24-27 September
Lingotto Fiere
Director: Roberto Casiraghi
Visitors: 22,000
Galleries: 95 from 10 countries
The fifth edition of the fair widened its European range: on the one hand with the introduction of a special overview of a guest country (Spain) focusing on the specificities of local artistic production, and on the other with the collaboration between ARTissima and Art Brussels, the international contemporary art fair, to encourage professional interaction and contacts for participating galleries.
Two new prizes were created for the “Vernice Fresca” and “Solofoto” sections, and the collateral events included the project “The Metropolitan Aesthetic” in collaboration with the Department of the Environment and Sustainable Growth of the City of Torino, to produce artistic actions across the municipal territory. In this direction, a competition was organised, entitled “Pareti ad Arte”, won by Nancy Dwyer, Marcus Kreiss and Darya von Berner.
