Paris Internationale will proudly celebrate its 10th edition this year, taking place from 16 to 20 October. The VIP Preview, followed by an opening, will be held on Tuesday 17 October (invitation only). Building upon its success from 2023, the fair will once again take over the Central Bergère, located at 17 Rue du Faubourg Poissonnière in the 9th arrondissement, thus paying tribute to the diversity of Paris’s architectural heritage.

This year, Paris Internationale has invited 69 galleries from 19 countries, celebrating the return of long-standing collaborators such as Chapter NY (New York), Derosia (New York), Empty Gallery (Honkong), greengrassi (London), KOW (Berlin), Martins&Montero, São Paulo/Brussels or Stereo (Warsaw), as well as the arrival of 25 newcomers, including Bel Ami (Los Angeles), Lo Brutto Stahl (Paris), Tomio Koyama (Tokyo), and Ulrik (New York), who will be exhibiting alongside the founding galleries.

Born from the utopian vision of creating a contemporary art fair on a human scale, where gathering, discovery, content, and a shared set of values are just as important as commercial success, Paris Internationale is an independent structure whose main goal is to promote contemporary art. The fair offers an alternative and much-needed model: a strong marketplace in which a cutting-edge selection of participants from all over the world - both commercial galleries and guest project spaces - come together in one rich cultural program. The fair offers a new aesthetic between the literary salon of the 18th century and a self-managed contemporary art fair.

All the selected galleries share a particular vision of their profession, one that goes beyond the purely commercial aspect. As cultural ambassadors for their regions, they are firmly rooted in their local communities, while at the same time working to promote the international reputation of the artists they represent. Paris Internationale encourages ambitious projects conceived in the style of an exhibition, enabling new artists of all generations to be discovered as well as forgotten figures to be rediscovered.

Paris Internationale offers projects that maintain a sense of the avant-garde not found in all fairs, thereby contributing to the vitality of the Parisian art scene and the city’s appeal to artists and the international art community as a whole.

This year marks the renewal of a rich public program designed to facilitate exchanges and conversations between all those involved in the art world. The program includes free non-profit spaces, guided tours with selected personalities from the art world, an exhibition featuring the work of CNAP-supported artists, and other events that will all be free and open to the general public.
