Vernissage November 10th

ARTssima, The International Fair of Contemporary Art in Turin is coming soon. The 12th edition will take place from Friday 11th to Sunday 13th : a 3 days trip beyond the border of contemporary to see the most advanced tendencies, to know the outstanding names and those who will be soon on a world-wide stage.
MAIN GALLERIES: 152 art galleries selected among the most relevant in the world, coming from 19 countries, represent the core of the Fair. Among the new exhibitors, the participation of American galleries is particularly consistent, not only from New York, but from the west coast too. PRESENT FUTURE: 10 special projects created by young artists expressly for the Fair and selected by five international curators – Patrick Charpenel, Emma Dexter, Massimiliano Gioni, Heike Munder, Rochelle Steiner. NEW ENTRIES: 21 avant-garde galleries, all established after 2000 and new to Artissima, selected by the Board of Directors. CONSTELLATIONS: 8 large size artworks, on display in different areas scattered within the Fair, selected by the Fairs Scientific Committee Maxwell L. Anderson, Ida Gianelli, Pier Giovanni Castagnoli. CONVERSATIONS & WORKSHOPS: this year the discussion will focus on a very essential question: “Art in the age of mechanical consumption: is originality the next casualty?” through three conversations with museum directors, curators and artists such as Carlos Basualdo, Iwona Blazwick, Dieter Schwarz, Jean-Marc Bustamante, Ricardo Basbaum, Bruna Esposito, Rita McBride, Cesare Pietroiusti, Annie Ratti, Grazia Toderi, Jeanne Van Heeswijk, Lawrence Weiner. The programme, under the direction of the Scientific Committee, will include as well a conversation with artists and correspondents of T1, the Turin Triennial Thremuseums, and three workshops on very topical subjects in contemporary art.
ACQUISITIONS: as from many years the citysmuseums and foundations have been purchasing works of art at Artissima for their permanent collections. The same acquisitions policy has already been confirmed for the 2005 Fairs edition by public and art institutions. Among them Fondazione CRT has already announced a purchase fund of euros 400,000. The members of the prestigious Fondazione CRT Scientific Committee, responsible for the selection of the artworks Sir Nicholas Serota, Rudi Fuchs, David Ross, Ida Gianelli and Pier Giovanni Castagnoli – will attend Artissima in order to decide the acquisitions. IN THE CITY: Turin, a city devoted on the whole to contemporary art in November, on the occasion of Artissima 12 will host outstanding events such us: the opening of T1, Turin Triennial Thremuseums (the new young artists Triennial), Luci dartista, light installations by renowned artists, Saturday Night Art Fever, the special art galleries night opening and many other relevant exhibitions in museums and public art spaces.
