novum

In the newly created «novum» sector, photo basel is specifically showing works that have never been shown before. The «novum» positions can either be completely new works - created especially for photo basel - or bodies of works that have not yet made it into the light of day because they have only now been properly discovered or rediscovered. These works have one thing in common, namely that they have never been exhibited or shown before and are therefore being presented to the photo basel public for the very first time, as a premiere. Furthermore, photo basel deliberately refrains from presenting these works in advance (not on our social media platforms, not in the press). We are excited to show our audience these very special works exclusively at the fair only. We apologize in advance for this appropriate secrecy – trust us, it is worth it.
