For the VIP arts set, the return of both Art Basel Paris and Design Miami.Paris might already ring as old news, as exclusive peeks at their booths were allowed from as early as this Tuesday. Still, as the former and biggest of the two events officially opens its doors to the public today, continuing at Paris's Grand Palais until Sunday, October 26, with the latter on view inside Hôtel de Maisons through the same date, we thought it was the right time to bring you a design-driven edit of the projects and names you'll hear more and more about in the coming days.
Gathering 206 galleries from 41 different countries and territories, including 65 platforms hailing from its base of France and 29 newcomers, Art Basel Paris is sure to reunite some of the world's most forward-thinking talents across its four sectors (Galerie, Emergence, Premise, and Magazines) and ever-exciting public program of cross-city activations and conversations. With 40 additional design exhibitions to check out at the third iteration of Design Miami.Paris — which focuses on collectible works between the modernist and contemporary period, and even makes room for colossal installations in its Design at Large section — there are no limits to creation.
