INTERNATIONAL FAIR FOR EMERGING ARTISTS

80 artists from 20 countries present their paintings, sculptures, photography and art objects.

ART SHOW ZURICH invites artists to present their works directly and visitor can talk with them about these works. In the centrally located new culture mile of Zurich, inside the former historic foundry hall Puls 5, artists find a platform to show personally their latest works in stands which are laid out by themselves.

Emerging artists have increased in number and most galleries don’t want to take any more risk. This is why ART SHOW ZURICH has created an interdisciplinary meeting space between artists and visitors, with a selection across today’s actual art in a pleasant environment.
At ART SHOW ZURICH, you will find no professional art galleries, but emerging individual artists who shows their works directly to an interested public. ART SHOW ZURICH offers to a wide public original works for a private collection or to make an interior more attractive. The public discovers contemporaneous art as well in an abstract as in a non abstract form and get inspired by this alternative to an often hard art market.

Artists from:
Belgium, Bulgaria, Cuba, France, Germany, India, Italy, Japan, Kazakhstan, Macau, Netherlands, Romania, Russia, Switzerland, Slovakia, South Africa, South Korea, Ukraine, United Kingdom, USA.

ART SHOW ZURICH in Puls 5 is a modern project. Art exists mostly through the contact with the public and its integration in a social context. ART SHOW ZURICH offers a fresh approach to the international artist fairs. By showcasing international artists - among emerging and young artists - collectors will discover a selection across today’s actual art. ART SHOW ZURICH offers a unique environment attractive to passionate buyers.

ART SHOW ZURICH is centrally located in Zurich's former industrial quarter west of the Main Central Railway Station, now the Culture Mile, inside the historic foundry hall Puls 5. There artists find a platform to show personally their latest works and to demonstrate various processes of creation.

PRESS VOICES

The Artists Artfair ART SHOW ZURICH offers to the artists an alternative platform in the hard disputed galleries market. Without the representation through a gallery, a today’s artist has few possibilities to exhibit and sell: There is a lack of visibility, so as the international presence on important fairs. No gallerist interferes into his work only under the aspect of his market value. For such persistent artists, it exists now a new platform, a niche in this market, strong dominated by auction houses and galleries: the Artist Fair die ART SHOW ZURICH. This event in the historic foundry Puls 5 understand itself as an alternative to an often hard art market.

ART SHOW ZURICH : Fair with potential
The ART SHOW ZURICH is a courageous experiment. The fair is located in the trendy Puls 5, in the proximity of the noble scene for contemporary art ”Zürcher Kreis 5”. The exhibition doesn’t take place in the small places otherwise used for such exhibitions, but in the Mall, characterized in the daytime by a natural light.
