MediaBistro's Design blog UnBeige has some fun overheards from the Mazel Basel parade. Here's a smattering:
Guy at Photo Miami walking around with a computer and a phone, and apparently, with a live feed to his class.
Guy: Want to say hello to my students? We have to do it two ways--by phone and by picture. This is my new media class.
Art shopper: How much for the shoes?
Dealer: $275,000
Ultrathin "booth babe" on the convention center floor gazes at a painting; potential male client gazes at her.
Booth Babe: It really is a beautiful piece.
Male Client: You look amazing. Have you lost weight?
Festivalgoer: Are you here for the art or the Basel?
Father talking to his young daughter as they walk dazedly out of Art Basel on Sunday evening:
But if we bought that painting, we probably couldn't afford to send you to college.
