SHOW OFF expands this year to 1 500m2 to accommodate galleries, artists, and the public in two luminous and elegant tents at the foot of the Grand Palais.

The first tent offers 800m2 of space, an additional 200m2 from SHOW OFF’s 2009 edition. Located opposite this tent, SHOW OFF offers this year a second tent with 700m2 of exhibition and animation space.

Once again, SHOW OFF will be located at the Port of Champs Elysées at the foot of the Grand Palais and the FIAC. The only art fair offshoot of the FIAC, SHOW OFF is not to be missed.

In its 5th year, SHOW OFF will feature solo show booths, with three sizes available: for emerging galleries – less than three years old ; medium booths at 18m2 ; and large booths at 24m2.

In 2010, SHOW OFF expands for the benefit of its participating galleries, artists, and the public at large :

• SHOW OFF’s unique focus on solo shows reinforces its identity as a fair in its own league

• New signage and an eye-catching layout set the fair apart for increased visibility

• SHOW OFF’s fair-trade pop-up restaurant will make it an instant « it » spot during Paris’s contemporary art week

• Transparent tents offer a stunning view of the Seine and the Eiffel Tower

• SHOW OFF VIP members will have exclusive access to the FIAC at Grand Palais and courtyard. A comprehensive VIP program (visits, evening events valet parking, etc.) will also be available.
