Beirut Art Fair 2015
Since its inception in 2010, BAF – Beirut Art Fair – established itself on the international artistic scene with the vision of a ME.NA.SA. (from Middle East, North Africa, South & South East Asia) labeled art which shaped its identity and power of attraction. In tune with the centers of interest of international collectors, the fair displays the creation of this region which stretches from Morocco to Indonesia, in its wide diversity. With the success in previous years, BAF confirmed its position on the map of international contemporary art fairs. This year, from 17 to 20 September, it will be the 6th edition of the fair and will reiterate its commitment to quality with collectors and cultural players in the Middle East. Exhibiting artists represent all of the trends of current art and express themselves through painting, drawing, sculpture, video, design or performance… Confirmed and developing artists mingle and invite the viewer to share their visions of the world, their dreams or their positions. The fair confirms the position of Beirut as the cultural and intellectual capital of the Arab world, at the junction between the East and the West. It is part of the international fairs dedicated to art and serves as a window for the ME.NA.SA. creation which is open to the world.
Beirut Art Fair #6 will take its place from 17 to 20 September 2015 at BIEL (Beirut International Exhibition Leisure Center), Beirut, Lebanon.
