Regine Basha is a curator who, for the past 15 years has worked in Montreal, New York and Austin. Her undergraduate work at NYU was in Studio Art and Art History and her graduate work was at the Center for Curatorial Studies, Bard College (class of 96). As an independent curator she has been mostly involved in realizing context-specific situations for the production of new work in both public and private space, as well as considering alternative curatorial practice.

Basha's recent and upcoming exhibitions include an exhibition about listening with Steve Roden and Stephen Vitiello (Lora Reynolds Gallery), an exhibition with Berlin-based Setareh Shahbazi (Contemporary Arts Forum, Santa Barbara), and a town-wide sound sculpture project in Marfa, Texas called The Marfa Sessions (Ballroom Marfa). Basha's essays have appeared in Art Lies, Art Papers, Bidoun, Cabinet, Modern Painters and Performing Arts Journal. She is currently installed at unitednationsplaza, Berlin as curatorial participant.
