Art Basel Paris 2025 announces 203 exhibitors.

Art Basel has announced the exhibitors for Art Basel Paris 2025, set to take place October 24th through 26th at the Grand Palais, with VIP preview days on October 22nd and 23rd. The fourth edition of the Parisian fair will bring together 203 galleries from 40 countries and territories, including 25 newcomers from Europe, Asia, the Americas, and beyond.

For this second edition at the Grand Palais, more than a third of exhibitors have Paris gallery locations. Paris-based galleries such as Mennour, Templon, and Semiose will be joined by international mainstays including Blum and Sprüth Magers. Artists with deep ties to the city—such as Lebanese American artist Simone Fattal and young French Israeli painter Nathanaëlle Herbelin, both of whom studied in Paris—will be prominently featured at the fair.

Clément Delépine, director of Art Basel Paris, noted that the 2025 lineup “is powerful proof of Art Basel Paris’s magnetism—and of the central role Paris and France continue to play on the global art market and the world of culture at large.”

The fair’s Galeries sector will feature solo, duo, and group presentations by leading modern and contemporary dealers. Nine galleries—including David Nolan Gallery (New York), Lodovico Corsini (Brussels), and 47 Canal (New York)—will participate in this sector for the first time. Meanwhile, the Emergence section will spotlight 16 solo presentations by emerging artists such as Mira Mann, showing with DREI, and Xiyadie, showing new erotic papercuts at Blindspot Gallery.

Additionally, the recently introduced Premise sector will return with 10 conceptually driven presentations, some featuring historical work. Among these is a solo booth of textile works by Korean artist Lee ShinJa, presented by Tina Kim Gallery.

Coinciding with the fair, major Paris institutions will stage exhibitions across the city, including shows on Georges Seurat (at the Musée d’Orsay), Philip Guston (at the Musée Picasso), and Gerhard Richter (at the Fondation Louis Vuitton).
