Arriving punctually with the start of the
Berlin autumn art season, PREVIEW BERLIN – The Emerging Art
Fair promises to be, for the fifth time, a place for
discoveries. With more than 13,000 visitors last year, PREVIEW
BERLIN distinguished itself as one of the most popular meeting
points of the international art scene. For the new edition of
the fair, PREVIEW BERLIN will move to the main hall of the
former Tempelhof airport, showcasing a new fair
concept.
PREVIEW BERLIN – The Emerging Art Fair will take place
concurrently with the most outstanding annual event of the
international art world in the German capital – ARTFORUM
BERLIN. Since it was founded in 2005 by two Berlin gallerists
and one artist for young galleries and project spaces, PREVIEW
BERLIN has become one of the most important events in the
Berlin autumn art season. The aim of the fair is to create a
platform to strengthen emerging artistic positions in the
market, and to serve as a link among young artists and the
international art world, including curators, art critics,
collectors and art enthusiasts.
PREVIEW BERLIN will take place this year in the main
hall of the former Tempelhof airport. With a usable area of
approx. 3,000 sqm, this impressive site inspired the fair
organizers to present a new fair concept for this year’s
edition, namely foregoing the classical fair booth
construction aiming to curate the entire
exhibition.
A
fair without walls and a challenging architectural space
represent the starting points of this year’s fair concept.
Forty-seven exhibitors from 13 countries will showcase works
from a new generation of emerging artists whose work is based
on a sculptural approach or one based on installation. These
artists were selected for the innovative and artistic
character of their work. During the selection process itself,
organizers aimed to develop continuing and substantial
evaluation criteria, naturally in conjunction with the
conceptual questioning of the art fair model
itself.
Many
of the works were either created especially for PREVIEW BERLIN
or will be presented to a broader audience for the first time
at the fair. Last but not least, this year’s fair concept aims
in general to inspire a more lively and substantial discussion
with its presentation concept.
