BORDER ART: SOCIAL ART ABOUT THE NORTHERN BORDER OF MEXICO
The northern frontier of Mexico evokes the ideas of rupture and mutilation, an open wound caused by the loss of territory in the mid 19th century. The region was populated by poor migrants in search of better living conditions and determined by several North American groups in transit towards “the other side.” The intense atmosphere on the border separating Mexico from the United States…

SUBTLE LINE
When I arrived at Haydee Rovirosa Gallery in New York’s Chelsea district to interview the gallery’s curator, Haydee’ Rovirosa, and the newly arrived artist, Javier Velasco, I found neither.

STRANGE NEW WORLD IS COMING TO A FUTURE NEAR YOU
“The United States shares with Mexico a two-thousand-mile connection—the skin of two heads.

Pověsti o těžkých časech na trhu s uměním jsou opět velmi přehnané...
Letošní 50. ročník Art Basel přilákal celkem 93 000 návštěvníků a sběratelů z 80 zemí světa. 290 prémiových galerií představilo umělecká díla od počátku 20. století až po současnost. Hlavní sektor přehlídky, tradičně v prvním patře výstavního prostoru, představil 232 předních galerií z celého světa nabízející umění nejvyšší kvality. Veletrh ukázal vzestupný trend prodeje prostřednictvím galerií jak soukromým sbírkám, tak i institucím. Kromě hlavního veletrhu stály za návštěvu i ty přidružené: Volta, Liste a Photo Basel, k tomu doprovodné programy a výstavy v místních institucích, které kvalitou daleko přesahují hranice města tj. Kunsthalle Basel, Kunstmuseum, Tinguely muzeum nebo Fondation Beyeler.
