    So far, the management is receiving a great number of applications from the international art galleries to participate in the exhibition. The applications in the very start of the schedule have been increased from those of 211 so far and more applications are expected in the days to come.

    According to the management of Art Basel Miami, 680 art galleries have submitted their applications to compete in the exhibition which is going to be held at Miami Beach. The exhibition will begin on December 6th and will continue until the 9th of the same month.

    However, the final names of the competing art galleries have been announced by the Art Basel body that include leading names of art galleries from across the world. The names of competing art galleries read as: 99 from the United States; 34 from Germany; 18 from France; 19 from Great Britain; 14 from Brazil; 11 from Italy; 10 from Switzerland; 9 each from Spain; 4 each from Austria, Belgium and Mexico; 3 each from Argentina and China; 2 each from Canada, Colombia, Denmark, Japan, Portugal, Turkey and South Africa; 1 each from Greece, Ireland, Israel, India, Iceland, Korea, Norway, Peru, Russia, Sweden and Uruguay.
