In a highly connected world, urban art has no borders.
An objective of District 13 - International Art Fair is to gather this international artistic impulse in a central place, Paris. This second edition will be even more selective than the first one, with 26 galeries from 10 countries, each representing emerging and world renowned artists. District 13 - International Art Fair offers connoisseurs and collectors alike a new moment in the global urban art market calendar.
Shepard Fairey, aka Obey, who gave a lecture last year at the fair, honours this edition of District 13 by having created an official poster for the event. This special creation, District 13 Lotus Woman, will be on sale at Drouot during the event only.
