CIRCA Puerto Rico 08 International Art Fair

The Puerto Rico Convention Center will host CIRCA Puerto Rico 08, an International Art Fair. This will the third year that Puerto Rico will host the fair. Last year, the fair enjoyed 12,000 visitors and this year, the organizers are hoping to exceed more than 15,000 visitors. The art fair opens on April 11th and continues through April 14th.




In just two years, CIRCA Puerto Rico has shown its potential to give new visibility to the Caribbean art world where an exciting mix of regional artists, gallerists, institutions and collectors, together with a selection of young international galleries, offered a very personal and dynamic art fair. Among the highlights of the fair is “In the Spot”, a curated cutting edge artists’ section which offers curators the possibility of setting up a concept based exhibition from works exhibited at the fair and engage in a critical dialogue with the audience. Other sections include “Solo” in which individual artists present special projects, “District CIRCA”, where art publications present their latest editions, and a section for non-profit institutions.

356 (Puerto Rico), Air de Paris (Paris), Blow de la Barra (London), Botello (Puerto Rico), Spencer Brownstone (New York), Adora Calvo (Salamanca), Casas Riegner (Bogota), Marta Cervera (Madrid), Contemporary Fine Arts (Berlin), Carmen Correa Contemporáneo (Puerto Rico), DEAN PROJECT (New York), Espacio Líquido (Gijón), Henrique Faria Fine Art (New York), Gavlak (West Palm Beach), Moti Hasson (New York), Hardcore Art Contemporany (Miami), Caprice Horn (Berlin), Jacob Karpio (San José, CR), Diana Lowenstein Fine Arts (Miami), Federico Luger (Milan), Katharine Mulherin Contemporary Art (Toronto), Museum 52 (London), Pan American Art Projects (Miami), Raquel Ponce (Madrid), Walter Otero (Puerto Rico), Point of View (New York), PM Gallery (Toronto), Lyle O.
