Article
ART-O-RAMA, Marseilles' international contemporary art fair, has revealed the list of participating galleries for its 10th year anniversary edition, running from August 26 through 28 at La Friche la Belle de Mai, the city’s former tobacco factory turned hub for creativity.

For its 2016 edition, the fair will welcome 22 of the most active and avant-garde international contemporary art galleries, including Antoine Levi, (Paris) P420, (Bologna) Ellen de Bruijne Projects (Amsterdam) and Meessen De Clercq (Brussels).

Alongside bigger names in the art world, the fair will also continue its legacy as supporter of younger talent: some of the participating galleries are less than a year old, and their participation at ART-O-RAMA will be their first ever participation in an art fair. All participating galleries are invited to design their own booths, creating an exclusive layout in line with the project they are presenting.

The 2016 Show-Room — the offshoot project aimed at bringing forth work by four young fine art graduates from the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur Region — will showcase pieces by Sabrina Belouaar, Jeanne Berbinau Aubry, Jean-Loup Faurat, and Clémentine Roche, all chosen by Italian curator Luigi Fassi.

Barcelona-based non-profit collective The Green Parrot and artist Rafaela Lopez will each present a site-specific project, whilst French art critic Cédric Aurelle will moderate a series of panels on the emergence of new contemporary art scenes.

The full list of exhibiting galleries is available on ART-O-RAMA’s website.
