This June, we celebrate 30 years as Lead Partner of Art Basel and welcome you to the art fair which brings the international art world together. Art Basel in Basel 2024 (10 – 16 June) will feature 200 leading international galleries and more than 4,000 artists under one roof.

A series of installations and events will spotlight the diverse mediums and techniques used by artists to create their work. In the UBS Lounge, located in Hall 2 within the Art Basel Collectors Lounge, the UBS Art Collection will present a group show of textile-based works from the Collection including a new site-specific commission by Maja Bajević; and the UBS Art Studio, presented in Hall 1, will be transformed into a working studio with the art foundry Kunstbetrieb AG Münchenstein.

To celebrate our landmark anniversary, UBS and Art Basel will co-present a special public commission by Petrit Halijaj, whose work is represented in the UBS Art Collection, installed on the façade of Hotel Merian, former Café Spitz. Both visible during the day and illuminated at night, the installation When the sun goes away, we paint the sky, represents hope for a better future. Opening to coincide with Art Basel, the installation will be on view beyond the dates of the fair for the people of Basel to enjoy.

Creativity is a powerful tool in bringing people together. At the show, we will offer artist-designed creative workshops and two public panels featuring inspiring artists. Stay tuned here for more to follow about our series of activations for the fair.
