Art: art3f for the first time in Brussels

International contemporary art fair art3f is shifting the boundaries of traditional contemporary art within everyone’s reach. Drawing on five years of experience in organizing international contemporary art exhibitions throughout France, art3f is coming to Brussels for the first time. The fair will welcome around 200 exhibitors, independent artists, as well as national and international galleries.

What are the ambitions of the art3f fairs?
This is all about falling in love with art in real life, with real people, for real reasons, without ever taking the easy route. If today we bring art emotion and a dramatic selection together, tastefully and sincerely, it is all thanks to you.

You are now on the threshold of a pretty and fruitful stroll in the gardens of contemporary artistic expression.

Art for all

Open to galleries and artists, the art3f Brussels fair encourages direct contact between the exhibitors and the public. This way the artists and gallery owners easily convey their passion and spur curiosity. This first Brussels edition of the fair is the opportunity for everybody to acquire works, from the most affordable to the most prestigious artists.

Exhibition ease

The fair revolves around two exhibition zones: one is dedicated to the galleries and the other one is reserved for the artists. The event strives to have a specious layout in order to be open and attract innovative ways of interpreting the works.

A relaxed atmosphere

art3f strives to be a place of discussion and sharing. With jazz music in the background, visitors enjoy live performances.
