ARCOmadrid 2018

ARCOmadrid 2018

In this edition of the great event of contemporary art, changes and innovative gestures will be reflected from the concept of the fair. Thus, all the works, art galleries and activities will reflect on the time that we will have to live. That concept, under which the whole agenda will revolve is "the future is not what is going to happen, but what we are going to do", a quote from the writer Jorge Luis Borges that inspires the objective proposed by the commissioners Chus Martínez, Elise Lammer and Rosa Lleó.

All the activities that will be developed within this edition of ARCOmadrid 2018, will allow us to open ourselves to a more complex and more complete vision of what awaits us and how art and culture can be part of the generation of everything that is to come.

In line with the spirit of this new edition of ARCOmadrid, and for the second year in a row, during the International Contemporary Art Fair, the II Catalina D'Anglade Award will be held, which will recognize the creativity of one of the artists participating in this great event. of avant-garde art.

A group of experts and art critics will advise on the selection of the winner of the acquisition prize who will have the opportunity to make a work thanks to the patronage of the designer Catalina D'Anglade. With this award, D'Anglade reinforces its commitment to modern art.
