Conceived in 2011 by Italian collector Fabio Castelli, MIA&D Fair is set to bring art and design collectors, artists, curators, along with photography enthusiasts from around the world. The fair, which is held under the patronage of EXPO Milano 2015, the Embassy of Italy in Singapore and the Italian Institute of Culture, will be a platform for new encounters and cultural exchanges on photography, video and design between Asian and Western countries.
A new element of MIA&D Fair Singapore will be the Design section, which will showcase a curated selection of collectibles and furniture, which aims to propose a new dialogue between design and photography, thus distinguishing the fair from other art fairs in Singapore.
Following the success of this year’s MIA Fair in Milan which saw 20,000 attendees, the fair in Singapore will feature 120 artists, 50 international art galleries, spanning 30 countries, and will include curatorial sections such as “MIA Proposal” section, dedicated to emerging artists who are not represented by galleries. The fair will also showcase “Mekong Platform” entitled WATER/Life Line - Photography and Video art from Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam, curated by Loredana Pazzini-Paracciani, which will highlight diverse stories told by Mekong artists, focusing on their relationship with the river, as an unconditional source of life and a compelling inspiration.
