DRAWING NOW PARIS l LE SALON DU DESSIN CONTEMPORAIN is the leading contemporary art fair in Europe exclusively dedicated to drawings.
After nomadism and four years at the Carrousel du Louvre, DRAWING NOW PARIS enters a new era: for its 8th edition, the Fair will change its location to be held at the Carreau du Temple and the Espace Commines (Paris 03) from Thursday 27th to Sunday 30th of March 2014.
An independent committee of well-known figures from the art world will select around 80 galleries.
DRAWING NOW PARIS I LE PARCOURS already brings together the modern and contemporary drawing exhibitions held in museums, art centres, foundations and private venues in Paris and around France in a friendly partnership. It will be now expending to parisian galleries. The organiser wishes to create a major event to mobilise french and foreigns collectors with the development of a circulation between the Carreau du Temple, the Espace Commines, the galleries and the institution in all the neighbourhood.
Shuttles will be at the audience disposal during the entire week.
Collectors, curators and art-lovers are invited to (re)discover the contemporary artistic scene through the drawings of well-known and emerging artists.
