The NICE ART EXPO returns for its second edition from April 14 to 16. For 3 days, around 200 artists will exhibit their works at the Palais des Expositions.
From painting to sculpture, including photography, it is contemporary art in all its forms that will be honored. On over 4,000 m2, international artists, renowned galleries, and emerging artists will be showcased.
You can also find artists such as Jeff Koons, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Viktor Fresco, Jean-Marc Calvet, Vincent Duchene, Céline De La Chapelle, Julie Gazounaud, Véga Vénusie, and don’t forget Laurence JENK, the patron of the 2023 edition.
This beautiful project was born thanks to two twenty-five-year-olds from Nice, Dana Ponthier and Thomas Lemaire, who wanted, through this contemporary art fair, to make art accessible to all.
When the idea came to us to create an international art fair, our first thought was to restore Nice to its full cultural splendor, to enable it once again to host artists from around the world and offer an incredible variety of works for all audiences!
