Jan 29 – artgenève Guided Tour and Private Cocktail
INSEAD artgenève Second Edition on January 29, 2015
Over the past few years, artgenève has grown quickly in size and renown. The creator and Managing Director, Thomas Hug, says the aim is not to create a smaller clone of ArtBasel, but rather to have a more intimate art platform which will also remain open to smaller, less-established galleries, and not only for already famous and powerful ones. All tickets are valid from noon on when doors open. The guided tour at 18:30 (maximum 20 guests) will be followed by cocktails until about 21:00.
