“The rapid spread of the most recent pandemic variant in Italy,” reads a note, is leading to a situation of general concern and uncertainty in the trade fair arena. Faced with this scenario, BolognaFiere, after extensive discussions with galleries, announces that the 45th edition of Arte Fiera will not take place on the scheduled dates of January 21-23, but will be postponed. The new dates of the event will be announced as soon as possible, and in any case soon."

“This was obviously not an easy choice,” says Antonio Bruzzone, General Director of BolognaFiere. “It was taken first and foremost out of regard for the gallerists, who expect an event that lives up to its tradition and standard in terms of public and operator participation. We are confident that we will be able to find a location in our exhibition calendar that will allow Arte Fiera 2022 to take place with the best results for gallerists and collectors.”
