border-bottom: #0066cc 1px dashed;\">Basel<\/span>, but then in addition all the other cool fringe fairs.\u00a0 There was surely awesome stuff to be seen there that we didn&#8217;t even touch on.\u00a0\u00a0 Now I&#8217;ll know for next year to make a succinct plan to follow&#8230;and hopefully return someday as a participating artist!<\/div>\n<div>&#8212;
