Art Basel Paris is undergoing a major transformation for its third edition, officially rebranding from 'Paris+ par Art Basel' and moving into the newly renovated Grand Palais. The historic venue, fresh from a $500 million restoration, allows the fair to expand its footprint by 26 percent, hosting 194 galleries compared to last year's 154. The move includes the opening of the ornate balconies for emerging galleries and a new sector called Premise, signaling the fair's transition from a successful 'preamble' to a permanent fixture in the French capital.

air de paris gallery withdrawal art basel switzerland

Air de Paris, a leading French contemporary art gallery, has withdrawn from the 2025 edition of Art Basel in Switzerland after a dispute over booth placement. The gallery was offered a less desirable second-row spot (N3) despite its long history of prime placement (L23) on the second floor. Cofounders Florence Bonnefous and Edouard Merino described the allocation process as "brutal and unfair" in a letter to the fair, which was circulated online. Art Basel defended its decision, stating that placement is at its sole discretion and made in consideration of all 290 participating galleries.

Comment | Fine balance: fairs up the exclusivity while appealing to younger clients

Art Basel Paris in October introduced a new ultra-exclusive preview called Avant Première, catering to top-tier galleries with seven- and eight-figure works, while some emerging exhibitors felt sidelined. Meanwhile, the fair's organizers dropped the term "VIP," renaming its dedicated department to "collector and institutional relations," as CEO Noah Horowitz explained that the term could be off-putting to a new generation of buyers. Parallel events like Trauma, a curatorial platform founded by artist Adrian Ghenie, and the Basel Social Club offered more inclusive, youth-driven alternatives, though they still maintained guest lists.
