The Gallery of
Everything presents a solo display of original coins, currencies and pages by
Emile Josome Hodinos (1853 - 1905).
Born Joseph Ernest Ménétrier in Paris in 1853,
Hodinos trained as an engraver under the acclaimed French medallist Paulin Tasset. Yet it was his internment in the Ville-Évrard Hospital at the age of 23 which enabled him to fulfil his substantial creative vision.
Hodinos was first presented to the world in
Fantastic Art, Dada, Surrealism at the Museum of Modern Art, curated by Alfred Barr in 1936. He was then incorporated into
La Collection de l’Art Brut by artist Jean Dubuffet and subsequently profiled in a publication.
The installation at Basel Social Club 2025 is a curated assembly of medals, coins and currencies, featuring over 100 extracted works, alongside rare figurative pieces and blue book pages.
