Kunsthaus Baselland is temporarily closed
Discover our education program from home with artist talks, cultural calls and our quarantine-lockdown-line!
In accordance with guidelines from the federal and cantonal authorities, the Kunsthaus Baselland is currently closed. The health of our visitors and staff is our highest priority. At the same time we remain convinced that culture is essential in these times. We would therefore like to continue to provide you with our arts education services and bring art and culture to your home in the coming weeks. We would love for you to take full advantage of our program from home, which is outlined below. If you have any questions or require assistance, please contact us by email. The Kunsthaus team and the director Ines Goldbach wish you all the best and above all good health!

Kunsthaus Baselland Program 2020
Please find all information about the upcoming exhibitions in our exhibition program 2021.
Artists’ Studio Visits
For artists, working alone in the studio for days, weeks, and even months at a time is not only normal but often a prerequisite for producing creative and innovative ideas and artworks. Can we also draw inspiration from this ourselves? In the last few weeks we visited a small selection of artists who have already prepared for exhibitions but are currently unable to present their work to the public. By sharing our studio visits with you, we want to help these artists gain visibility and also keep the buzz about their postponed exhibitions alive.
Many many thanks to all the artists involved Monika Dillier, Bruno Seitz, Julia Steiner, Sarina Scheidegger, Dorian Sari and Simone Steinegger.
With the support of the Stanley Thomas Johnson Foundation, new interviews could have been broadcasted from mid-November, allowing more artists to be discovered online. With Brigham Baker, Simone Holliger, Aida Kidane, Monica Klingler and Doris Lasch.
Watch the eleventh episode where artist Doris Lasch is in conversation with Ines Goldbach, Director Kunsthaus Baselland.
New Kunsthaus Baselland: Building application submitted!
The Kunsthaus Baselland Foundation and the Kunstverein Baselland have submitted a building application for the new Kunsthaus Baselland at the Dreispitz. The building’s completion is scheduled for early summer 2023. While base financing is secured, further donations are needed for exhibition infrastructure inter alia. The new Kunsthaus Baselland meets the most modern in museum presentation requirements for comtemporary art and aims to play an important role in the up and coming Dreispitz area with its many other cultural institutions.
