Awards and Arte Fiera Fund for Contemporary Art

Arte Fiera is happy to present the awards for the 2026 edition. There are seven main supporters of Italian contemporary art at Arte Fiera: the event’s main sponsors, private collectors, and one national award. Seven awards involving emerging and mid-career artists, as well as a multiplicity of subjects and languages reflecting contemporaneity.

The award ceremony will be held on Friday February 7 at 4 PM in the Book Talk area of the Services Center.

In addition to the seven awards at the fair, there is the Arte Fiera Fund, an important new acquisition fund of €100,000 financed by BolognaFiere and Cosmoprof.
