Galerie Monika Wertheimer

Galerie Monika Wertheimer was founded in 2001. The gallery space vastly improved since those early days, and looking back it is hard to believe that the artists accepted to exhibit in the tiny room that was the gallery space until 2005.

That year, Galerie Monika Wertheimer moved to its present day location, a light-filled space in a former brick factory in Oberwil, just outside of Basel. Surrounded by over 90 creative ateliers of all kinds, the gallery has found the ideal place to display emerging photographic art.

The aim of the gallery remains to discover and support the work of promising photographic talents, often giving them their first opportunity to exhibit their works at a professional level and to be introduced to a select audience of regional, national, and international collectors.
