É dition S péciale - 5 ème année A u C arrousel du L ouvre Organizer’s Notes In this 5 th Edition of the « International Contem- porary Art Guide » we joint 34 artists who will pre- sent their works to a public of Art lovers, Gallery managers, collectors and architects. This guide main objective is to catalog the works of the ar- tists - selected, each year, by a panel of Contem- porary Art Experts – to make them known by a larger public, but also to protect theirs royalties. We are happy to notice that every year this publica- tion which is gathering useful information addres- sed to Visual Art lovers is managing to get an impor- tant space in the International Art Market. Just as the others, Visual Arts on itself represent some re- generative activities. It is a vehicle aiming to reach a none verbal level of perception and inciting us to reflect about our personal clarification. During this processes, we are invited to come across with several facets of our innermost being that, very often, are staying hidden in our conscience world. The real artist is always the common thread of eternal beauties and human being anguishes. His work has always been to pluck the most vibrating strings of his public. This publication is gathering artistes with some natio- nal and international career, getting those features and promoting their Art, aiming to realize meaning- ful creations with actual topics and approaching the problems that our world has currently to overcome. Each one of them gets a very personal esthetics and techniques and is using supports susceptible to improve the artistic and Contemporary Art. This exhibition will include: paintings, collages, design, photography, drawings, Sculptures in bronze, plastic or recycled paper and digital Art. Then, this union of creation and contemporaneity will promote some surprizing and unexpected chal- lenges and opportunities which will play a key role offering mystery, magic and mastery of freedom exercise. Art is one of the few fields of knowledge and creativity that continue to open us the doors on new universes that we still have to discover, to decipher and to reveal. I like to thanks all the staff who took part in the elaboration of this 5th Edition addressed to artist agents. Thanks also to our Honor Guest Zoravia Bettiol. I also like to acknowledge the writer and collector Mário Britto who, this year again, is doing us the honor to preface this Guide.
