miart is ready: the first italian fair to return in presence


Milan, 14 September 2021 - miart, the Milanese international modern and #contemporaryart fair organised by Fiera Milano, now in its twenty-fifth edition, returns from 17 to 19 September 2021 (VIP preview 16 September) and will be directed for the first time by Nicola Ricciardi.

142 galleries from 19 Countries in addition to Italy, traditionally divided in 5 sections (Established Contemporary, Established Masters, Emergent, Decades, Generations), will present the works of established contemporary artists, modern masters and emerging young artists in the pavilions of fieramilanocity_MiCo. With a path full of dialogues, discoveries and rediscoveries that goes from the beginning of the 20th century to the creations of the latest generations, #miart maintains its international character, confirming itself as an #event characterized by a wide chronological offer.

The fair, the first in Italy to return to its edition in presence, will be flanked by miart digital, a #digital platform divided in thematic areas which will enrich the experience of visitors with original multimedia content and will give to an audience from all over the world - that won’t be able to participate in person - the chance of exploring the works on display and establishing a direct contact with gallery owners through a dedicated chat.

miart #digital will also allow a direct virtual connection with Investec Cape Town Art Fair, the South African art fair organized by Fiera Milano which will take place, exclusively in #digital, during the same days of #miart (17-19 September 2021, preview by invitation 15-16 September).

This year #miart will pay special attention to the poetic word – interpreted as a form of universal language – starting from the title chosen to accompany the 2021 edition: Dismantling the silence, from the eponymous collection of verses by the Serbian-born American poet Charles Simić, fifty years since its publication. This interest was expressed in a series of initiatives designed to enhance new dialogues between past and present, history and experimentation, and to promote the blossoming of new forms of communication between all the subjects that have always animated the Milanese fair.
