Irène Zurkinden (1909–1987), rebel artist and friend of Meret Oppenheim, finally has her day in the Swiss spotlight at Basel's H. Geiger Kulturstiftung till 7 September (LINK, long article)

— The ambitious show, years in the making, attempts to reclaim Zurdinken's legacy from the margins of art history and position her as an artistic rebel, a daring woman who remained untethered to conventions, and whose outlook on the world around her was honest, unflinching, and dazzlingly inclusive. Last year, at Art Basel, New York's Meredith Rosen Gallery devoted its booth to Zurkinden, with Rosen calling her "truly… one of the greatest artists". That presentation followed the gallery's exhibition of her work in "The Paris Years" in the summer and fall of 2023, back in New York.
