From up-and-coming artists to household names
Art3f describes itself as “a clever mix of Coup de coeur art, affordable art and the most wonderful artistic representation of the moment”. The fair seeks to shift “the boundaries of traditional contemporary art trade fairs by giving these cultural events back their warm, human side”. Most of the artists on show in Monaco have been selected by the fair’s committee: you will find both rising talents and long-established names. Art galleries will also be amongst the exhibitors.
The fair will take place Friday August 21st from 4pm to 11pm, Saturday August 22nd from 10am to 8pm and Sunday August 23rd from 10am to 7pm. Exhibitors will preview their work on Friday from 6 pm onwards. Entrances is free for minors and costs 10€ for adults. You can also get an invitation from the art fair’s official website.
