Traditionally the section of NEW CONTEMPORARIES is the place to make unusual and exciting discoveries: for this year’s ART COLOGNE 40 young international galleries have been selected by the Advisory Board to present positions from their programme. The section is designed to foreground less-established galleries with a forward looking agenda to promote emerging art. It provides the young enterprises with a top-flight platform to present their programmes to an international public. Each newcomer will be allocated a 30 square meter exhibition stand. The presentation is supported by Maurice Lacroix, our partner in making the NEW CONTEMPORARIES section possible. During the course of the fair, a newly announced jury will select and present the MAURICE LACROIX ART AWARD for NEW CONTEMPORARIES to the best stand among the 40 young galleries. New members of the jury are: Dorothea Lendricke, director Neue Aachener Kunstverein, and Vanessa Joan Mueller, director Kunstverein der Rheinlande und Westfalen, Dusseldorf.
