The Material Art Fair celebrates its seventh edition during the Mexico City Art Week in the Mexico City Frontón of the CDMX. During the days 7 to 9 February 2020, 78 galleries from 21 countries and 37 cities will participate in the fair,
At the Material Art Fair, art or design collectors can purchase all kinds of pieces at affordable prices. In addition to that you can talk with the artists, to talk about their work and explain the techniques they use.
You will find works by contemporary artists that are currently in fashion and whose works are highly sought after, such as works by: Gabriel Orozco, Jorge Pardo, Pae White and Frances Stark, among many other artists.
There is a part that I found interesting when I was reading the information of the fair, it is a section called: «Reading Material». This is a program dedicated to independent publishers and proposals for artists’ books, magazines and other publications related to contemporary art. 32 proposals from 8 countries will be presented, including the Sharjah Art Foundation of Dubai and aBC Art Book Fair of Beijing.
You can check all the participating galleries as the names of the artists on the official website of the fair.
