The 22nd edition of the fair welcomes 145 galleries presenting over 1 000 artists, in Brussels, centre and capital of Europe. artbrussels owes its standing and high-quality image first and foremost to the way in which it succeeds in bringing together under one roof established international artists and new upcoming talent.
