Do the Right Thing is a three-part event with artists KimBo (Kim Bollag), Sarina Scheidegger and Kathrin Siegrist. Every first Wednesday of the month, feminism meets pop culture. The programme loosely refers to the socio-political commitment of the artist Camille Pissarro (1830-1903), whom the Kunstmuseum is currently showing, and transports it into the present. There will also be a bar and DJ sets by Avem.

In German: Zum Abschluss ihrer 38-jährigen Tätigkeit in der Kunstkommission würdigen wir das beispiellose Engagement von Dr. h.c. Maja Oeri, deren Wirken die Museumsstadt Basel nachhaltig prägt. Mit grosser Hingabe fördert sie Kunst, Künstlerinnen und Künstler und ermöglichte den Neubau des Kunstmuseums Basel sowie den Laurenz-Bau. Ebenso sind ihr bedeutende Schenkungen von Kunstwerken an die Öffentliche Kunstsammlung Basel zu verdanken. In seinem Festvortrag Eine Gärtnerin der Kunst: Maja Oeri und die Museumsstadt Basel beleuchtet Dr. Noam M. Elcott, Professor für Kunstgeschichte an der Columbia University in New York, die vielfältigen Wechselbeziehungen, durch die die Kunst von der Vergangenheit bis in die Gegenwart getragen und ermöglicht wird.
