Art Basel 2023
Art Basel returns to Basel on June 15-18, 2023, and will feature over 200 leading galleries from 5 continents and works by more than 4,000 artists from the 20th and 21st centuries. First launched in the 1970s by Swiss-based gallerists, Art Basel is one of the art world's most prominent players. Every year, passionate collectors, institutional representatives, and art enthusiasts from all around make their way to Basel, in Switzerland, in anticipation of the world's most world-class galleries, master artists, and rising stars.
Art Basel consists of multiple international fairs, exhibiting annually in Basel, Miami Beach, Hong Kong, and as of 2022, Paris. In order to ensure the highest quality experience and maintain its status as a leading art fair, Art Basel has a rigorous selection process: out of the thousands of galleries that apply, less than 300 are accepted.
The fair's program consists of multiple sections, all available to the public. This includes, “Galleries," “Unlimited," “Feature," and “Statement." “Galleries" presents a majority of the fair's participating galleries. “Unlimited" presents monumental projects only, transcending the traditional booth format. “Feature" highlights exhibitions from various artists, representing a variety of artistic backgrounds and practices. Finally, “Statement" is entirely dedicated to solo shows by emerging artists, all of whom are competing for the highly coveted “Baloise Art Prize." An award that offers prestige, financial support, and enormous visibility to two winners each year.
Like the rest of their fairs, Art Basel organizes city-wide activities allowing visitors to experience the host city while enjoying exceptional art. No matter where in the world you are located, there is a chance that there is an Art Basel fair within reach. Art Basel is an avid supporter of digital platforms, providing galleries the opportunity to participate in online gallery rooms.
