Evaporating Suns explores myths from the Arabian Gulf
through contemporary art. Based on the concept that the
mythical and the factual are like two sides of the same
coin, the catalogue accompanying the exhibition shows
that myths do not simply convey fictions, but are also
capable of presenting truth much more vividly than statistics
and facts ever could. The publication showcases the
work of 13 contemporary artists from the Arabian peninsula,
who explore the folklore and popular myths of their
homelands, and use cynicism, satire, and fiction to build
their universes and rewrite the parallel history of their
contemporary societies. Completed by essays by authors
from the region, myths are seen here as opportunities
for a new approach to the negotiation of current issues
such as the environment, gender, and social structures of
power.
Founded in 2018 by the artist Sibylle Piermattei-Geiger and her
husband Rocco Piermattei, KULTURSTIFTUNG BASEL H. GEIGER I
KBH.G creates a cultural program with current political or cultural
references. The Basel exhibition space hosts three topical
art exhibitions a year, each of which goes beyond the concepts
of established institutions.
