The Paintboxed exhibition, part of the Paintboxed – Tezos World Tour, comes to Basel during Art Basel 2025, following stops in Miami, Paris, and New York, presented by ArtMeta, Objkt, the Tezos Foundation, and the Adrian Wilson Archive. Presented at Basel’s Digital Art Mile, it celebrates the Quantel Paintbox, a pioneering 1980s digital painting device that shaped film, television, and pop culture, influencing iconic visuals like the MTV logo, Dire Straits’ “Money for Nothing” music video, and album covers like Nirvana’s “Nevermind” and movie posters for “Silence of the Lambs”, “Pulp Fiction”, and “JFK”. This video offers a tour of the Paintboxed exhibition and features an insightful interview with artists Adrian Wilson and Matthias Paeper, who discuss the artistic innovation and technical intricacies of the Quantel Paintbox.
