Art Basel Miami Beach builds bridges between Latin America and art in Spanish
bonart basel - 10/12/23

Art Basel Miami Beach opened its 21st edition on December 6 with the return of a contagious festive spirit, the disembarkation of 277 galleries from all over the world and the consolidation of the fair as an indisputable bridge with Latin America and art in Spanish.

In a scenario of geopolitical and economic uncertainties, it seems that the most important fair in America finds a moment of respite. However, some experts have seen this year's edition of Art Basel Miami Beach somewhat slow in terms of sales, the logical continuation of a market that has been contracting for some time and in which a certain fatigue is perceived and that in addition it is affected by the geopolitical situation, which is for little joy. The CEO of Art Basel, Noah Horowitz, acknowledged this at the opening press conference, hoping that the fair will also serve as "a platform to build bridges".

Horowitz, an art historian, highlighted the drawing power of the citation, which "has established itself as the leading global platform for discovering the region's artistic styles and voices" and "an essential nexus" for creators of Europe, Asia, the Middle East and "the African diaspora in the US market".

Among the most outstanding bets is that of the South Uruguayan Gallery for great Latin American masters such as Joaquín Torres García (1874-1949), Rafael Barradas (1890-1929), Alfredo Volpi (1896-1988), Antonio Berni (1905-1981) , Maria Leontina (1917), Xul Solar (1887-1963), Ione Saldanha (1919-2001) Ignacio Iturria (1949).

For the Majoral Gallery, a space with headquarters in Barcelona and Paris that is participating for the third year in Art Basel Miami, "it is the great platform of the sector, where the great collectors, the most passionate people, the curators, the museums , the great collections. It is very difficult to create moments as relevant in the international arena as this meeting between professionals, art lovers, buyers and artists."

Art Basel Miami Beach is a mass phenomenon that has no comparison on the art map mainly because of its colorful show, festive and playful atmosphere and its commercial pull. But Art Basel stands out not only for its exhibition of art, but also for its commitment to innovative initiatives. Projects that fuse art with technology, sustainability and social awareness have featured prominently and will reflect the constant evolution of the contemporary art world.
