SUPER[M]ART[KET] project is inserted the idea of creating a kind of simulacrum of the
global art market where active participants are included unprejudiced. The simulacrum is formed by the selection
of works from those artists
who have accepted the invitation, which was through an open call. The exhibition of selected
works will create mini-art market model
according to the criteria of the
expert jury. The 2015 edition
of contempoLAB /the educational platform created under the frame of the CONTEMPO
festival since 2010/ is in the context of this research and it was programmed as a
result of the study of the attitudes of local artistic communities and the critical need for knowledge
about successful presentationat
the global art stages.

their career and for
established ones who want to develop their presentation skills, for gallerists, curators, art dealers, cultural
operators and art students. During discussions best practices will be examined in the relationship artist - curator /
gallerist / dealer – collector:
the possibilities and the tools for emerging artists to
