PREVIEW BERLIN – THE EMERGING ART FAIR 29.09-03.10

The newest of Berlin’s art fairs, Preview Berlin was a resounding success during its inaugural run in 2005. With more than 9000 enthusiastic visitors and strong support from the artistic community, Preview Berlin has positioned itself as an important event on the international art fair circuit.

The Idea

Preview Berlin was launched in 2005 as a joint effort by four galleries in Berlin - Förderkoje®, Galerie Jarmuschek und Partner, Galerie Kuttner Siebert and loop - raum für aktuelle kunst. Administered by a highly professional organisation, Preview Berlin offers low-priced booth space for the introduction and promotion of high quality, emerging contemporary art. This gives art collectors, art lovers and art professionals the opportunity to view and discover an extensive range of exciting new work from around the world gathered in one location. The format is of great benefit not only to buyers, collectors and aficionados, but also to the participating galleries and their artists.
Preview Berlin coincides with the ART FORUM Berlin as an enrichment of the already established art fair market.

The Profile

Preview Berlin is a platform from which a new generation of galleries and project spaces can introduce and promote the work of their artistic prodigies. The primary focus is on the exciting work of emerging artists from the explosive art scene in Berlin, as well as from other international hotbeds of artistic production. Exhibitors are selected by a committee based on the recommendations of galleries, curators and other art professionals whose expertise and networks ensure that Preview Berlin plays host to a multifaceted spectrum of original emerging contemporary art.
