In Basel, alternative art fairs spring up in new places

In Basel, alternative art fairs are proliferating as dealers seek new ways to engage collectors outside the main Art Basel fair. Maison Clearing, a pop-up group exhibition by the New York and Los Angeles-based Clearing gallery, occupies a four-story villa in central Basel, featuring works by 46 artists including Kayode Ojo, Jasmine Gregory, and Jean-Marie Appriou. The rental cost of $2,000 per day is roughly one-third the price of a medium-sized stand at Art Basel. Meanwhile, the Basel Social Club (BSC) returns for its fourth edition in a former bank building near the Kunstmuseum, hosting over 100 spaces filled with art, performances, and hospitality offerings, including artist-led services like a hairdresser and a blood bank.

London show of Lee Miller photographs is fundraising to save thousands of her negatives

The Lee Miller Archives, established after the American photographer's vast collection was discovered in the attic of her Sussex home following her death in 1977, is raising funds through an exhibition at Lyndsey Ingram gallery in London to conserve up to 60,000 negatives and prints, some nearly 100 years old and in perilous condition. The show, titled "Lee Miller: Performance of a Lifetime" (23 January-25 February), explores the role of theatre and performance in Miller's work from her 1929 arrival in Paris through her WWII photojournalism, with prices starting at £3,800. Proceeds will enable freezing and preservation of the archive stored at Farleys House, where Miller lived with her husband Roland Penrose.

In tough times for dealers, Art Basel debuts a section for new works

Art Basel is introducing a new section called Premiere at its upcoming fair, designed for galleries to present works created within the last five years by up to three artists, organized around a loose curatorial concept. The inaugural section features ten exhibitors, mostly smaller to mid-sized galleries showing mid-career artists, with prices ranging from €5,000 to $85,000. The section is priced at SFr22,000 for a 32 sq. m stand, cheaper than the main section but more expensive than the emerging-artist-focused Statements section, which can be financially risky for dealers.
