The Art Paris Art Fair is the leading springtime event in Paris, bringing together 140 galleries from 20 countries at the Grand Palais. The fair presents a wide panorama of Modern and Contemporary Art, including photography, design, and art books. With a strong international focus, the fair has positioned itself as a pioneer in the exploration of regions of the world whose artistic creation is seldom, if ever, shown in France. The Art Paris Art Fair looks at different geographic regions of the art world, taking visitors off the beaten track to places like Casablanca, Bangkok, Zürich, Moscow, Bucharest, and Singapore. Singapore and Southeast Asia are guests of honor in 2015. The general section this year includes some 30 solo shows. Promises, the section dedicated to young galleries, the Art Books section, for coffee table and artists' books, and the ArtDesign platform that explores the links between Contemporary Art and design all combine to give the Art Paris Art Fair its unique identity as a European fair focusing on discovery, on dialogue among different art forms, and on the relationship between East and West.
