Come sarà la decima edizione fiera Art Monte-Carlo nel Principato di Monaco
Art Monte-Carlo, the boutique art fair in the Principality of Monaco, celebrates its tenth edition from April 29 to May 1, 2026 (preview April 28), under the High Patronage of H.S.H. Prince Albert II. The fair will host 26 international galleries of modern and contemporary art at the Grimaldi Forum, moving to new spring dates and coinciding with the Monaco Art Week (April 27–May 1). Newcomers include Italian gallery Secci, Mitterrand from Paris, A&R Fleury, Cecilia Hillström Gallery, Fabienne Levy, Giovanni Martino Projects, Lee & Bae, Ritsch-Fisch Galerie, and Monegasque galleries Hartford Fine Art – Lampronti Gallery and M.F. Toninelli Art Moderne. Returning exhibitors include Almine Rech, Cortesi, Galleria Continua, Suzanne Tarasieve, Semiose, Van de Weghe, Voena, and Wilde. A curated section features a collective exhibition titled "Earthly Delights," curated by Stefano Rabolli Pansera and inspired by Luis Buñuel, centered on a functioning bar as a conceptual and physical space. The fair also includes a public program and talks with figures such as photographer Juergen Teller, auctioneer Simon de Pury, and collector Batia Ofer, and has moved under the influence of Informa Prestige, the luxury division of events company Informa.
This anniversary edition matters because it marks a decade of Art Monte-Carlo's evolution as a boutique fair that balances commercial objectives with curated, conceptually driven exhibitions. The shift to spring dates and alignment with Monaco Art Week strengthens the fair's position within the European art calendar, while the curated section "Earthly Delights" demonstrates how art fairs can integrate thematic, non-commercial projects that engage with broader cultural and philosophical ideas. The involvement of high-profile collectors, auctioneers, and the luxury events group Informa Prestige signals the fair's growing prestige and its role in connecting the art market with the luxury sector in Monaco.
