Visiting Art Basel VIP Preview
Art Basel offers
plenty of opportunities to enjoy and acquire some of the world’s most exclusive
works of art, true masterpieces that can easily adorn any museum collection. It
is no wonder that this prestigious art fair attracts so many seasoned
collectors, dedicated art dealers, and celebrities. I was lucky to attend Art
Basel VIP preview with my dear friend Armin Pornbacher, a passionate art collector
and professional racing driver from Italy. We also had a very interesting
conversation with Marianna Minsker who is a TV-presenter on RTVI. I even had a
chance to take part in the TV program about Art Basel and share some thoughts on
the contemporary art market and art logistics.
David Nahmad is another great person I was lucky to
personally meet at Art Basel. David Nahmad is a billionaire retired
art dealer who is, however, a super humble and down to earth individual
ready to discuss art and art business. He is also the father of Helly Nahmad, an
American art dealer and owner of the well-known Helly Nahmad Gallery in New
York. Overall, my Art Basel experience was absolutely amazing, and I’m happy to
have met so many interesting and famous people from around the world.
