FIAC

The FIAC (Foire internationale d'art contemporain) is back at the Grand Palais.
FIAC is now a regular Autumn feature at the Grand Palais, and its success has been growing for several years. The 2009 edition drew 80,000 visitors and the innovative centrepiece, "the modern project", a joint presentation of major modern works by ten of the world's top international galleries in a dedicated area of 300 m2, received critical and public acclaim.

This year, the 37th edition, running from October 21 to 24 in the Grand Palais and the Cour Carrée du Louvre, will provide yet another opportunity to discover new artists championed by some 200 top international modern, contemporary art and design galleries. The exciting interaction between painting, sculpture, photography and design is guaranteed to draw in professionals, amateurs and anyone with an inquisitive mind.

In partnership with the Louvre Museum, FIAC will also be presenting a programme of outdoor projects including installations and monumental sculptures in the Tuileries Gardens, accompanied by a performing arts programme.
