The Swiss exhibitions group MCH, organiser of the leading art fairs Art Basel and Art Basel Miami Beach, is buying a majority (60 per cent) stake in Asian Art Fairs Ltd, owner of the Hong Kong International Art Fair, HK11. The deal, due to be finalised in July, extends Basel’s reach into the potentially hugely lucrative Asian market. Earlier this year it was revealed that China has leapt to the number one place in auction terms, knocking out the traditional US/UK dominance of the art market.
