New Spanish Art Fair Joins ArcoMadrid
Yet another new contemporary art fair has been born, calling itself JUST MADRID. It will be taking place at the same time as ARCOMadrid from 18 - 21 February 2010, taking into account the international public travelling to the city during this time.
The fair will be held at La Lonja and Nave de Terneras in two unique industrial buildings with metal, brick and glass structures - perfect for hosting a fair of this kind.
JUST MADRID is being curated by art director Virginia Torrente, and is dedicated exclusively to emerging artists.
The fair aims to cover a pressing need in the Spanish contemporary art market to provide room for galleries that represent promising new artists, so it’s a shame that over 60% of galleries participating are coming from outside Spain.
JUST MADRID also has fringe sections titled Curators’ Desks, featuring curated spaces and Big Size Outside, a selection of installation-sculpture pieces presented by participating galleries and located in the area surrounding Nave de Terneras.
All the projects on show at JUST MADRID will be created specifically for the stands at the fair, and based on innovation, risk-taking and new formats showcasing a range of talent and promising new artists.
Hopefully, collectors and institutions investing in new talent will find in JUST MADRID an exciting selection of galleries and artists and it will be interesting to see what kind of response the show creates.
