Now accepting applications for the 2016 edition of the fair.
The 43rd FIAC will be held in Paris from Thursday, October 20 to Sunday, October 23 in the Grand Palais. The vernissage will take place on Wednesday, October 19.
FIAC’s General Sector will feature some 160 galleries specialising in modern and contemporary art presenting a balanced panorama of the artistic creation from the modern masters to the most emerging trends.
The Lafayette Sector, a programme launched in 2009 by FIAC and the Groupe Galeries Lafayette (official sponsor), provides significant financial support for ten French and international galleries founded in or after 2005, and presenting one or two emerging artists.
Galleries will be deployed in the exceptional spaces of the Grand Palais: the Nave, the Salon d’honneur, and the Upper Galleries located on the first floor of the Grand Palais.
Application forms are available for completion online and will be open until Wednesday, March 16. For all queries relating to your applications, please contact the Exhibitor Relations service.
Hors les Murs programme
The programme of outdoor sculptures and installations, artists’ performances, and films is presented in the Tuileries Garden in collaboration with the Louvre Museum, the Jardin des Plantes & Muséum National d’Histoire Naturelle, the garden of the Musée Eugène Delacroix and the Place Vendôme, together with a cycle of conversations at the Ecole nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Paris.
Application forms for the Hors les Murs programs are also available online until Friday, July 8.
In Paris during FIAC
Our In Paris During FIAC programme brings together a network of over 100 cultural institutions, including major museums, arts centres, private foundations and collections such as the Louvre Museum, the Centre Pompidou, the Palais de Tokyo, the Musée Picasso, the Fondation Louis Vuitton, the Grand Palais, the Musée d’Art moderne de la Ville de Paris, the Château de Versailles, the Arts Décoratifs, and the Petit Palais, but also places like the Odeon-Theatre de l’Europe, Opéra National de Paris, and the Philharmonie, that constantly build relationships with contemporary art. In 2016, the rich programme of these institutions presents leading figures and explores different medias and periods: Magritte and Jean-Luc Moulène will be shown in the Centre Pompidou, the Fondation Louis Vuitton will exhibit the legendary Shchukin collection, the Musée d’Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris will present Carl André and Bernard Buffet, while a very expected Tino Sehgal exhibition will be on view at the Palais de Tokyo. Picasso’s link to Giacometti will be explored at the Picasso Museum. The Louvre will investigate the complex relations between artists and representations of power.
