Dear _____,

Monday during Art Basel week is Liste Day. It has been this way since 1996.

For this year’s edition, we asked artist and DJ Courtesy, artist and snowboarder Iouri Podladtchikov, writer and artist Olga Hohmann, PROVENCE members art advisor Claire Shiying Li, artist Aisha Altenhofen and artist Samuel Haitz to share their highlights from Liste 2026.

Each selected three participating artists, galleries, or presentations, alongside one non-art-world recommendation: a café, restaurant, shop, or place worth visiting while in Basel.

See their selections below.

Yours,
PROVENCE

Non-art-world recommendation: 
the Manor food court on the top floor. I always go there to hide, enjoy the view and have a Vermicelle. Or two. It’s the most generic place in town, just a department store, it could really be anywhere. I love that.
