After a remarkable edition in 2023, the fair confirms the dynamism and attractiveness of the drawing and works on paper market in Europe. The fair offers visitors an exceptional discovery of drawing through the centuries.

This year, Art on Paper will welcome some 50 Belgian and international galleries, and will further accentuate its openness to modern and ancient art galleries alongside contemporary artistic proposals.

Art on Paper confirms the appeal of its unique formula, with galleries including A&R Fleury (Paris), Thomas Deprez Fine Arts (Brussels), Galerie de la Beraudière (Bruxelles, Genève) and Patrick Lancz (Brussels) taking part.

On the international front, the Almine Rech gallery, present in eight countries worldwide, three Asian galleries (two Korean and one Japanese) and an American gallery (Keijsers Koning, Dallas – US) are among the participating galleries. Asian artists will also enjoy remarkable visibility in the fair of this year. To date, more than 10 artists’ solo shows are already scheduled (Kim Beomjoong – Yeemock Gallery, Valentin van der Meulen – Strouk Gallery, Fumie Onuki – Kitai Gallery, …)
