About the event
Born in London, the 1-54 fair (for the 54 countries of the African continent) has also set up in New York and Marrakech. The Moroccan edition brings together galleries from Africa, Europe and the Middle East around emerging and established artists each year.
Beyond the booths, the fair comes with a programme of talks and events in the city's galleries and museums. It is an excellent time to combine contemporary art, the medina, gardens and Marrakech's mild spring weather.
