The
success of the first edition of MENART FAIR in 2021 globally exceeded
the expectations of its organizers and its second edition, from May 19
to 22, proved to be promising: the majority of exhibitors declared
themselves enthusiastic about their participation in the fair and wish
to participate in the next one. The 1,824 registered visitors (70% were
from France) unanimously appreciated the great diversity and richness
of the works exhibited.
On Sunday afternoon, May 22, more than 300 people returned to visit the fair. |
Among the many events held in Paris last week, MENART FAIR succeeded in attracting a growing number of collectors.
Visitors were unanimously pleasantly surprised by the increasing
quality of the exhibitors and the works presented, as well as the
scenography of the space.
