Buying art at Viennafair & ARTmART
Viennafair, the international contemporary art fair runs from April 26 – 29, 2007 and brings together about 100 leading international galleries from 17 countries to showcase contemporary European art. Side events include a newcomers’ exhibition and a panel discussion open to all visitors.
Some 1,500 artists will be showcased at Viennafair, including top Austrian artists Peter Kogler, Valie Export and Erwin Wurm and stars of the international art world such as Raymond Pettibon and Günter Förg. Along with the “bridge galleries” that focus on the contemporary art scene in Central and Southeastern Europe, other exhibitors from Austria and abroad will also be showing a large amount of recent work. Viennafair is an ideal opportunity to encounter and purchase work by Central European artists.
This year’s event will be the first to feature an exhibition space dubbed “Zone 1″ where newcomers to the art scene will be introduced by galleries. There will also be an open invitation to fairgoers to participate in a panel discussion on the subject of art biennales.
