DC OPEN + EXHIBITION OPENING I 4.9.–6.9.2026

We are delighted to be taking part in Düsseldorf Cologne Open Galleries Weekend from September 4–6 and to celebrate the opening of our new exhibition, “Inge Schmidt. bis dann, plastische Stücke und Zeichnungen,” with you. The artists will be present tonight!

The simple, everyday materials are playing a significant role in her work: thin lumber, cardboard, corrugated cardboard, glue, tape, string, or wire. The artist herself refers to them as “insignificant materials.” It is precisely their unassuming nature that allows for free and unencumbered work. They carry no preconceived meaning or special material aura, but remain open to change, connection, and transformation.

Inge Schmidt’s works are closely connected to their surroundings. Architecture does not serve as a backdrop, but rather as a counterpart: walls, floors, edges, and proportions are incorporated into the composition. Straddling the line between structure and openness, her works give shape to the space without dominating it.

Opening hours during DC Open:

FRI 4.9. 6–9 pm I Exhibition Opening
SAT 5.9. 1–7 pm
SUN 6.9. 1–5 pm

We look forward to welcoming you!

DC OPEN + EXHIBITION OPENING I 4.9.–6.9.2026

We are delighted to be taking part in Düsseldorf Cologne Open Galleries Weekend from September 4–6 and to celebrate the opening of our new exhibition, “Inge Schmidt. bis dann, plastische Stücke und Zeichnungen,” with you. The artists will be present on Friday, September 4.

Inge Schmidt was born in Bonn in 1944 and lives and works in Cologne. Her works are characterized by an extraordinary focus on material, form, and spatial presence. Without relying on superficial effects, she creates sculptures and objects whose impact stems from the precision of their composition and her sensitive handling of the respective materials. Each work reveals its own internal order and invites the viewer to engage with the subtle relationships between form, surface, line, and space.

The exhibition at boa-basedonart offers insight into a unique body of work developed over decades and an extraordinary artistic practice characterized by a consistent exploration of material, form, and space.

Opening hours during DC Open:

FRI 4.9. 6–9 pm I Exhibition Opening
SAT 5.9. 1–7 pm
SUN 6.9. 1–5 pm

We look forward to welcoming you!

Now on view
Reunion is an outstanding artist’s book by Shigeko Kubota, published in 1970. Documenting the March 1968 performance Reunion in Toronto, the book pairs Kubota’s black-and-white photographs of Marcel Duchamp and John Cage playing chess on an electronic chessboard with Cage’s text 36 Acrostics re and not re Duchamp and a blue flexi-disc recording of the event. The flexi-disc represents the only publicly released audio recording of Reunion, a performance in which chess games between Cage and the Duchamps determined the form and spatial distribution of electronic music composed by David Behrman, Gordon Mumma, David Tudor, and Lowell Cross.

The work is part of the exhibition *After Before*, which brings together works by Hanne Darboven, William Engelen, Shigeko Kubota, Nam June Paik, Ben Patterson, Takako Saito, Hanae Utamura, and others.

SHIFT OF VISION

In der Ausstellung widmet sich die Kunsthalle Augsburg der zeitgenössischen abstrakten Malerei mit einem konzentrierten Blick auf drei ebenso markante wie autonome künstlerische Positionen aus Deutschland: Jutta Haeckel, Peter Krauskopf und Moritz Neuhoff. Trotz ihrer gemeinsamen Verortung im Feld der Abstraktion verfolgen sie jeweils eine höchst individuelle Bildsprache, die in dieser Konstellation einen spannungsvollen und vielschichtigen Dialog entfaltet. Die Ausstellung zeigt Werke aus den letzten Jahren sowie aus der aktuellen Produktion der drei Künstler.

18.04. – 11.10.2026 in der Kunsthalle Augsburg im Glaspalast

After Before

In the face of ongoing shifts, actions become uncertain.
Rituals take the place of meaning.

Works by Hanne Darboven, William Engelen, Shigeko Kubota, Nam June Paik, Ben Patterson, Takako Saito, Hanae Utamura, and others.

In her artistic practice, Hanae Utamura also explores the tension between nature and civilization, in particular the relationship between humans, science and nature. She understands and uses her own body as a conduit. It serves her as a transmitter between the conflicts of human and non-human forces.

The disaster around Fukushima marks a caesura for Utamura. She confronts this turning point with the series „Inverted Horizon“. In 2011, the artist travelled to Japan to the areas affected by the catastrophe and attempted to reflect on the loss of her family. In the tension between the catastrophe and the media spectacle she performed an artistic intervention in which she involved her mother. Tied to her mother with a rope, the artist draws circles in the midst of the destruction as if on an umbilical cord. The photographic works exhibited at basedonart bear witness to this intense confrontation with transience.

Born in Ibaraki, Japan
Currently based in New York, Berlin and Tokyo.

After Before

In times of ongoing shifts, actions become uncertain.

Rituals take the place of meaning.

The exhibition looks at ritual as a way of structuring time and actions, especially in moments where systems become unstable. Repetition, rule, and sequence appear as procedures in which meaning is not fixed, but shifts, holds, or withdraws in the act itself.

Featuring works by Hanne Darboven, William Engelen, Shigeko Kubota, Nam June Paik, Ben Patterson, Takako Saito, Hanae Utamura, and others. Alongside cultural practices such as tea ceremony.

Surface As Field
Pia Fries, Jutta Haeckel, Angelika J. Trojnarski

In Pia Fries’ works, layers of color, superimpositions, and dynamic interventions form the basis of the painting’s structure. The paint condenses into relief-like formations, so that the pictorial space can be physically experienced rather than illusionistic. The white empty spaces of the painting’s background are visible and function as an active counter-space so that the surface unfolds tensions in which color and emptiness enter into a relationship.

Jutta Haeckel destabilizes the traditional closed nature of the canvas by intervening in the structure of the surface. Removed threads, perforations, and working at the front and back of the canvas allow the color to pass through, shift, or seep away. These interventions create a permeable structure in which the structure itself becomes the carrier of the image. Here, the surface becomes an active carrier of the pictorial effect, not a background.

Angelika J. Trojnarski develops her work from her exploration of physical forces and ecological relationships. She translates these questions into painting, working with materials such as paint, lead, soot, and paper fragments. The individual elements remain recognizable, but are interrelated. Layering and superimposition create an image surface that makes processes such as compression, displacement, and transformation visible. The canvas thus becomes a place where natural phenomena are not depicted, but can be experienced.

open 21.03.26 – 02.05.26 | Thu – Fri 2 – 6 pm| Sat 12 – 4 pm and by appointment.
We are closed on May 1.
