The Visions of Catalonia Biennial begins its journey with participation in ARCO Madrid, one of the most important contemporary art fairs in Europe. The event will take place from March 4 to 8 at IFEMA.
The exhibition will showcase two of the most outstanding pieces from the 2025 edition of the Biennial: Catch Dreamer, a sculpture by artist Santi Moix in collaboration with craftsman Josep Mercader, and Mà connectada, an illustration by Eulàlia Valldosera. Both works exemplify how artisanal materials and techniques can enrich and enhance Catalan contemporary art, combining tradition, concept, technique and experimentation.
In addition to the pieces on display, the Biennial of Contemporary Catalan Crafts will be promoted through the official catalogue, offering visitors a complete view of the set of artistic proposals presented.
The participation in ARCO Madrid consolidates Visions of Catalonia as a key platform for projecting Catalan craftsmanship and contemporary art internationally and establishing dialogues with collectors, gallery owners and professionals in the sector.
ARCOmadrid is Spain’s International Contemporary Art Fair, which, since its inception, has established itself as one of the leading platforms in the contemporary art market. In 2026, the fair will celebrate its 45th edition, with ARCO2045: The future, for now, as the central theme: two spaces within the fair, curated by José Luis Blondet and Magalí Arriola, which will invite reflection on possible futures and tentative languages of art in order to glimpse new horizons.
