Intro

From caricatures to comics.

The Cartoonmuseum Basel is the only museum in Switzerland devoted exclusively to satirical art - from caricature to comics. In changing, attractively designed exhibitions on political and social topics, the entire range of humorous drawing and a great variety of artistic techniques are thematized. The Cartoon Museum documents, communicates, promotes and scrutinizes satirical drawing with public-friendly temporary exhibitions on an international level, making its collection accessible in a lively environment. Classical works, also from the museum's own collection, are given as much space as contemporary works so that interest in satirical art is awakened and promoted among a broad public. The front building of the museum is an originally late Gothic property, which was extended by a new building by Herzog & de Meuron.
