History
2013 - 2016
frontofbicycle Gallery was founded by Nicolette Youdim and was quickly joined by two like-minded artists; Gudrun Sallaberger-Plakolb and Megan Rodgers, who collectively had the vision to support and promote international artists in Basel. The original frontofbicycle team successfully organized and hosted 8 exhibitions in Basel, representing over forty international artists. During 2014, whilst hosting 3 individual group exhibitions 32 works of 122 works were sold. All profits made were re-invested into frontofbicycle Gallery to maintain the running costs to host future exhibitions.
In 2017, Bettina Egli Sennhauser joined the team, allowing Megan to devote more time for her own artwork.

What is the story about the name?
After Nicolette, the founder of frontofbicycle, moved to an idyllic village in Europe, an art friend came to visit. They talked about traveling around the countryside with their paints and brushes perfectly perched in a basket on the front of their bicycles.
Five years later, and with the support of her team members "The Artist with a basket in front of her bicycle" - frontofbicycle Gallery was launched. Today frontofbicycle is growing rapidly, supporting other artists along the way.
