Staged in correspondence with Art Basel week, photo basel is an opportunity for visitors to the city to explore the dynamic scenes that are being captured by an array of leading photographers. As Switzerland’s first and only international art fair dedicated to the photographic medium, the fair provides an in-depth survey of imagery being produced in the field, from classic to contemporary.
