Monaco Art Week is returning for its fourth edition this month with a huge variety of fine art, objet d’art, jewellery, sculpture, and mixed media pieces on show at locations all over the Principality. 

The timing of Monaco Art Week could not be any more perfect. Tying directly into the artmonte-carlo fair, as well as a great number of exhibits all over the Côte d’Azur this summer, the Art Week festivities are an excellent addition to an already exciting season for art lovers.

The event was created to offer clientele opportunities to discover more through an organised week where participating galleries and auction houses showcase their pieces from La Condamine to Larvotto via Monte-Carlo.

Visitors will find a selection of art from different periods, including gorgeous Renaissance masterpieces at Moretti Fine Art, transgressive works by Paul McCarthy at Hauser & Wirth, design and figurative art at Bastian Gallery in the magnificent Monaco villa of Lenzwerk Monaco, and wooden sculptures carved from centuries old olive trees by Pablo Atchugarry at Galerie Adriano Ribolzi.

 Opera Gallery is hosting the Monaco Masters Show featuring the best of the old and new, there will be paintings from the Apocalypse collection by Franco-German artist Eric Massholder, and SmartVerum’s innovative project that combines the world of fine and digital art will be on show at Kamil Art Gallery.

 Bel’Art Fine Art is hosting photographic collections by French environmentalist Yann Arthus-Bertrand, works by English artist Adam Bricusse will be highlighted at G&M Design, and “analytical paintings” by Paolo Masi will be on display at NM Contemporary in a collaboration with Florentine art gallery Fritelli.

Meanwhile, modern and contemporary jewellery and luxe collectables will go under the gavel at Sotheby’s new auction house, and modern masters such as Pablo Picasso and contemporary artists including Hilary Pecis and Shara Hughes are part of The Great Indoors are being presented by Christie’s auction house.

Not all the beauty remains behind closed doors. Modern sculptures will also be on display under the sun for Artcurial’s modern sculpture sale, in a partnership with Monte-Carlo SBM.

Reflecting on current trends, Musée Collection des Arts, CADAF, Magdalena M. Gabriel and MetaVRse, will host ‘The Web 3.0: Art Talks’ – an insider look at collecting, curating, and investing in digital art and NFTs, together with an exhibition of Josephine and Napoleon Bonaparte’s most intimate art.
