Unknown – Photos and Prints
Armenian photographer and printmaker Tiruhi (Tina) Gevorgyan studied piano in Yerevan and photography online in Saint Petersburg. Following various residencies and exhibitions in Armenia, Germany, Russia, Switzerland, and France, she is currently a resident artist at Atelier Mondial in Freiburg.
The artist works with both photography and printmaking. At times, she finds a digital photograph insufficient on its own; she prints it on paper and develops it further into a photozine or photobook—a second phase in her creative process that lends the photographs a more tactile quality.
In her residency project, the artist explores a new environment, observing how an individual reacts to being alone in a completely unfamiliar space. The project centers on experiencing Freiburg and its surroundings—and on how staying in a different place shapes her perception of that environment. Her work will be presented in an exhibition from November 5 to 8 at T66 Kulturwerk.

40 Years of Atelier Mondial
This year, Atelier Mondial is celebrating a milestone birthday! Switzerland’s oldest multidisciplinary exchange programme was launched in 1986 by the Christoph Merian Foundation (CMS) – and operated at that time under the name iaab: Internationales Atelier- und Austauschprogramm der Region Basel. The idea behind this initiative was to support artists from the Basel region by enabling them to spend time abroad, thereby providing fresh inspiration for their work. At the same time, artists from abroad, who spent several months in the artist-residency studios at St. Alban-Tal, were also intended to breathe new life into the local art scene.
Much has changed over the years: iaab has evolved into the multidisciplinary and trinational Atelier Mondial, with its headquarters and its own artist-residency studios at the Dreispitz. It is supported by the CMS, the cantons of Basel-Stadt, Basel-Landschaft and Solothurn, as well as the regions of South Baden and Alsace. The original idea behind the exchange has been preserved to this day, even though the focus is now more strongly on networking between the artist communities in the Tri-Regio and with the many partner organisations worldwide.
Atelier Mondial would like to express its heartfelt thanks to its funding bodies for their loyal commitment, which makes so much possible every year!
