Very often other galleries gather together and rent alternative space other than where the main Art Basel is held. One such group is called Scope. This space was located about 4 blocks from the main Art Basel location. We walked over late in the afternoon and were pleased to see gallery space that was more accessible, people who were more willing to talk, and in general a more receptive atmosphere. At one end of the long corridor was a small cafe. Since the rain came down in buckets, we had a chance to sit and watch those attending. They were quite a different crowd than those we had seen earlier in the day--more artists, more young people, fewer high end buyers.
