Affordable Art Fair is an international and contemporary art fair held in numerous countries all over the world. First launched in 1999 in London Battersea, it has since conquered the world and has now two editions in Asia. Indeed, in addition to Affordable Art Fair Hong Kong, there is Affordable Art Fair Singapore that takes place in November. There, visitors will find art exhibits, workshops and parties, as well as delicious food at the Gastro Park. Affordable Art Fair offers a new vision of art markets, with low prices, artworks from emerging artists and many activities to accompany the fair itself. As a matter of fact, the fair has become a place both for art lovers and seasoned buyers.
