Kunstmuseum Basel to Host First Swiss Solo Exhibition by Cao Fei
Cao Fei, born 1978 in Guangzhou, is presenting her first solo exhibition in Switzerland at the Kunstmuseum Basel | Gegenwart. The Chinese artist transforms the museum into an immersive total artwork in the form of a city. Installations and video worlds drawn from the last twenty years of her practice are merged within the space.
The Signal
The presentation at a leading Swiss institution marks a significant step in the artist's European institutional profile for collectors tracking video and new media. It consolidates Cao Fei's standing among peers of her generation by offering a comprehensive view of two decades of production in one site-specific environment. Museums and private collectors may view the show as a benchmark for how immersive formats can synthesize an artist's career trajectory.
