The Hotel Warszawa Art Fair, now in its third edition, continues to establish itself as a significant event on the Polish art scene. Scheduled from September 7th to 8th, with a special preview on September 6th, the fair will be held in the historic Prudential building, now home to Hotel Warszawa. This year, the fair will expand to occupy more than one floor of the building, offering a unique blend of contemporary art and historic architecture. Visitors can expect a diverse array of exhibitions, including solo, duo, and trio presentations from various galleries. The fair is notable for its free admission, encouraging a wide range of attendees to engage with contemporary art. The program will also feature curatorial tours available in both Polish and English, enhancing the educational aspect. As Poland's first contemporary art fair hosted in a hotel, the Hotel Warszawa Art Fair draws inspiration from international precedents like the Gramercy International Art Fair in New York and the Felix Art Fair in Los Angeles. The event is a collaborative effort among several key figures in the Polish art world, including Gunia Nowik from Gunia Nowik Gallery, Marta Kołakowska from LETO, and Justyna Wesołowska and Marika Zamojska from Polana Institute, in partnership with the Likus Hotel and Restaurant Group.
This edition promises a vibrant selection of artists and galleries from Poland, Europe, and beyond. In addition to the exhibitions, the fair will feature art talks, side events, and other surprises, making it an inspirational experience for both art collectors and enthusiasts.
