In honor of our winter activation in the Swiss Alps, MAZE and Particolare have commissioned composer-in-residence Tristan Seewer to create a string quartet based on traditional Swiss melodies. The premiere will take place at Gstaad's St. Niklaus-Kapelle on December 29 at 4pm, and will be followed by a guided tour of the sculpture Parcours along the famous Promenade, revealing works by artists such as François-Xavier Lalanne, Richard Hoeck, Loris Cecchini, Jenny Brosinski & Allan McCollum.

Partnering with JOYA, MAZE reinforced its commitment to fostering dialogue and showcasing talent across the arts. The fair's bespoke exhibition stands, designed by Christ & Gantenbein, combined elegance and functionality, while conferences with the École des Arts Joailliers explored jewelry's history and artistry. JOYA Monaco cements Monaco's role as a hub for luxury and cultural innovation.

Since 2003, LOOP Fair has been the first in its field exclusively dedicated to the discovery, promotion and acquisition of contemporary video art works.

‍

LOOP Fair strives to re-examine traditional art fair models and methods of presentation by taking into account both the changing attitudes of viewing and interacting with art, and the particularities of moving image practices. LOOP offers a unique viewing experience by presenting each film project in a room of a hotel, thus creating a setting that both focuses on the artists’ work and facilitates the particular attention required by this medium.

‍

LOOP creates a community among those in the concomitant fields of contemporary art and cinema, and establishes an occasion to promote and discuss artists’ video and film with a specialized audience.
