Wolf & Nomad Gallery was delighted to return to Volta Basel for its third consecutive year, marking another successful presentation during Europe’s most important week in the international art calendar. Set against the energy of Art Basel, this year’s showcase brought together an exceptional group of Latin American artists whose diverse practices reflect the richness, innovation, and evolving perspectives of contemporary art from the region.
Our carefully curated presentation highlighted five distinctive artistic voices: new works by Pajarito, the vibrant textile compositions of Carla Freschi, the material explorations of Alejandra Aristizabal, the sculptural language of Christian Abusaid, and a special Basel debut by Vanessa Valero, whose dynamic practice expands the possibilities of textile art through sculptural forms and mixed media embroidery.
Through a thoughtful dialogue between material, cultural heritage, contemporary expression, and individual artistic perspectives, the exhibition offered an engaging exploration of the breadth and vitality of Latin American contemporary art. Each artist brought a singular approach to their medium, creating a cohesive presentation that celebrated both the diversity and shared sensibilities of the group.
This year’s edition was particularly rewarding, marked by strong sales, exceptional press recognition, and meaningful engagement with our established community of Swiss collectors alongside an international audience of returning and new clients. Over three consecutive years, Wolf & Nomad has continued to strengthen its relationships within the Swiss and European art communities, making our annual presence at Volta Basel an increasingly important part of the gallery’s international program.
We are proud to look back on another exceptional year in Basel and grateful to the collectors, collaborators, and visitors who made this presentation such a success.
