VOLTA4 - Basel
After the brilliant U.S. debut of the Basel show with
VOLTA NY, the engines barely have time to cool as VOLTA gets
revved up for its traditional stop in Switzerland in June. VOLTA4,
the fourth edition of Basel’s cutting edge art fair, brings
several positions in new and emerging art from 63 galleries
around the world. The ULTRA BRAG facility at the Basel harbour
is the place to be this June during the Basel Art Week.
VOLTA4, the 2008 edition, will take place once
again at the ULTRA BRAG premises in the Basel
Harbour. VOLTA4 is proud to continue its partnership
with Sallfort AG, one of Basel’s most reputable asset
management firms, and Helvetia Versicherungen,
insurance leader in the European market, who will return to
sponsor the VIP Lounge. This year the Sallfort/Helvetia VIP
will further be furnished by London-based design studio Rabih
Hage, who will equip the Lounge with furniture pieces
by some of today’s most cutting-edge designers. Further
adding the the atmosphere will be the large-scale installation
by German artists Wolfgang Winter + Berthold Hoerbelt
who will design a waterside pavilion for visitors to eat and
relax whose central focus will be the artwork Mensa,
a die-cut steel table, long enough to accommodate 120 guests.
As instituted in 2006, the VOLTA4 selection
was made with the input of the Curatorial Board to guarantee
an independence of choices. The members of the VOLTA4
Curatorial Board are Christoph Doswald, Art
Critic; James Elaine, Curator, Hammer Projects;
Francesco Manacorda, Curator, Barbican Gallery;
Chus Martinez, Director, Frankfurter Kunstverein;
and Jasper Sharp, Curator and Writer. The Curatorial
Board – together with founding gallerists Kavi
Gupta, Friedrich Loock and Uli Voges
and VOLTA’s Executive Director Amanda Coulson—have
invited following galleries to Basel for 2008:
