The most important art fair in Latin America,
SP–Arte celebrates the booming art and design market in its 19th edition. From
March 29 to April 2 , the Bienal Pavilion will host more than
150 exhibitors , including national and international art galleries, design studios, publishers, cultural institutions and independent spaces.
The traditional home of SP–Arte since its creation, the pavilion designed by
Oscar Niemeyer will host exhibitors from eight countries (Argentina, Brazil, Colombia, Spain, the United States, France, Peru, and Uruguay) and 20 Brazilian cities, including Belo Horizonte, Brasília, and Fortaleza, in addition to São Paulo. For Fernanda Feitosa, founder and director of SP–Arte, the fair is an
example of how art positively influences the city's agenda, boosts the entire industry chain, and projects the country's image worldwide . "Due to its successful and resilient trajectory over almost two decades, SP-Arte is now a landmark in the national cultural calendar. The event brings together the best selection of artists and exhibitors in the country and a rich program that makes SP-Arte a
unique experience for visitors."
This year, the fair celebrates the
growth of almost 30% in the design sector compared to the last edition , now bringing together 44 exhibitors. Newcomers FAS,
Guto Requena and Porfirio Valadares join the participants who have been at the fair since the sector debuted in 2016, such as ETEL, ,ovo, Teo and Jacqueline Terpins. The event will also welcome a group of eleven international galleries. Among the new foreign artists this year are Galerie Younique, Maât Gallery, Night Gallery and Nil Gallery. After successful experiences in previous editions of the event, the galleries El Museo/Fernando Pradilla, Galería de las Misiones, Galería Sur, Opera Gallery, Piero Atchugarry and Zielinsky will return, with a special mention for the presence of the Argentine Herlitzka + Faria. Among the Brazilian galleries, not only are important ones such as A Gentil Carioca, Almeida & Dale, Fortes D'Aloia e Gabriel, Gomide&Co, Luisa Strina, Mendes Wood DM and Millan, but also the younger ones, such as Galatea, Central, Quadra, Lima Galeria and Asfalto — the last two being newcomers this year.
