OTS - Art Basel Cities: Buenos Aires will be the first partner city for new Art Basel initiative
2016. September 09. 09:10
Buenos Aires, 9 September, 2016 (APA/OTS) - Art Basel will partner
with the city of Buenos Aires for its Art Basel Cities initiative.
Together with the city, Art Basel will develop and host a vibrant
and content-driven program of events. Carefully curated with Art
Basel, these events will celebrate the local art scene and build
lasting relationships between Buenos Aires and the international
art world. The program, which commences in late 2017, will be
mutually enriching in the sense that it will bring world-class
programming to Buenos Aires and will spotlight the city's rich
cultural scene for the international art world. Buenos Aires is
committed to further establishing itself internationally as a
leading arts destination, and the partnership will enable the city
to draw upon Art Basel's knowledge and network.
Buenos Aires' avant-garde tradition has been the basis of its
cultural wealth - from fashion and literature to design,
architecture and art. Today, it boasts a lively and vibrant art
scene with more than 80 art galleries, and an array of
world-renowned art museums and public collections as well as a new
art and design district in La Boca and Barracas.
Launched in March 2016, Art Basel Cities is a new initiative
that expands Art Basel's engagement in the art world. Going beyond
the staging of art fairs and into working directly with cities and
government bodies, Art Basel Cities will develop high-profile
cultural event programs with international resonance. In addition
to hosting art programs in the partner cities, this initiative will
bring projects from the city to the Art Basel shows, providing
Buenos Aires with additional opportunities to engage with Art
Basel's international audience.
