The eagerly anticipated Menart Fair, Europe’s unique celebration of Middle East and North Africa (MENA) art and design, returns for its 4th edition at the iconic Palais d’Iéna in Paris. Showcasing the rich and diverse creative expressions from the MENA region, the event is set to captivate visitors from the 15th to the 17th of September.
Featuring an impressive lineup of 31 galleries hailing from 11 countries, along with 6 art foundations and institutions from 4 countries, Menart Fair presents an eclectic blend of art and design, seamlessly bridging the gap between the Middle East and North Africa. This exceptional event brings together rising stars and established talents from the burgeoning art scene.
Dance and music performances, insightful round table discussions, a riveting concert, a gastronomic area, and a captivating off-site program will provide a multifaceted experience for visitors. This crossroads of discoveries and encounters, pulsating with cultural vibrancy, promises unique opportunities for immersion and appreciation.
The fair is held under the distinguished sponsorship of the Ministry of Culture and aligns seamlessly with the European Heritage Days. Menart Fair is an international platform for modern and contemporary artists from the Levant, Arab-Persian Gulf, and North Africa, meticulously selected by influential galleries.
Located within the exquisite Palais d’Iéna, designed by the visionary architect Auguste Perret, the fair basks in the palace’s luminous ambience. As the seat of the Economic, Social and Environmental Council and the third assembly of the Republic, the palace stands as a testament to the event’s grandeur.
Menart Fair’s enchanting scenography takes inspiration from the palace’s architectural elegance, enhancing the visitors’ experience. After the resounding success of the previous editions in Paris and Brussels, this edition promises to be an extraordinary celebration of MENA art and design, amplified by the exquisite surroundings.
Join us at Menart Fair as we explore the creative tapestry of the MENA region and engage in a cultural journey that transcends boundaries.
