Gehiago: Basilea

A kids' Spider-Man lunchbox hangs in front of a single-door fridge. In another, a teddy bear, a pink flip-flop and a glass of orange soda float where the drinks should be. None of these fridges is real: each is a product shot printed on a clear window sticker, mounted on Perspex or mirror and propped on metal brackets like stock for sale.

Gili Tal used to show working fridges stocked with cans. In her bar jobs, she told Ocula, she was asked to pull the cans forward when a fridge was emptying so it looked full. Here you look straight through the fridges to the wall. Between them hang colour-pencil drawings copied from supermarket brochures and developers' renderings of new-build estates.

Come for 17 works that are thin and flat on purpose, not for objects with heft. It closes on 15 November. Entry is CHF 12, including S AM, and Thursdays run to 20:30. The last Espresso Tour, 20 minutes in German, is Sunday 15 November at 3pm.

Ez galdu

  • The Spider-Man fridge

    Look for a kids' Spider-Man lunchbox suspended in front of the glass door of a single-door fridge, the one object standing in for the drinks.

  • Spaces for Everyone (Grass)

    A fridge cloaked in lush green grass lifted from an architect's rendering, printed on the perforated one-way film used on outdoor adverts.

  • Limpid Contemplation, twice

    The title belongs to an empty, see-through fridge three metres wide in Room 1 and to the show's only line drawing, of sliced bread, in Room 2.

  • The Language of Commodities (Three Croissants)

    Three croissants from a supermarket brochure float in an expanse of blue, drawn in colour pencil in hyperreal, near-gaudy colours.

  • Riverside Life

    A colour-pencil drawing Tal made from a developer's render of a new-build space in Woolwich, London, to tie her fridges to new-build landscapes.

Ez joan, baldin eta

You want objects you can walk around: every fridge here is a flat print, not an appliance.
