After commemorating its 25th anniversary in February 2006, the International Contemporary Art Fair of Madrid, ARCO, has consolidated its position as one of the world’s leading events for contemporary visual arts. Its international prestige, together with Madrid’s cultural appeal, turn the fair into an annual focus of attention for galleries, artists, art critics, curators, museum managers, experts and art experts worldwide. A large market platform with a repercussion borne out by the many sales it generates, as well as other figures registered: 200,000 visitors, 3000 accredited journalists, and over 4000 press clippings.

In 2007, ARCO begins a new phase, with a project combining continuity with the necessary innovation to face the demands of the contemporary art scene. A project inheriting an excellent reputation, and an enviable starting point from which to take on the new challenges opposed by the art market, and to responds to issues like the growth of collecting in Spain, the consolidation of ARCO as a marketplace, and the increasing competitiveness of international art fairs.
