👍👍 We organized our staff party at Brasilea location in Basel. With its superb view from the roof top terrace just next to the river Rhine and plenty of space and facilities, it was the perfect spot for our event. Besides it is easy to reach via tram 8. The Brasilea team was very approachable, helpful... People often mention Brasilea,

    “The corner of Brazilian art in Basel” If you are looking for Brazilian contemporary art, then Stiftung Brasilea is definitively your destination in Basel. Apart from a fine permanent collection that showcases the genius of Franz Josef Widmar – an Austrian painter who spent most of his life in Rio de Janeiro and drew inspiration from the milieu where he lived and worked –, the gallery-cum-cultural centre houses high quality temporary exhibitions. All of this with awesome views of the Rhine! In a city known for its close links to contemporary art, Brasilea is a great place to put the Brazilian production in perspective.

With its superb view from the roof top terrace just next to the river Rhine and plenty of space and facilities, it was the perfect spot for our event. Besides it is easy to reach via tram 8. The Brasilea team was very approachable, helpful and friendly before, during and after our event. Therefore, thank you Brasilea! We had all a really great time!

    A very interesting discovery - conceptually and architecturally! Highly recommended not only for those interested in Brazilian art.

    I visited the Brasilea about 10 years ago and that place will be forever etched on my memory. I remember being very impressed with the Foundation while experiencing it then. I find the program of Brasilea very empowering and I’ve been following their activities from close since that time. Great Art exhibitions! The space is also amazing and the view on the rooftop is simply spectacular. Brasilea is probably the symbol of the most representative cultural exchange between Brazil and Switzerland. If you are an art lover, Brasilea is definitely a place not to miss!
