Puerto Rican Art Fair Looks East
September 11, 2009

The modestly sized Circa PR hopes to raise its profile this year.

SAN JUAN, Puerto Rico—The Circa PR art fair, now in its fifth year, has announced for its 2010 edition a new cooperation with Art Beijing: Each fair will export three booths to the other, each will invite groups of collectors from the other location, and each will feature panels and conferences on the other's regional culture.
Circa PR, which takes place at San Juan's Puerto Rico Convention Center, has also announced that it will move its 2010 show from April to January. The new schedule, from Jan. 29 through Feb. 1, is intended to raise the modest fair's profile by moving it closer to Art Basel Miami Beach, scheduled for Dec. 3–6 of this year.
