Basel Social Club 2026: Eva Papamargariti and Saša Tkačenko
- Back to news
We are thrilled to announce our participation in the upcoming edition of Basel Social Club: The Office, where we will present works by Eva Papamargariti (b. 1987, Greece) and Saša Tkačenko (b. 1979, Serbia).
On view: 14 June – 20 June
Basel Social Club, Mauerstrasse, Basel
This year’s edition occupies a vacant office building near Basel SBB, activating its floors through exhibitions, performances, music, gastronomy, and informal encounters. Positioning the office as both subject and scenography, Basel Social Club engages with evolving conditions of work, time, and production in the context of digitalization, remote infrastructures, and artificial intelligence.
“This year’s edition, titled “Office” reconsiders the venue not as a site of production, but as a space for reflection. Once a symbol of efficiency and growth, the office today reflects shifting realities shaped by digitalization, remote work, and artificial intelligence. Basel Social Club engages this condition through exhibitions, performances, music, gastronomy, and informal encounters that explore questions of labor, time, productivity, and rest. Unfolding vertically across the building’s stacked floors, the architecture becomes part of the curatorial framework. Spatial layers and circulation routes echo contemporary notions of the “underground” — as both a site of cultural resistance and a metaphor for the hidden structures and tensions of late capitalism.”
We look forward to contributing to this site-responsive program and to welcoming you in Basel.
