This selection of artists offers an approach to practices that, although from different contexts, generations and languages, share a precise attention to how art is produced in relation to society, material and experiences.

At this edition, architecture and design once again take centre stage. This year, the ongoing and unwavering support for creativity is even greater and extends to the common areas, publications and even the clothing of the fair’s team.

ARCOmadrid continues its commitment to collecting, to promoting artists and to its desire to foster contacts that will help to boost purchases at the Feria. At ARCO, private national and international companies take part in initiatives to encourage acquisitions and to recognise artistic creation by presenting various awards. Some are aimed at the actual production of artworks, while others reward some of the artworks exhibited by the galleries at ARCOmadrid. All of them recognise and promote artistic creation, sometimes linked to aspects identified with the brands that sponsor them.
