Inge Schmidt at basedonart: Sculpture as quiet intensity

With Inge Schmidt: see you then, plastic pieces and drawings, basedonart in Düsseldorf presents an exhibition that sharpens the focus on material, form, and spatial presence. The presentation leads to an artistic experience in which plastic works and drawings enter into a concentrated dialogue, shaping the aesthetic experience of closeness, balance, and reduction. The exhibition runs from September 4 to October 31, 2026. ([boa-basedonart.com](https://boa-basedonart.com/))

Material, attitude, and a calm visual language

Inge Schmidt, born in 1944 in Bonn and active in Cologne for many years, studied sculpture at the Städel in Frankfurt under Michael Croissant and received a guest scholarship at the Villa Romana in Florence in 1987. Her works revolve around the tension of volume, surface, and drawing; they appear collected, precise, and at the same time open to associations. In art historical perception, such positions represent a sculpture that relies not on effect but on concentration. ([inge-schmidt.de](https://www.inge-schmidt.de/bio.htm))

Space emerges between sculpture and drawing

The exhibition makes it tangible how plastic pieces and drawings do not explain each other but deepen one another. In this tension field, quiet shifts occur: contours become movements, materials become carriers of memory, and space becomes a sensitive resonance body. For visitors who seek contemporary art beyond the loud, a particularly dense access to the examination of the works unfolds here. The material is not illustrated, but becomes the actual subject.

An exhibition for attentive contemplation

basedonart is known as an artist-run gallery in Flingern and sees itself as a place for curated positions with an international perspective. The gallery exhibits art in the tension between present and cultural connection, thus providing a fitting framework for Inge Schmidt's works. Those who visit the exhibition experience a calm, focused exhibition atmosphere, in which sculpture and drawing unfold as two forms of the same artistic attitude.

This is an exhibition for all who appreciate precise form, quiet material awareness, and a clear art historical language. A visit is worthwhile, as it not only showcases works but also an attitude towards art: attentive, reduced, and of great dignity.
