The fair went annual last year and so the 2018 edition is the first to follow on immediately from last year’s predecessor. In light of this, the running time will be shorter, just under a week from Monday September 11 to Sunday September 17.
The exhibitor list detailed here numbers 95 dealers with a two-thirds split between France and other, mostly European, countries.
The majority are making a return visit but among the handful of newcomers are Vacheron Constantin; Montres de Witt and Montres Journe, all from Geneva and all showing watches; antiquities specialist Jean David Cahn, also from Switzerland and Eric Poulain from Paris with Asian art; and the Galerie Linossier from Paris with antique furniture and works of art.
Vetting Procedures
New selection and strict vetting standards and datelines have also been unveiled for the latest edition as part of a revision of the works admissions committee or CAO aimed at guaranteeing its objectivity and independence.
These include that neither the President nor any elected representatives of the SNA can intervene in the decisions of the CAO and that the committee will not include exhibitors in the Biennale.
Other changes are that an appeal for CAO decisions is limited to three objects per exhibitor and the introduction of a quality requirement for unique pieces (no series production pieces) and for works created before 2000.
The additional attraction of a loan exhibition at the Biennale will be provided this year by works from the Barbier-Muller family of collectors, encompassing the different passions of four generations – tribal art, numismatics, 18th century paintings, Samurai art, contemporary art and 17th and 18th century books.
