Liste Art Fair Basel returns for its 30th anniversary edition in 2025 at Messe Basel, featuring 99 galleries from 31 countries, nearly half of which are first-time exhibitors. The fair emphasizes solo presentations and experimental projects, with 11 galleries receiving production support from Liste Foundation Basel and Friends of Liste. A daily program includes performances curated by Jacob Fabricius, workshops by Tina Braegger, and panel discussions. Nikola Dietrich helms the fair for the first time as director.
Liste has long served as a complementary platform to Art Basel, championing emerging artists and galleries on an international stage. Its 30-year milestone underscores its enduring role in fostering cross-cultural dialogue and critical engagement amid rising nationalism and restricted exchanges. By providing visibility and network access to young galleries, Liste remains a vital launchpad for the next generation of artistic talent.
