Gili Tal's Fridge Fascination at Kunsthalle Basel

London-based artist Gili Tal's new exhibition at Kunsthalle Basel centers on a fascination with commercial fridges. In a conversation with Lydia Eliza Trail, Tal discusses the source of this obsession, as well as her love of Impressionism, new-build developments, and the writings of Michel Houellebecq. The show, which is currently on view, explores the aesthetic and cultural significance of these everyday objects, drawing connections between consumer culture, architecture, and art history. Tal's work often examines the intersection of the mundane and the artistic, and this exhibition continues that exploration by elevating the commercial fridge to a subject of artistic inquiry. The conversation provides insight into Tal's creative process and the influences that shape her practice, offering viewers a deeper understanding of the themes present in the exhibition.
