Elana Gutmann and Megan Rodgers

A very artsy show!

Megan Rodgers, an artist participant and organizer of the "frontofbicycle" Art Exhibition joined us to tell us about the upcoming event.  A show featuring the art of expatriate artists living in Basel, those that attend the Vernissage on Friday 26th of September and the show on Saturday and Sunday (27th and 28th September) will have the chance to meet with the artists and hear about and see (and hopefully buy) their work.  Featured media include Painting, Photography, Sculpture and more...

More information about the artists at the show and the schedule can be found at www.frontofbicycle.com.

New York based, internationally recognized artist Elana Gutmann had a conversation with our correspondent Kevin Richmond about her upcoming show in Basel in October, and about working and creating in the Warteck Atelier.  Known primarily for her oil paintings, she also works with pigment on rice paper and watercolors.
