My Highlights from arteBA 2014
Though arteBA isn’t exactly a young fair, one could state that it is surprisingly fresh since so many talented Argentine artists are almost unknown outside of the country. The foreign visitor in search of discoveries will have a unique opportunity to fall in love with new names, new pieces, new ideas, probably not seen before in major international exhibitions. Nevertheless, like in every fair the biggest—which is not always the better—might monopolize the attention. Here’s a shortcut to some delicate, subtle, and exquisite emerging Argentine artists that you shouldn’t miss. Look for them and enjoy!
