Presentation

Madrid will once again become a centre for the antiques, decorative arts and paintings market with the staging of the thirty-fiveth edition of FERIARTE, the Art and Antiques Fair, an event organised by IFEMA that is due to take place between 19th and 27th November, in Hall 4 at Feria de Madrid. This fair will bring together some 128 Spanish antique-dealers and gallery-owners, as well as a international selection.

FERIARTE will adapt to a new, more functional and more attractive space organised around a central square, which will incorporate a relaxation area, a bar and an area for staging conferences and roundtables. The antiques dealers and galleries will be presented around the square in their respective areas. 

In this respect, collectors, art-lovers and art enthusiasts will be able to enjoy a more comfortable visit to the fair, whilst admiring and purchasing a series of pieces of considerable artistic value, all of which are at least 100 years old. Visitors will come across thousands of items belonging to different styles, ages and specialised fields. These unique and exclusive works make FERIARTE the very best showcase for antiques and collectables in Spain, whilst for more than a decade the fair has also served as a key point of reference for collectors and admirers of high-quality painting from the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Furniture items, classic antiques, paintings (both old and contemporary), sculptures, timepieces, porcelain, lamps, silver, glass, Oriental art and tribal art, jewellery and other objets d'art, confirms the improvement in quality standards and diversification that the fair has witnessed in recent years. Furthermore, the more than 27,000 visitors who are expected to attend FERIARTE will be able to acquire a number of pieces that have been especially reserved for sale during the course of the fair.

Favourite Piece

Given its aim is to stimulate an interest in art and introduce people who feel the call of art to collecting, FERIARTE has suggested to all its exhibitors that they select one of their favourite pieces and tell us what it is that moved them to acquire it, what is unique about it and why it is important to them.

This selection of works, which goes under the title "PIEZA FAVORITA" (FAVOURITE PIECE) will be distinguished on each stand by a special label, so visitors can admire them and share the antique dealer or gallery owner's knowledge of their special piece.

We hope you enjoy visiting FERIARTE and fall in love with the history, journey and passion FERIARTE's Favourite Pieces contain.

Young Collector's Gallery

This year's edition of the fair will also feature the  Young  Collectors' Gallery, an area in which new decorative arts collectors will be able to admire and purchase works of considerable interest and beauty at some affordable prices.

This stand will offer a series of pieces all priced under 3,000 euros, thus confirming the fact that collecting and a taste for antiques do not necessarily entail a high financial outlay. In this manner, FERIARTE aims to bring the decorative arts closer to all members of the public. Based on a similar objective and following the success achieved at the last edition, the fair will feature prominently on various social networks, especially on Facebook (www.facebook.com/feriarte); Flickr (http://www.flickr.com/photos/feriarte/), and soon, on Twitter, where users will be able to keep up to date with all the latest new features at FERIARTE and at the participating antiques dealers and art galleries.
