In November 2017 Amalart brings one of its artists to Turkey for the first time. From 4 to 12 November the Tüyap Fair & Congress Center hosts the twenty-seventh edition of ARTIST, the Istanbul art fair, which brings together established and emerging galleries from Turkey, the Caucasus and the Black Sea, Russia, the Middle East, Europe, America and Asia.
There Amalart presents the canvases of Lee Feng, the Taiwanese artist it has followed since 2015, who had exhibited in Milan a few months earlier. Among the fair's grey-panelled stands, his large brightly coloured paintings, crossed by black gestures that recall calligraphy, open up to a new public, in a city that for centuries has served as a bridge between Europe and Asia.
For Amalart it is a step into a market and a context different from the Italian and Chinese ones, in the same year in which Lee Feng exhibits in Milan: a way of accompanying the artist towards new publics and collectors.
