Artissima 2017, International Fair of contemporary art in Turin

The 24th edition of Artissima will be held in Turin from November 3 to 5 at the Oval, Lingotto Fiere.

Thanks to the partnership between Artissima and UniCredit, the bank will once again serve as the main partner of this important event, which ranks among the most highly anticipated initiatives on the international art circuit.

As in years' past, UniCredit will welcome visitors to its booth. There, a carefully curated selection of contemporary drawings and other works from the UniCredit Art Collection will be exhibited. For the third year running, UniCredit will also offer - free of charge - its independent art advisory service to interested parties.

Art collectors and fairgoers alike will have the opportunity to consult UniCredit specialists and receive artistic, technical legal and financial advice and, for the first time, guidance on how art collectors can obtain funding.

UniCredit has broad experience in managing the art assets of its clients. Our experts will be available to all art enthusiasts and customers, offering complete, innovative and increasingly customized asset management solutions that can improve more clients' access to collections.

The 24th edition of Artissima features many new innovations. In particular, the fair has created a new section called Disegni (fine art drawing) to augment the traditional sections that have characterized Artissima in these years. The Disegni section aims to promote this new genre of art collecting, which has become increasingly attractive to more and more art collectors.

The fair will also present two very interesting projects. Deposito d'Arte Italiana Presente, a new cultural exhibition at Artissima, will focus on Italian art from 1994 to the present, while a new digital platform will replace the traditional catalogue of the fair. This platform will transform the catalogue into a valuable and innovative virtual showcase for gallerists, as its content can be continually updated.

Artissima represents an important opportunity for UniCredit to support culture and those cultural activities that are staged by its communities and territories.
