This year, during Art Basel week, from Wednesday, June 17 to Sunday, June 21, the Laurenz Foundation, Schaulager presents the guest performance Das Weinen (Das Wähnen) at Theater Basel, Schauspielhaus, where Christoph Marthaler brings texts by the German-Swiss artist Dieter Roth (1930–1998) to life in a pharmacy setting that touches the heart, kidneys, stomach, and intestines.
