More than 600 visitors attended the public artist teardown residency Haus#99 in the Basel Neumatt district near the border with Allschwil/BL (Neuweilerstrasse 99). Twelve artists from the most different disciplines made life, work and visit in this house a unique experience. Open from from noon till midnight. A documentary of Haus#99 was exhibitied in «Forum Basel», curated by Andreas Ruby and Stéphanie Savio at S AM Schweizerisches Architekturmuseum in 2017: «The more heterogeneous societies become, the more important it is to provide open spaces where we can experience ourselves as part of a community». Thomas Jeppe’s underground gallery «Unsere Umwelt», produced in the garden of Haus#99, was followed by «Unsere Umwelt», a collaborative exhibition taking place at Clarastrasse 13, a gutted building formerly occupied by a generic clothing store. /// Umwelt Mode Film 2017, Alekxander Gebrezgabiher, Video 08:49 min.
