Polyptique

Polyptyque returns from August 30 to September 1, 2024 ! For this fifth edition, the Salon Polyptyque has reinvented itself, with an affirmed biennial rhythm, a wider selection of galleries, the investment of several locations and the introduction of a new prize : the Polyptyque artist’s book prize. The show will feature 9 galleries and 16 artists selected for the Polyptyque awards. Two cartes blanches offered by the Galiana-Wiart and Mécènes du Sud collections will be added to the selection, and two parallel exhibitions will forge links with the show.

Polyptyque creates resonances between a series of solo shows : the work of artists represented by internationally renowned galleries, an emerging regional and national scene, and works from private collections. The result is a veritable laboratory of form and thought.

Today, Marseille has established itself as the essential end-of-summer art event. With Art-o-Rama, Paréidolie, Polyptyque, as well as Gallery Night and Systema, the Rentrée de l’art contemporain 2024 brings together over a hundred French and international galleries, dozens of art centers and artist collectives, and thousands of professionals.

At the heart of this artistic effervescence, Polyptyque has offered a special place to photography since 2018. Original and convivial, the human-sized fair explores all the territories of contemporary photography, while fostering unique encounters between artists, gallery owners and institutional players in photography.
