‘Art Basel continues to be the very best fair for us, and this year we met new collectors from Europe, including France, and also from Taipei. We found new collectors for our younger generation of artists, including Navid Nuur and Ida Ekblad, as well as artists who we have worked with for many years – our highlight being the sale of six works by Albert Oehlen on the first day of the fair.’ Samia Saouma, Director, Galerie Max Hetzler, Berlin, Paris
'It's always a pleasure to be in Basel, as it continually offers a wonderful opportunity to connect with our international collectors, including those from the United States and Asia. We have had good sales on the preview days and strong engagement continued in the days following. We appreciate Basel's dedicated attention to art from across Africa this year.’ Kirsty Wesson, Senior Curator, Goodman Gallery, Johannesburg, Cape Town
‘Our first year exhibiting at Art Basel has been both a rewarding and inspiring experience. We have had an incredible opportunity to share our artists work with curators and we are very much looking forward to the institutional follow up from the fair.’ Jasmin T. Tsou, Owner and Director, JTT, New York
‘Art Basel consistently draws the highest quality works on the market. This year's floorplan revisions, in order to highlight the show’s historical focus, seems to have had a motivating impact on exhibitors and created new energy.’ Paul L. Gray, Partner, Richard Gray Gallery, Chicago, New York
‘The fair was a great success. We were impressed by the quality of institutions present at the show and also the positive feedback we received about our presentation of Paolo Scheggi in Feature.’ Michele Casamonti, Founder, Tornabuoni Art, Paris, Florence, Milan, Forte dei Marmi, Portofino
‘It has been a wonderful week in Basel. We were particularly touched by the outpouring of love for Marcia Hafif and her presentation in Unlimited, and are working with a group of institutions to find a permanent home for this masterwork.’ Fergus McCaffrey, Founder and Owner, Fergus McCaffrey, New York, Saint Barthelemy
‘Art Basel is the gold-standard fair. It has been our best to date with everything spoken for in the first hour of opening.’ Glenn Scott Wright, Director, Victoria Miro, London
'Art Basel sets itself apart with its unparalleled visitors – both in terms of critical quality and quantity – and the Edition sector continually attracts strong and informed collectors. We have been exhibiting in Basel for the past 42 years and this is one of the best ever.' Sidney Felsen, Founder, Gemini G.E.L. LLC, Los Angeles
‘Art Basel always makes us re-realize the limitlessness of art through the huge scope of works that are presented. Visitors have a serious passion and are interested to learn about the works in-depth. We have been very happy to see many collectors appreciating art that stretches beyond their own borders.’ Chiara Hsinke Lee, Director, Long March Space, Beijing
‘Art Basel is one of the few places where we can place works with major American institutions while also broadening an artist's audience among intelligent, informed European collectors. This underscores why Art Basel remains the most important and influential art fair.’ Jack Shainman, Jack Shainman Gallery, New York, Kinderhook
'This year's show had more new collectors than ever, right from the start. And this flow of traffic continued through the subsequent days, with interest across the range of works on our booth. The audience here is not afraid of challenges.' Frish Brandt, President, Fraenkel Gallery, San Francisco
‘We were really happy to be at the fair again this year. This year's booth dedicated to Italian art from the 50s to the 70s attracted collectors from all over the world, creating interesting new relationships for us.’ Eleonora Tega, Director, Galleria Tega, Milan
‘Our Feature booth dedicated to Mono-ha was extremely well received and we have made very strong sales. This is our first time showing in Art Basel in Switzerland and we would love to come back next year.’ Hozu Yamamoto, Gallery Owner, Tokyo Gallery + BTAP, Tokyo, Beijing
‘This year for Art Basel, we took a new approach by focusing on four of our artists and rotating works throughout the fair. Our two solo presentations inside the booth with Jose Davila and Jorge Mendez Blake were extremely well received, and we sold almost all of the sculptures by Davila. Over 80 percent of our placements were with museums or very significant private collections.’ Kerstin Erdmann, Director, OMR, Mexico City
‘Given the great success of previous editions of the fair, we were delighted that sales continued to be extremely strong at Art Basel this year. We bring our best to Basel. Showing important works by Keith Haring, Thomas Schütte, George Condo, Albert Oehlen, Martin Kippenberger, Cindy Sherman, Rosemarie Trockel and Andy Warhol, among others, and we were very pleased to be met with enthusiastic and knowledgeable collectors at the highest level. This year there was unparalleled energy on the floors during the first few days, once again confirming the dominance of the Art Basel fair.’ Per Skarstedt, Owner, Skarstedt, New York, London
‘We were delighted to participate in Feature this year at Art Basel, especially as the sector gave us the freedom to show Andrea Bowers’ powerful installation. Visitors have had quite an emotional response to the piece, and we’ve received incredible support from several curators and institutions.’ Kevin Scholl, Director, Susanne Vielmetter Los Angeles Projects, Culver City
