Some tourists go on trips for beautiful landscapes, others dream of seeing the sights<\/a> and iconic places of a new country. Why not book tickets<\/a> to one of the largest art fairs that brings together talented authors of our time? Art Basel opens its doors to visitors every year in Basel, Hong Kong<\/a> and Miami. Today we will prove that the state of Florida is ideal not only for beach lovers, but also for fans of beauty.<\/p>\n

History<\/a> of the exhibition<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Art Basel emerged in the 1970s thanks to the initiative of three Swiss cultural figures :<\/a> Balz Hutl, Trudel Br\u00fcckner and Ernst Beyeler. At the same time, the event did not need much time to gain popularity. From the first years of operation, it became one of the most significant events in the art world, because the opening ceremony alone brought together 16,000 people. In addition, guests had the chance to get acquainted with the works of authors from ten countries in almost 90 galleries.<\/p>\n

The passage of time has not spared the world of art. Over the years, Art Basel became more and more famous, and in the 1980s it decided to look in the direction of a new direction. When the art community celebrated the 150th anniversary of the advent of photography, several exhibitions dedicated to this type of creativity were held under the auspices<\/a> of the International Association of Art Dealers in Photography.<\/p>\n

In turn, the organizers of the Swiss fair held five thematic photo<\/a> events. It was thanks to this decision that Art Basel thundered throughout the world and took its well-deserved place in the art niche.<\/p>\n

These days, the exhibition is one of the top main events of the art community. Moreover, today Art Basel takes place on several continents and opens its doors to guests not only in Basel, but also in Hong Kong and Miami.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Art Basel Miami 2023 program<\/strong><\/h2>\n

This year, the American part of the event took place from December 7 to 10. But the Asian opening day died down at the end of March, the European one in mid-June. At the same time, the state of Florida received the honor of closing the three main exhibitions and crowning the end of the entire season.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Art Basel Miami has made significant progress compared to previous years. Organizers worked on the layout of the galleries to improve the orientation process in each of the 277 participating spaces. Everyone got a chance to see the incredible sculptures of Hugh Locke, which were intended to decorate<\/a> the Metropolitan Museum of Art. In addition, the famous artist from the North American Cherokee tribe Kay Walkingstick and the representative of the surrealist school Leonor Fini pleased with new works. For the first time in history, exhibits from Egypt, Poland, Iceland and even the Philippines were exhibited at the fair.<\/p>\n

Exhibition sectors\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The organizers divided the entire event space into several segments, each of which was dedicated to a specific topic. The Galleries sector presents works by emerging authors and recognized masters. Meridians is responsible for the monumental direction. Positions and Nova are a chance for young creators to present their vision of art to the world. Surveys highlights galleries of individual practices that are historically significant. Kabinett brings together curated collections, including thematic, historical and personal selections.

Discussions\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In addition to the main exhibitions and art objects, each visitor has access to a discussion on one of the topics specified in the Art Basel Miami program.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Modern creators skillfully weave words and meanings from one context into another and sometimes find inspiration even in modern pop culture.<\/p>\n

Some discussions are first-hand accounts. For example ,<\/a> several leaders of major American museums share how they are going through renovation and expansion. It is no secret that today such institutions are forced to keep up with the times, actively use new technologies and attract audiences of different ages.<\/p>\n
