7x was a one-day E19 special event on Saturday 15 July 2023, from 3.00 pm to 10.00 pm: seven drawings by Edi at Sabin & Reto, announced in two languages as ‘Entracte / juste pour voir’. The format does not fit into the traditional four-day group exhibition schedule, but is imported as an E19 special event to ensure the chronology remains complete. Following research, Edi is highly likely to be identified as the Biel-based artist Edi Aschwanden; Sabin & Reto are treated as the hosting venue and are not imported as artist entries.
Programme
Artists
Edi Aschwanden, born in Lucerne in 1957, has lived in the Bernese Jura since 1984 and is a member of Visarte Bern. From 1982 to 2020, he was an artist and art educator at the School of Design in Biel; his practice encompasses drawing, objects, paintings and site-specific works that straddle the boundaries between functionality, imagination and aesthetic disruption.
Seven drawings by Edi were exhibited at Sabin & Reto as part of the E19 special event 7x. The exact group of works is not specified on the map; the identification as Edi Aschwanden is derived from research carried out by Bieler Kunstkontext.
