Art Basel Paris Names Exhibitors for 2025 Edition
Art Basel Paris has revealed the 203 galleries set to participate in its 2025 iteration, slated to take place at the Grand Palais October 24–26, with preview days occurring October 22–23. The event promises a mix of international and local talent: The exhibitors represent forty different countries and territories, with roughly one third operating Paris galleries. The fair will be divided into three sections: the main Galleries section; Emergence, which features solo presentations of emerging artists; and Premise, which reexamines art history and may feature works created before 1900. Returning this year are the fair’s Oh La La! initiative, which sees participants rehang their booths over a two-day span in response to a thematic prompt, and the free public art exhibition in the Jardin des Tuileries, which did not take place last year, as the garden was closed following the city’s hosting of the 2024 Summer Olympics. The fair’s Conversations program, also free to the public, will take place at the Petit Palais.
The Galeries section will welcome 177 participants, ranging from such blue-chip megagalleries as Gagosian, Hauser & Wirth, Pace Gallery, and David Zwirner to smaller operations like Montreal’s Landau Fine Art and Shanghai’s Antenna Space. Nine galleries are debuting in this section, including New York’s 47 Canal and Lisbon’s Madragoa. The Emergence section, which will occupy the Grand Palais’s interior balconies, will host sixteen exhibitors, half of whom are new to the fair. These include London’s Ginny on Frederick, presenting a sculpture by French Iranian artist Arash Nassiri, and Berlin’s Galerie Molitor, which will show work by Croatian artist Dora Budor. The Premise section, which debuted last year, will feature ten exhibitors, among them New York’s Gordon Robichaux and LA’s Stars, who are collaborating on a presentation of work by Janet Olivia Henry; and the Los Angeles–based Château Shatto, which will show works by Australian Aboriginal painter Emily Kame Kngwarreye and American painter Alan Lynch.
“The exceptional quality of this year’s projects is powerful proof of Art Basel Paris’ magnetism—and of the central role Paris and France continue to play on the global art market and the world of culture at large,” said Art Basel Paris director Clément Delépine in a statement. “We owe it to our galleries, visitors, and partners to deliver a stellar show, cementing its place as the cultural calendar’s unmissable fall event, and we look forward to working towards this goal.”
