A final flight over #ArtBaselParis at the Grand Palais. From above, the fair’s many conversations, encounters, and carefully considered presentations come into view. With the unexpected early closure, fewer people than hoped were able to experience them in person – making these moments feel all the more worth revisiting. Thank you again to every gallery, artist, and visitor who shaped this edition.
