Marrakech will soon have it art fair: the Marrakech Art Fair which will be held from October 9 to 11, 2010.
The first edition of this event will take place at the Es Saadi Palace. Galleries from Europe, Morocco and the Arab world will invite art amateurs and collectors to present their recent discoveries during a four-day event. Modern art, contemporary art, and emerging scenes will be high on the agenda, during an ephemeral leisure staged between patio and garden through art works and creations from the 20th and 21st centuries. Visitors will be given the opportunity to walk through the fair either to look for novelties or just to rediscover the works by internationally-renowned artists.
A series of cultural and artistic events will take place along with the launch of Marrakech Art Fair, such as exhibitions in cultural centres, visits of artists’ studios, presentations of private collections and more.
The Marrakech Art Fair intends to become the yearly appointment of the art market in the Kingdom of Morocco, and to enhance its visibility beyond its borders to be part of the international contemporary art fair calendar.
Congratulations for this initiative and good luck!
