exhibitions

At Neuf Trois, we offer tan­gi­ble exhi­bi­tions as a plat­form for up-and-com­ing artists. So far, a wide vari­ety of art forms have been cov­ered, includ­ing pho­tog­ra­phy, fash­ion, paint­ing, sculp­ture, graf­fi­ti, sculp­tures, video and sound instal­la­tions and per­for­mances. In the future, we want to main­tain and strength­en the diver­si­ty of art forms.

The exhi­bi­tions aim to facil­i­tate net­work­ing and col­lab­o­ra­tion between artists and col­lec­tives and to give their works a place in the Basel art scene. By sup­port­ing artists and cre­atives, we strive to fos­ter a diverse, inter­dis­ci­pli­nary and cross-gen­er­a­tional envi­ron­ment. We are com­mit­ted to facil­i­tat­ing the exchange of dif­fer­ent per­spec­tives, mak­ing art and its back­ground acces­si­ble and archiv­ing it. The black exhi­bi­tion space at Neuf Trois is curat­ed through spe­cif­ic requests from the artist mem­bers of the col­lec­tive and refers to artis­tic and con­tem­po­rary dis­cours­es.

Nutri­tion­al Con­nec­tions:

At Nutri­tion­al Con­nec­tions, we believe food is far more than sus­te­nance – it‘s a bridge between cul­tures, gen­er­a­tions and com­mu­ni­ties. Our pro­gram explores aspects of the food ecosys­tem, from the sig­nif­i­cance of local ingre­di­ents and inno­v­a­tive solu­tions to food waste, to the preser­va­tion of dias­poric cook­ing tra­di­tions. Our Part­ners dur­ing “Nutri­tion­al Con­nec­tions” will be Nexus Col­lec­tive, WERT!Stätte and many more! Through inspir­ing talks, col­lab­o­ra­tive work­shops and engag­ing exhi­bi­tions, we invite par­tic­i­pants to explore the rich nar­ra­tives, col­lec­tive mem­o­ries and deep cul­tur­al con­nec­tions that food cre­ates. This years exhi­bi­tion pro­gramme is sup­port­ed by Elch Records and the Kan­ton Basel-Stadt Kul­tur.

Obscura Sessions

The Obscu­ra Ses­sions are a dig­i­tal per­for­mance plat­form for young artists with a con­nec­tion to Basel. It acts as a dig­i­tal stage for up-and-com­ing artists who present a diverse range of per­for­mances. The focus is on the diver­si­ty of artis­tic forms of expres­sion and their indi­vid­ual cul­tur­al back­grounds. As our phys­i­cal exhi­bi­tion space only offers lim­it­ed space for the per­ma­nent pre­sen­ta­tion of var­i­ous art forms, espe­cial­ly in the field of music, the idea was born to invite artists to record their per­for­mances and make them dig­i­tal­ly acces­si­ble. Unlike con­ven­tion­al sound and radio stu­dios, the use of a black room pro­vides a neu­tral but fas­ci­nat­ing back­drop for the cre­ative per­for­mance. The for­mat is aimed at fans and sup­port­ers of the invit­ed artists, who can enjoy and share their own pro­duc­tions. In addi­tion, “Obscu­ra Ses­sions” is already enjoy­ing a grow­ing num­ber of inter­est­ed peo­ple fol­low­ing the whole for­mat. 

Our goal is to reach and expand a broad audi­ence of peo­ple inter­est­ed in music, art and cul­ture. The selec­tion of artists is influ­enced by our loca­tion in Basel and con­scious­ly strives for diver­si­ty in art, ori­gin and style. How­ev­er, Obscu­ra Ses­sions is also open to invi­ta­tions and the par­tic­i­pa­tion of artists from oth­er regions in order to pro­mote cross-bor­der net­work­ing.

Obscura Cypher

“Obscu­ra Cypher” is an open per­for­mance plat­form in the field of word acro­bat­ics and part of the var­i­ous Obscu­ra event for­mats at the Neuf Trois col­lec­tive in Basel. It reg­u­lar­ly offers par­tic­i­pants the oppor­tu­ni­ty to dis­cuss every­day impres­sions togeth­er in a play­ful way and to raise aware­ness of their indi­vid­ual and social posi­tion. The focus of the gath­er­ing is on the exchange between peo­ple of dif­fer­ent gen­er­a­tions and ori­gins, the link­ing of dif­fer­ent groups of peo­ple, the cel­e­bra­tion of inter­dis­ci­pli­nary and artis­tic expres­sion with­out great means and the strength­en­ing of self-con­fi­dence in the appro­pri­a­tion of urban space. Through the series of events, the col­lec­tive hopes to pro­vide a safe space for the com­mu­ni­ty in which the inter­per­son­al­ly valu­able basic prin­ci­ples of local hip-hop cul­ture can be lived out and com­mu­ni­cat­ed. 

This video is pure­ly a doc­u­men­ta­tion of the event and is not intend­ed to be a final for­mat. With a view to immer­sive expe­ri­ences, the col­lec­tive is look­ing for­ward to your active par­tic­i­pa­tion! This years Obscu­ra Cypher series is sup­port­ed by Elch Records and the Kan­ton Basel-Stadt Kul­tur.

Obscura Tapes

With Obscu­ra Tapes, DJs and music col­lec­tors have the oppor­tu­ni­ty to play a sequence of select­ed pieces of music in front of a sta­t­ic cam­era. Care­ful­ly pre­pared com­po­si­tions are cre­at­ed with­out the influ­ence of an audi­ence. The focus is there­fore on the music and the way it is put togeth­er. In times of often unre­lat­ed dig­i­tal music con­sump­tion, our guests delib­er­ate­ly present select­ed pieces of music from known and unknown sub­gen­res that can be appre­ci­at­ed online by music lovers and the pro­tag­o­nists’ envi­ron­ment. Far removed from par­ty cul­ture, our for­mat is intend­ed to pro­vide an inti­mate selec­tion of music with­out restric­tions. We wel­come all music lovers who would like to active­ly par­tic­i­pate in this for­mat. The sets will be curat­ed by a diverse range of local and inter­na­tion­al guests. The selec­tion of dif­fer­ent artists will result in a col­lec­tion of indi­vid­u­al­ly mixed and per­ma­nent­ly acces­si­ble playlists over the course of the pro­duc­tion series. 

The aim of the for­mat is to make the cul­ture of human­ly select­ed music acces­si­ble to a young gen­er­a­tion. With this for­mat, we appeal to DJs and music col­lec­tors to share their per­spec­tives with us. We want to appeal to peo­ple who are look­ing for per­son­al musi­cal expe­ri­ences, as well as pro­mote sub­cul­tures and for whom the dis­cov­ery and exchange of music is impor­tant.

Backyard Market

The cul­tur­al and art asso­ci­a­tions LLOS, Hiphop­zoo Basel, Elch Records and Neuf Trois are orga­niz­ing a Back­yard Mar­ket in Hor­burg­park, as part of the Hor­bair Fes­ti­val on 30 August 2025. The aim is to tem­porar­i­ly trans­form unusu­al urban loca­tions into open cul­tur­al spaces — through design, art, per­for­mance and par­tic­i­pa­tion.

We invite artists, design­ers, crafts­peo­ple, musi­cians, social projects and all cre­ative minds to become part of the Back­yard Mar­ket 3. Whether you want to exhib­it your work, sell hand­made prod­ucts, offer a work­shop or enliv­en the stage with music and per­for­mance — we’ll cre­ate the space for it!

Our aim is to bring pro­duc­tion and con­sump­tion into bal­ance by not only show­ing works and prod­ucts, but also mak­ing craft and artis­tic process­es tan­gi­ble. Here you can find more Infor­ma­tion and the Appli­ca­tion form.

Date: 30 August 2025
Loca­tion: Hor­burg­park, 4057 Basel
