RE:Rotterdam – 08.02.2012 – 12.02.2012 – De Boompjes 60-68 Rotterdam
On the 8th of February the second contemporary art fair Re:Rotterdam will commence. This time it has a much larger space in which to exhibit. This year art events will be presented over 10,000 m2 in a ten-storey empty office blockĀ in a prime location on the Maas in Rotterdam. Because of the exhibition the emptiness of the office block will be seen in another light while the traffic through the block will bring the block to life. More than a hundred and twenty artists, galleries and initiatives will be showing their work.
Re: Rotterdam is exceptional in that itĀ provides a new context for artists to show their work. Certainly in a period when art subsidies are being removed it is important that new approaches are adopted to the presentation of work in the art market. Re Rotterdam offers galleries and artists without financial support the rich opportunity to exhibit and sell work to a large and interested public.
This event will be held simultaneously to ArtRotterdam, just around the corner at the Boompjes 60-68 in Rotterdam. The event is organized by Galerie10 their affiliated galleries, network, artists, artist initiatives and sponsors, all on a non-profit basis.
