The histories of shop window decoration and fine art have been closely interwoven for decades. Alongside Jean Tinguely, numerous artists have provided important impulses in the field of shop window design.

The exhibition sheds light on this changing relationship from its beginnings to the present day. It is extended into the urban space with artistic interventions in the windows of Basel stores.
