The 9th edition of Art Madrid will take place at a new venue, the Crystal Gallery in the Cibeles Palace, former Communications Palace, now part of the building CentroCentro Cibeles Culture and Citizenship.
The space, 2800 m2, has an unbeatable location at the heart of artistic Madrid and very close to the Prado, the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum and the Reina Sofia Museum. It is also one of the first examples of modernist architecture built in Madrid.
An organically shaped glass dome closes the entire gallery, making it a very bright and open space, which will host about fifty galleries.
On this occasion, the architect Alberto Martín de Lucio will be responsible for articulating and shaping the exhibition space, designing the plan and stands.
