It should be little surprise that Art Basel chose Buenos Aires as the first participant in its new Art Basel Cities initiative. The Argentine capital thrums with creative energy, from street-art-filled Palermo to Puerto Madero, the neighborhood Alan Faena revitalized when he opened his namesake hotel in a former silo—now home to the new Alvear Icon Hotel & Residences. The program launched in November with a series of talks and events at the Art Basel Cities House and will continue to support cultural exchange with residences and a weeklong event of programming in September directed by Cecilia Alemani, director and chief curator of the High Line in New York and curator of the Italian pavilion at the 2017 Venice Biennale.
