Artissima is Italy’s most important contemporary art fair. Since its establishment in 1994, it has combined the presence of an international market with a focus on experimentation and research.
Galleries from around the world participate every year. In addition to the 4 flaghisp sections (Main Section, Monologue/Dialogue, New Entries, Art Spaces & Editions), Artissima is also composed of 3 curated sections, headed by a board of international curators and museum directors, devoted to emerging artists (Present Future), to the rediscovery of the pioneers of contemporary art (Back to the Future) and to the drawing (Disegni).
In 2025, the fair will be hosted from 31 October to 2 November (30 October preview by invitation) in Torino.
The fair is curated by Artissima Srl, a company connected with the Fondazione Torino Musei.
