Slick art fair 2013 – Paris

And a new edition of Slick is about to arrive, and like in its previous edition SAF is willing to promote French art first without neglecting and dedicating nearly half of its space to other European artists.

This year 36 galleries as well as 13 SLICK Projects produced especially for the fair will be exhibiting by the Banks of the Seine, just under Alexandre III bridge… and not that far from that other well-known club.

Earlier this year SLICK launched the Collectors’ Prize in order to recognize the creativity, originality and professionalism of an artist presenting a SLICK Project. These large-scale works, made up of installations, videos, photography series, drawings or sculptures, are created be the artist and produced by the representing gallery especially for SLICK, in a special preview of the work. This first prize went last April, to Fred Penelle & Yannick Jacquet represented by the LKFF Art & Sculpture Projects gallery. Next weekend the second edition of the Collectors’ Prize will take place.

This year most galleries have chosen to focus on one theme, format (recently discovered photogray) or geographic area (China, Korea or Cuban artists).

From a central Garage to a more open air by the Seine option Slick Art Fair is a must-visit next weekend if you´re in Paris. More info on the programme and galleries this way.
