18th edition of SP-ARTE livens up the Biennale Pavilion

The 18th edition of SP-Arte - São Paulo International Art Festival continues until next Sunday (10), at the Biennial Pavilion, Ibirapuera Park, with the most important art and design galleries in Brazil. The event brings together 100 art galleries, eight of which are international, and over 30 design galleries.

For Fernanda Feitosa, founder of SP-Arte, "the entire sector is mobilized to return to our Festival, which, for many, represents around 30% of the year's sales. We are happy to see the agents of the circuit engaged with holding events and exhibitions around SP-Arte, which echoes the impact of the festival."

Back to Pavilhão da Bienal, SP-Arte will gather national galleries in strong rise, the main Brazilian galleries with solid international projection and also foreign exhibitors. Among the national galleries are Galeria Luisa Strina (SP), Fortes D'Aloia & Gabriel (SP - RJ), A Gentil Carioca (RJ - SP), Mendes Wood DM (SP - NY - Brussels), Nara Roesler (SP - NY - RJ) and Galeria Jaqueline Martins (SP - Brussels).

Among the newcomers are Galeria Marco Zero, which has been stirring up the art scene in Recife (PE), and Galeria Marli Matsumoto (SP), which opened last year presenting consolidated and emerging artists.

Besides the Rio-SP axis, SP-Arte counts with the presence of Paulo Darzé and Roberto Alban (Salvador), Amparo 60 (Recife), Referência (Brasília), Celma Albuquerque and Periscópio (BH), Simões de Assis (Curitiba) and Ybakatu (Florianópolis).

Among the international names are Galleria Continua (which operates in Brazil, as well as Italy, China, Canada, Cuba and France); Galería SUR, which has been present at SP-Arte since its first edition, and Galeria de las Misiones, both from Uruguay; Buenos Aires Fine Arts (Argentina); Zielinsky (Spain); and Lamb Arts (United Kingdom). Besides these, two important galleries from the United States will participate in the fair: Opera Gallery and Piero Atchugarry Gallery.

The design sector is back with a bang, presenting thirty offices and galleries specialising in furniture and Brazilian design. Leading exhibitors include Etel, ,Ovo, Loja Teo, Jacqueline Terpins, Atelier Hugo França and Passado Composto Séc. XX (all from São Paulo), as well as several newcomers such as Wentz and Diletante, also from São Paulo, and the designer collective Cultivado em Casa, from Minas Gerais.
