The (e)merge art fair celebrates galleries, artists, and the creative process with an an energetic environment of collaboration and discovery.
The 2012 Fair will take place October 4 – 7 at the Capitol Skyline Hotel in Washington, DC within blocks of the U.S. Capitol Building and several of the nation’s leading museums.
(e)merge will present over 80 international exhibitors in two platforms.
The GALLERY PLATFORM features galleries and nonprofit art spaces in Hotel rooms on designated floors and the ARTIST PLATFORM will feature a vetted selection of works in a variety of media by unrepresented artists throughout the Hotel's public areas and grounds.
The (e)merge educational platform will include lectures, panel discussions, and tours given by innovative authorities in contemporary art, including collectors, curators, critics, and artists.
The affluent DC region is now experiencing a groundswell of creative energy in its galleries, museums, non-profit spaces and artist communities. The objective of (e)merge is to internationalize and fuel this vitality as it coalesces into a vibrant new center for artistic experimentation, cultural exchange, and curatorial discovery.
