IT IS REASSURING to both public and private collectors and the wider commercial art world that BRAFA, a museum quality event, is returning to its New Year position in the fair calendar. After the success of 2022, the 68th edition will again occupy two capacious halls at Brussels Expo. With 130 exhibitors from all over the world, this truly international event will showcase a diverse range of objects dating from prehistory to modern times. This year BRAFA has chosen Art Nouveau as its thematic focus. The 2023 iteration of the fair will celebrate the art movement with a talks programme, special events and selected dealer displays; even the design of the fair will pay homage to this heritage.
