MIRAGES LXXIX
This month Platforms Project – Independent Art Fair is celebrating its 13th anniversary. The Platforms Project is an institution that supports artists, in an art fair where they themselves communicate and present their work, through collaboration and synergy. What excites, not only the art critics and journalists, but also the art lovers and all the other visitors, is the freshness and vitality of the artworks and the participation of artists from more and more countries every year.
This year Platforms Project 2025 will be presented in the building of the Tobacco Factory with workshops, performances, talks and presentations by the participating groups. Tobacco Factory, has been linked to major art exhibitions and has been transformed into a contemporary cultural and social space open to all, a centre for meeting and exchanging ideas. Platforms Project 2025 will feature 64 art platforms with more than 900 artists, expanding the global network built and communicated over the past twelve years.
The mission of Platforms Project is to serve as a core hub for the creation and documentation of pioneering trends in contemporary art, as well as for fostering relationships between platforms and artistic groups. Over the past thirteen years, Platforms Project has built a global network of independent art collectives and spaces, all in direct communication with one another.
In parallel with the Platforms Project 2025 exhibition, a series of conferences, presentations, performances, workshops, and guided tours will take place. Platforms Project is not an impersonal event but a vibrant artistic community full of energy, offering both time and space for the presentation of alternative and independent art.
For all the above we will inform you in a detailed article.
We will all be there (9-12/10/25) and we will be waiting for you!
