Miart 2023 Closes: Italian Gallerists Report Mixed Sales and Cannibalization by Salone del Mobile
Miart 2023 concluded on April 16, 2023, amidst concerns of being overshadowed by Salone del Mobile and Milan Art Week. While gallerists deemed the fair beneficial for art with immediate appeal, collectors exhibited caution regarding mid-to-high price ranges, aligning more with Art Basel trends. Sales were inconsistent, particularly affecting emerging galleries. Galleria Franco Noero successfully sold out works by Jim Lambie (£20,000–75,000). First-time exhibitor Crèvecœur showcased pieces by Julien Carreyn and others. Cadogan Gallery recorded a sale of a Terrell James work (€7,500–25,000). Galleria Massimo Minini and Francesca Minini noted sales between €2,000 and €40,000, while Mazzoleni featured various artists. Dep Art Gallery concentrated on Valerio Adami and Salvo (€20,000–420,000), with other galleries experiencing diverse sales across various price points.
