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.

A Document in Motion: ArtWorld Passports head to the Venice Biennale.

Zimbabwean artist Richard Mudariki has created 'ArtWorld Passport,' a participatory artwork debuting at the Venice Biennale 2026. The piece functions as a social sculpture and performance, where passport holders collect stamps, signatures, and drawings from artists, exhibitions, and pavilions across the Biennale, transforming the bureaucratic tool of travel into a speculative exploration of access and authorship.

Artist whose work addresses art world access is not in Basel—because his visa was denied

Zimbabwean artist Richard Mudariki, creator of the Art World Passport project, was denied a visa by the Swiss embassy in Pretoria to attend the Africa Basel art fair in Switzerland. The project, which sells physical booklets at art events for attendees to document their experiences, symbolically addresses barriers faced by artists from the global South in accessing Western institutions. Mudariki had planned to debut the project in Europe at Africa Basel but was forced to appear via video link after the visa rejection, citing unreliable documentation for his stay.
