BIENNIALS, ART SHOWS AND ART FAIRS FROM AROUND THE WORLD
Every year across the world artists, galleries, museums and arts organizations provide us with a wealth of opportunities to view the latest and best in contemporary art. In the following pages we provide information on the exhibitions, art shows and art fairs provided by these organizations. We have chosen to break the events into three different categories as we view these events as separate and distinct types of exhibitions.

BIENNIALS
Major arts events usually created and managed by major arts organizations or cities around the world. Many Biennials are thematic in nature and under the direction of a selected curator or group of curators. The artwork at biennials typically consists of new or thematic works from a variety of artists.

NATIONAL & INTERNATIONAL ART SHOWS
These shows are typically made up of a number of art galleries from around the world and tend to focus on a particular art genre such as contemporary art, fine arts, crafts, sculpture, glass, photography, etc. The number of participating galleries can number from as few as fifty to over several hundred.

U.S. COMMUNITY ART SHOWS & FAIRS
These fairs are held from the spring through the fall across the U.S. and feature individual artists. Most shows focus on local artists but the larger and more established shows will feature regional artists and craftspeople as well.
