Every year brings a new group of guests to Todi.
However, guests of previous years remain de-facto members of our ever-enlarging Todi Circle, and as such are kept abreast of developments. All Todi Fellows receive the next year’s guest list, their biographies, and news that affects the entire group, such as events we have hosted in New York, Paris Photo, and the Basel Art Fair
