Art Basel
Art Basel is pleased to unveil the 290 participating galleries – including 21 new joiners – and first highlights of its 2026 flagship show in Basel. This year’s edition welcomes new gallery representation from Ivory Coast, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey, further broadening the show’s international scope. Bringing together galleries whose programs span historical, modern, postwar, contemporary, and emerging practices, Art Basel in Basel offers a moment-in-time view of the global art world, where different generations, geographies, and artistic languages converge within a single exhibition context.
Four galleries will make their debut in Art Basel’s flagship show and enter directly into the main sector: Berry Campbell (New York) brings together 10 American postwar female artists for a group presentation, featuring Elaine de Kooning, Lynne Drexler, and Lucia Wilcox.
