PROMOTING SPANISH ART

ARCOmadrid, with the collaboration of AC/E and the coordination of Hablar en Arte, provides a service for the invited curators and other guests of this edition of the fair which primary focus lies on showcasing Spanish contemporary art at ARCOmadrid 2013.

Local curators will realize a professional and personalized visit to the international guests, helping them to get in contact with Spanish galleries and artists.

This new service will provide a special opportunity for the international curators and collectors as they will see the fair through the eyes of a curator who is specialized in the national scene and thus encourages the creation of future collaborations between Spain and abroad.

In order to prepare a truly personalized visit and to select galleries
