photo basel 2016 will combine young galleries as well as renowned international ones whose artists consist not only of emerging artists and talents but also of those with a bold historic background. The fair provides its visitors the ultimate chance to connect and discover galleries whose photographic positions demonstrate a strong predilection to translate the DNA of contemporary creation and a gift for revealing talents, be it old and new.
