I visited Mexico’s contemporary art fair “Material Art Fair.”
The venue “Expo Reforma”
Material Art Fair is known for taking place at the same time as ZONAMACO, Mexico’s largest art fair, and 2024 marks its 10th edition.
I have introduced ZONAMACO in the article below, so please refer to it if you are interested.
Material’s venue is an event facility called Expo Reforma, spread across two floors.
The venue’s ceiling is not particularly high and the floors are not that spacious, so it does not have much of an open feel, but the participating galleries each presented distinctive exhibitions, which made touring the fair enjoyable.
I recorded a video, so please watch it if you’d like.
The booths of participating galleries were also on a smaller scale, and I could sense a distinctly Mexican tendency in the works.
Every piece was something I don’t usually get to see, making it a fascinating tour.
The galleries from Japan were Tomio Koyama Gallery and 4649 — two galleries in total.
