ART-O-RAMA, the first international art fair in the South of France, returns to La Friche de la Belle de Mai in the French port city of Marseilles for its ninth edition in 2015 from August 28-30 with a lineup of 20 galleries from around the world and an exciting support program. The opening weekend will be followed by a further two-week exhibition period for the general public.
Fair Director Jérôme Pantalacci said, “ART-O-RAMA makes the last weekend of August in Marseille the “end of summer” event for many contemporary art professionals and collectors. We are pleased to present an exclusive selection of 20 international galleries alongside the work of 5 fine arts graduate students of the region.”

Since it was launched in 2007, ART-O-RAMA has been developing a unique presentation format that considers each booth as an exhibition space that is defined according to the exhibitor’s curatorial project. Gallerists are given free-reign to present their works as they choose within a booth laid out according to their specifications.
This year’s fair coincides with the second edition of the Marseille Gallery Night on August 29, an event organised in collaboration with Marseilles Expos, a network of 34 contemporary art galleries. Fifteen venues will launch new shows for the event, including Frac Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur, [MAC], MuCEM, and Box (fonds M-ARCO), to name a few.
ART-O-RAMA 2015 will once again showcase a site-specific project by a specially selected artist in the Platform space. This year’s Platform project is by French conceptual artist Saâdane Afif who will present the latest evolution of “The Fountain Archives,” an ongoing collection of all the publications containing one of more reproductions of Marcel Duchamp’s iconic “Fountain.”
