les formes du visible

Le Regard Libre N° 79 - Aude Robert-Tissot

From September 20 to 26, the world's largest and most prestigious contemporary art fair, Art Basel, was held, the international meeting place for the art world and collectors. Millions were made, as usual, but with little artistic renewal. The major galleries wisely sat on their leading artists, taking no risks for this edition. So what's the point of spending just under a hundred francs if you're just an art lover? To be surprised. Because yes, even if Art Basel didn't transcend the art world this year, we did see an interesting trend towards... figuration.
