Floor Plan and Elevation from On Foot at Basel Social Club.

The show "Counter Loopholes" iterated in our new flexible exhibition space "On Foot“ developed by the Group 321, consisting of Ester Alemayehu Hatle, Emil Hvelplund and Jakub Andrzejewski, together with the Palazzina Team.

From the show, a video (and its project folder) from Ingo Niemann traveled there, while new pieces from Vicente Lesser and a site specific work from Paula Santomé were installed as a cohesive extension of the show, almost as a mirage that creates its own logic.

This project was made with a generous support from Abteilung Kultur Kanton Basel Stadt, Amt für Kultur Kanton Basel Landschaft, Bundesamt für Kultur BAK and the artists.
