The Kunstmuseum Basel Neubau is the new building of the Kunstmuseum Basel, designed by Christ & Gantenbein and completed in 2016. The client was the Construction and Transport Department of the Canton of Basel-Stadt. The City of Basel owns it.
ArchDaily gives its floor area as 8,079 square meters (about 87,000 square feet). The page lists concrete as the material. Its structural engineer was ZPF Ingenieure, its building services engineer was Stokar + Partner, and FS Architekten was construction manager.
The building serves for the exhibition and preservation of art and for events. The architects say it embodies both a new departure and continuity. It stands in a prominent location in the heart of Basel, as one of the museum's venues.
