A city dialog with Basel
In the large refectory and in the monastery kitchen, the Museum Kleines Klingental is presenting an exhibition by the Royal Danish Embassy in Berlin, which was conceived together with the Danish Urban Planning Laboratory (headed by Tina Saaby, the former town planner of Copenhagen). It presents realized examples from Danish cities that show how a city can be developed in a liveable way in today's world. More greenery, biodiversity, ecological building and living, attractive design of architecture, streets and squares, life by the water, participation. In Basel, these examples meet the 'Position 2024', which was developed at the 'Dialog Days 2023' by the 'Basel 2050' urban development forum. This will enable a dialogue on further development, recognition and new impulses for the objectives for Basel's future.
Im Rahmen der Ausstellung hat das MKK gemeinsam mit Städtebau & Architektur sowie der Architektin und Kuratorin Chrissie Muhr eine attraktive Veranstaltungsreihe konzipiert: «Ein Städtedialog mit Basel» führt aktiv Expertinnen und Experten aus Dänemark und Basel in einem vielfältigen Programm aus Vorträgen, Touren oder Workshops zusammen. Die Veranstaltungsreihe wird jeweils an den Mittwochnachmittagen und -abenden Gelegenheit geben, sich mit Positionen aus Dänemark und der Schweiz, konkret in und aus Basel, zur Gestaltung und Praxis einer «lebenswerten Stadt» auszutauschen und voneinander zu lernen. Eingeladen sind u. a. Tina Saaby, Beat Aeberhard, Vittorio Magnago Lampugnani, Oliver Martin und aufstrebende Praktizierende aus Architektur, Lehre, Forschung oder Politik. Ergänzend zu diesem Programm wird im Rahmen von «Blüthner auf Reisen» am 3. September ein Konzert «Dänemark» und an einem Wochenende ein Fest mit dänischem Lebensgefühl mit «Det Danske Club Basel» stattfinden.

Detailliertes Begleitprogramm: Ab Juni auf www.mkk.ch und im separaten Veranstaltungsflyer (erhältlich im MKK).
