(Entering art fair in Singapore would cost about RM 80; entering art fair in Hong Kong would cost about RM 135)
The Malaysia bandwagon, the largest delegation, have a lot of reputable exhibitors as well as beginners from my art scene. These galleries will represent a lot more than 100 local artists, an excellent mixture of pioneer artists, superstars, established and emerging young artists. The Malaysian works usually receive well response and good remarks from the visitors. With a strong pool of local collectors specifically collecting Malaysian Art, it can be expected the sales of Malaysian Art could be excellent.

There will also be an Embassy Zone, which sees participation from 13 Embassies, i.e. Argentine, Belgium, Brazil, Colombia, Cuba, France, Iran, Italy, Mexico, Mongolia, Philippines, Romania, Russia (debut appearance). Each Embassy proudly represents one selected solo artist from its country.
In addition, there is the National Exhibition of China, presented from the Ministry of Culture China, that showcases Three or four Chinese contemporary ink artists, at a huge exhibition division of 420 sqm. However, the typical China Pavilion will shrink down in proportions, having 5 different groups participating only, in order that the China representation isn’t too overwhelming.
