Once your week starts at Art Basel, it\u2019s unlikely to stop. A portable phone charger was recommended among the must-pack items from most people Artsy spoke to. \u201cOnce you leave your hotel, you can really be out and about all day and all night,\u201d said Patricia Amberg, head of the UBS Art Competence Center and a longtime Art Basel attendee.<\/p>\n

Sign up for the local magazine Bebbi Zine\u2019s daily digest, a recommendation from Basel locals Hester and Stefan von Bartha: \u201cA newsletter each morning during Art Basel with all the best events, openings, and parties.\u201d…<\/p>\n
(…)<\/p>\n
\u201cI do not follow a specific strategy when navigating the booths. I always make a point to systematically explore every booth at the fair, aisle by aisle, keeping my mind open for discovery,\u201d said Patrizia Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, an esteemed art collector and president of Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
