The Mother Position
The relationship between mother and child has traditionally been represented as a symbiotic fusion within visual art. “The Mother Position” demonstrates that our relationships to the external world are also the expression of an inner psychic life that gets projected to the outside. The exhibition thus focuses less on motherhood in the narrow sense than on a psychological position and its object relations that has its starting point in early childhood.

Founded in 1992 by Nicole Hackert and Bruno Brunnet, the gallery has its headquarters in Berlin. Its second location is at Totengässlein 5 in Basel, housed in a building dating back from 1345 and captivates with its historical contrast to the artistic focus: Contemporary Fine Arts presents contemporary painting and represents artists such as Cecily Brown, Georg Baselitz, Katja Strunz and Raymond Pettibon.
