VOLTA7 2011
13 Jun, 2011 - 18 Jun, 2011
Encouraged by the response of collectors and curators during the last editions' solo presentations and carefully considered booths, the Curatorial Committee has proposed for VOLTA7 that a much stronger emphasis will be placed on single artist presentations or on booth concepts that bring the work of two artists into dialogue with one another, thus giving emphasis to artists by allowing for a greater understanding of different individual practices.
VOLTA is a platform for presenting the vision of contemporary art galleries of global repute whose artists represent new and relevant positions for curators and collectors alike. Conceived to bridge a gap between Basel's pre-existing fairs, VOLTA showcases galleries 鈥� whether young or mature 鈥� that choose as their mandate to work with the most exciting emerging artists. The galleries are selected by an annually changing group of Curators to give each edition its own clear identity and to redirect focus back on the art producers as well as their representing galleries.
