His gallery has been exhibiting at the fair since 1978; it now has locations in Berlin, Stockholm and Mexico City. To mark the occasion, the gallery is showing the 1954 work Davi by Olle Baertling, the first artist it ever showed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"pt-dp-p font-text-light font-light text-lg leading-normal tracking-wide mb-base last:mb-0\" itemprop=\"text\">Asked about how the fair has changed, Nordenhake says he would rather consider how Art Basel \u201chas maintained its spot as the most important meeting place to reach collectors, both old and new\u201d. Asked for his advice for any new gallerists starting today, he says: \u201cDefine a realm where your particular interest lies and stick to that. You might lose a few collectors, but you will also honour your beliefs and gain in\u00a0credibility.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"pt-dp-p font-text-light font-light text-lg leading-normal tracking-wide mb-base last:mb-0\" itemprop=\"text\">Nordenhake will be in conversation tomorrow with M\u00e1rcia Fortes of Fortes D\u2019Aloia &amp; Gabriel and Karen Jenkins-Johnson of Jenkins Johnson Gallery, talking about how businesses can survive and thrive in the art world. Moderated by The Art Newspaper\u2019s podcast host, Ben Luke, the event is at 11.30am in the Event Halle Basel, Messeplatz.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Celebrating 50 years in business is the Art Basel regular Claes Nordenhake.
