We are delighted to welcome Alexis Gautier from April to June 2019 to stay and work at basis within the framework of Air_Frankfurt and AIR Antwerpen. Alexis Gautier will open the doors of his AIR_Frankfurt guest studio on this evening and give an insight into his current projects.

Alexis Gautier focuses his research on experiments connected to process, transformation and language. His recent works are episodes of a harvest of misunderstandings where travelling, encounters and accidental discoveries becomes fields for collaborative works.
Exploring strategies of story-making, he documents his research and interventions through sculptures, textiles, videos and drawings.

He is currently a resident at AIR_Frankfurt, as well as a student at the Städelschule and a researcher in the Arts at the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp.

The AIR_Frankfurt program was founded by the city of Frankfurt’s department for culture in 1990 with the goal to foster the exchange between culturally interested and active cities.
Since 2016 Air_Frankfurt has been supervised by the production and exhibition platform basis e.V.
