Between setbacks and uncertain collectors, how did the miart 2026 fair go for the galleries?
Tra intoppi di percorso e collezionisti incerti, come è andata la fiera miart 2026 per le gallerie?
The 2026 edition of the miart fair in Milan faced significant logistical challenges following its move to the South Wing of the Allianz MiCo. While the 'Emergent' section thrived with ample space and natural light, the 'Established' and 'Anthology' sections suffered from a confusing multi-level layout, poor signage, and oppressive lighting. Many galleries, including Alfonso Artiaco, reported that the lack of clear directions turned high-quality exhibition spaces into "cathedrals in the desert," making it difficult for collectors to locate booths.
