Berlin’s analog counterpart to Art Basel’s Digital OVR

Under normal circumstances, we would be in Basel next week. Instead, the Berlin galleries are working on the concept of the Basel online viewing room for the world that is no longer travelling. The initiative stems from the desire to create a context in which the physical experience of art is maintained as a social space. It came into
being in a dialogue amongst colleagues when we realized, that unknowingly we were all working on the same idea: to make it real (artworks that will be present on the online platform in Basel prior to being online have to be experienced in an analog way. The works will be installed, perceived, photographed, filmed, contextualized with other works and written about.)

We cannot replace Basel, but we can offer the artworks a physical space in addition to the virtual platform. On the two preview days of the Basel OVR we offer an analog experience in our gallery.
