Miart, Milan's international modern and contemporary art fair, is marking its 30th anniversary with significant changes for its 2026 edition. The fair is moving to a new venue, the South Wing at Allianz MiCo designed by Mario Bellini Architects, and adopting a more compact, three-floor layout designed to foster cross-presentation and dialogue. It has also announced a new theme, "New Directions," inspired by the jazz legacies of John Coltrane and Miles Davis, and a fresh graphic identity from design studio Leftloft.
The Frieze New York art fair will return to the Shed in Manhattan for its sixth edition this May, featuring 67 galleries. This marks the first edition since the fair's parent company was acquired by Ari Emanuel's Mari. The event will coincide with several other New York art fairs and major spring auctions, creating a competitive landscape for collectors' attention as it follows closely on the heels of the 2026 Venice Biennale opening.
