Art Basel 2025

Art Basel 2025 opened with strong preview-day sales, surprising many galleries after a tough year in the art market. Dealers reported a 'buyer's market' with price reductions and flexibility, while high-priced works by Jeff Koons, Michael Armitage, Adrian Ghenie, and Frank Bowling sold. The fair introduced a new section called Premiere for works made in the past five years, aimed at easing participation for small to mid-sized galleries. Satellite fairs including Africa Basel, Liste, Volta, and Maze Design Basel also launched or celebrated anniversaries. Other highlights include the Baloise Art Prize awarded to Rhea Dillon and Joyce Joumaa, a Holbein drawings rehang at Kunstmuseum Basel, and a visa denial for artist Richard Mudariki. Qatar took center stage ahead of a new fair in 2026, and limited-edition Labubu figurines caused a frenzy at the Art Basel Shop.

Chinese Dissident Artist Badiucao on His First Solo Gallery Show

Chinese dissident artist Badiucao has opened his first solo gallery show, titled “Disagree Where We Must,” at Goldstone Gallery in Melbourne, Australia, his adopted hometown. The exhibition features nearly three dozen works, including canvases and conceptual pieces that critique developments in mainland China and Hong Kong, as well as geopolitical tensions involving Russia and the Middle East. Badiucao, who has faced threats and censorship for his criticism of the Chinese Communist Party, previously held institutional exhibitions in Europe but had never before had a solo show at a commercial venue.
