Founded in 1970 by gallerists from Basel, Art Basel is the world’s premier art fair for modern and contemporary art. This year in Miami Beach, Art Basel will bring together 286 leading international galleries from 38 countries to present artworks of the highest quality across all media — from painting and sculpture to photography and digital works. Art Basel will once again reaffirm its unparalleled position as a platform for discovery and encounters that drive the art world.


“Art Basel’s mission is to power the world of art by connecting leading artists and galleries with art loving audiences,” said Noah Horowitz, CEO of Art Basel. “Our collaboration with Samsung allows us to extend that reach like never before by broadening access to leading galleries and significant works from established artists to a new generation of emerging talents.”


Yong Su Kim, EVP and Global Head of Video Services and Partnerships at Samsung, echoed the excitement surrounding this partnership. “Art Basel represents the pinnacle of contemporary art, and we are thrilled to amplify that experience with leading display technology that brings art to millions of people,” Kim said. “Through the Samsung Art Store and the lifelike visuals of The Frame, we are making it possible for anyone to experience Art Basel and take part in an iconic cultural moment.”

 

Samsung Art Store Collectors Lounge to Feature Industry Panels, Interactive Activation and More

 

As the Official Display Partner of Art Basel Miami Beach, Samsung is hosting a dedicated Samsung Art Store Collectors Lounge from December 4-8 under the concept, “Bringing Art Home,” where attendees can enjoy remarkable artworks on The Frame’s museum-worthy display. In addition, visitors will see The Frame showcased with unique bezels in various colors and designs from DecoTVFrames, an official Samsung partner exclusively available for The Frame.


The Frame will also be installed throughout the fair to present visitors with a variety of vivid screen experiences.

 

In addition to its dynamic Collectors Lounge experience, Samsung is hosting a series of panel discussions featuring influential voices from the contemporary art world. These sessions include:

As the home for Samsung Art Store, The Frame has been refreshed in 2024 to deliver an even more complete artistic and aesthetic experience. That includes Pantone Validated ArtfulColor Certification,  the industry leading color experts. The Frame is the world’s first and only art TV to achieve this validation, ensuring natural and realistic visuals that wouldn’t look out of place in a gallery. It also sports an Anti-Reflection with Matte Display, helping you limit light distractions so your artwork appears even more true-to-life. The Frame hangs just like a picture flush against the wall and is available in class sizes ranging from 55 to 85 inches. 

 

The Frame also delivers value-add features that you can only find from Samsung — the #1 global TV brand for 18 years and counting.  Samsung technology makes everything you watch look clearer and crisper. You can also use your TV as your smart home hub and ensure your personal data is protected by Samsung Knox security.
