Kosovar population. In 1913, Serbian Prime Minister Vladan Đorđević published a text that dehumanized Albanians, claiming they retained animal-like traits, including tails, well into the 19th century. Such eugenic rhetoric formed part of a broader discourse that contributed to systemic violence, suppression, and the attempted erasure of Albanian identity. However, as a Kosovar himself, Halilaj ridicules such statements, refusing to let these dehumanizing claims go unaddressed while simultaneously reappropriating the imagery of Albanian Kosovars.

Within the exhibition, the sculpture give context to the central conflict addressed in the exhibition though the burnt and vandalized storage container.

The folding screen divides – and connects. It creates intimacy without enclosing, structures space without fixing it. Foldable, mobile, and permeable, it becomes an instrument of a spatial in-between. As an object, the screen has long stood for thresholds, transitions, and possibilities – in architecture as well as in art history. As a mobile, permeable element, it subverts the idea of a fixed, closed space and instead brings processes of sharing, shifting, and reordering into focus. It operates through transparency and suggestion: it conceals and reveals at the same time, arousing curiosity about what lies behind it and opening associations between intimacy and staging.

The exhibition will also present work by Georgina Hill & David Douard.

Today we’re opening two new exhibitions at the gallery, and as we wait for the moment to celebrate with everyone around us, we’d like to take a moment to offer an heartfelt and sincere THANK YOU to those who make things happen.

Exhibitions don’t just appear by magic; works of art don’t find their way onto the walls on their own, and ideas don’t spring from thin air either.

Thank you for all the care and dedication, for the human intelligence that, with nurturing and respect, day after day, makes this magic possible.
Happy Labor Day to everyone!

As part of the our new exhibition with Robert Rehfeldt opens on May 1, International Workers’ Day.

Celebrating more than ten years since our first exhibition with Robert Rehfeldt (“HOME ARCHIVES: Paulo Bruscky & Robert Rehfeldt’s Mail Art Exchanges from East Berlin to South America”, curated by Zanna Gilbert - - January-March 2015), today, on this special occasion, we remember the artist’s significant legacy in community work, in creating and maintaining networks among international artists, and in promoting collaborative ideas that empathize collective agency versus individual authority.

(...) “One serial self-portrait showing the artist in his studio and stamped with the slogan “ARTWORKERS UNITE” was sent by Rehfeldt to Bruscky on November 3, 1977. The images underneath the words were repeatedly copied from the same matrix until the artist’s figure became distorted and difficult to decipher. By contrast, the stamped phrase calling for the solidarity of “artworkers” stands out clearly. In a final ironic gesture, Rehfeldt stamped “Original” on the image most faded by the copying process, a reference to the rejection of unique works in mail art.” (extract from Zanna Gilbert “The Human Letter: Mail Art Exchanges between East Berlin and Northeast Brazil in the 1970s” - Fillip n.20, fall 2015

Today, Saturday, April 25, 2026

Join a barbecue cooking session on the terrace of starting at 2:00 p.m. with

The Brenda oven-sculpture will be in operation, serving pizza and other snacks to visitors at DAS MINSK.

at 2:00 pm talk with Guest: Raphael Fonseca , art historian - together with the curatorial team Daniel Milnes and Anna Schneider

As part of the Collective Osmosis exhibition at DAS MINSK, Oscar Murillo @ invites you to participate in his collective painting process.
Starting April 25, all visitors will be able to participate in the creation of a new collaborative outdoor work and become part of the work’s constantly evolving context.
Collective painting is a central component of Oscar Murillo’s artistic practice and is conceived as an open, collective working process.

The barbecue marks the start of this participatory phase.
Brenda is a sculptural oven named after Chaile’s sister, featuring stylized facial elements reminiscent of pre-Columbian artefacts from his native region of Tucumán. Like many of his pieces, Brenda bridges form and function—at times serving as a silent guardian of cooking rituals, and at others as a working oven that invites people to gather, bake bread, and share in the rhythms of communal life.

As part of the schedule, our exhibitions open on May 1, International Workers’ Day.

For the vernissage for Petrit Halilaj’s exhibition “Who does the earth belong to while painting the wind?!” , has organised live music, food & storytelling from Kosovë.

As we celebrate the opening of Halilaj’s new exhibition, join us as we look back at the Kosovar emancipation that has manifested itself artistically, collectively, culturally, and politically since the country’s independence. The event will feature traditional songs from rural weddings, gojëdhana (gifts of words, or Albanian storytelling), and culinary delights such as flija, qaj, and rakija, highlighting folkloric elements deeply rooted in the artists’ homeland, Kosovo, and the broader Balkan region. The evening blends contemporary art and popular culture in a day dedicated to remembering the shared struggle for better working and living conditions.
