RASSEGNA MIART 2019

03/04/2019 web web foglio sheet 2/2 T 16/05/19, 12*29 Big-hitters join Miart for first time | The Art Newspaper Pagina 2 di 3 https://www.theartnewspaper.com/preview/big-hitters-join-miart-for-first-time participate—but you can’t bring them in unless there is also a real motivation for them to take part,” says Alessandro Rabottini, the fair’s artistic director, who believes the “growing international appeal of Milan” has helped provide this motivation. The fair opens only a month before the Venice Biennale—another draw that Thaddaeus Ropac says made this year “an opportune moment” to participate, since “a number of our artists will be presented in exhibitions at Italian institutions as well as at the Biennale”. Among the works on Ropac’s stand will be three collages by Adrian Ghenie, who will have his first solo exhibition in Italy this year at Palazzo Cini in Venice (opening on 19 April), and a painting by Lee Bul who has been selected by Ralph Rugoff for his exhibition at the Biennale. Institutional shows also influenced Hauser & Wirth’s decision to exhibit at its first Italian fair. “Coinciding with Miart, five of our artists have been invited to present institutional exhibitions in Milan which, combined with the fair, gave us a compelling reason to participate,” says Stefano Rabolli Pansera, a director. The gallery will show a solo presentation of Paul Mc ​ - Carthy at the fair—the artist’s last solo show in the city was at the Fondazione Trussardi in 2010. • Miart, Fiera Milano City, Milan, 5-7 April Appeared in The Art Newspaper, More Preview Topics Italy Milan Miart 311 April 2019 You have viewed 2 out of 3 articles t Register to increase your limit or sign in if you've already registered or are a subscriber By using The Art Newspaper website you agree to the use of cookie as described in our Cookie Policy.
