In 2014, 68 galleries from 14 countries participated in OFFICIELLE, FIAC’s new event, and over 14,146 entries were recorded for the first edition of the fair.

OFFICIELLE’s second edition will take place from Wednesday, October 21 to Sunday, October 25 at the Docks – Cité de la Mode et du Design in Paris, with a vernissage being held on Tuesday, October 20.

OFFICIELLE will host approximately 70 French and international galleries specializing in contemporary and emerging art. The event will provide visitors with the opportunity to discover galleries who are relative newcomers to the international art scene exhibiting ambitious projects by artists whose work defines new and singular territories; galleries whose exhibition programs demonstrate a particular aptitude for decoding the language of contemporary creation and which possess a gift for revealing talents, both by accompanying promising artists of the emerging generation and by the recontextualization of under-recognized historic figures.

Galleries interested in participating in OFFICIELLE can access the application form online. Application forms will be available until Thursday, May 28.
