Founded in 1970 in Basel, Art Basel is the global leader in art fairs. With events in Basel, Hong Kong, Miami Beach, and Paris, the fair showcases coveted works by the most influential names in modern and contemporary art, as well as rising stars of the industry.

Global powerhouses like Hauser & Wirth and Gagosian frequent the fair’s many editions annually, exhibiting alongside promising smaller and mid-level galleries. While the high cost of exhibiting at Art Basel and the prospect of reaching wealthy clients means dealers typically bring high-value, blue-chip works, it’s not uncommon to find gems under $10,000.

The fair atmosphere varies between each location. The Basel edition, for example, draws seasoned collectors, curators, and academics. Its tone is more serious compared to the Miami Beach event, which attracts a range of collectors, celebrities, and art enthusiasts equally excited for the parties as they are for the art.
