The 37th edition of FIAC will take place at the Grand Palais and the Cour Carrée du Louvre on October 21st to 24th, 2010.
The 37th edition of FIAC will be held from 21st to 24th October 2010 at the Grand Palais, the Cour
Carrée du Louvre and the Jardin des Tuileries, outstanding sites that are emblematic of Paris, imbued with its history and cultural life. Because of the high standards it sets and constantly renews and the synergies it has developed with the major Parisian institutions, FIAC occupies a position as one of the not-to-be-missed international events relating to artistic creativity.
Devised in a spirit of continuity, FIAC confirms the founding principles of its identity: its generalist
vocation that leads it to offer a balanced panorama of modern art, contemporary art and up-andcoming creativity; its openness to the diversity of artistic practices, as evidenced by the outdoor projects in the Jardin des Tuileries, its programme of performances, or indeed the initial showing this year of a cycle of artists’ films; and lastly its concern for constantly reinforced quality and artistic selectivity. FIAC 2010 will bring together 194 galleries of modern and contemporary art, coming from 24 countries. France accounts for 73 galleries, i.e. 38%, Germany comes next with 22 galleries, then the United States with 22 galleries, Italy with 14, Belgium with 11, and Switzerland with 10. Countries represented for the first time are Japan, Mexico, Korea and Ireland. 63 galleries are exhibiting for the first time or have returned to FIAC in 2010.
