TEFAF sent out this press release calling for applications to their Showcase program. The deadline is in a month. Interested dealers should got to Tefaf.com to apply.

TEFAF Showcase provides talented younger dealers with an important opportunity to exhibit at TEFAF Maastricht, the world’s most influential art and antiques fair.  Candidates are invited to apply to take part in TEFAF Showcase at the 24th  edition of the Fair, which will take place from March 18 to 27, 2011 in the MECC (Maastricht Exhibition and Congress Centre) in the south of the Netherlands.

TEFAF Showcase was started three years ago to give recently established galleries the opportunity to participate in TEFAF (The European Fine Art Fair) on a one-off basis and to gain experience of being part of an international fine art event. The pre-eminence of TEFAF among international art fairs has led to a long waiting list for potential exhibitors and TEFAF Showcase enables some of those keen to take part to do so for one year. It also introduces visitors to the Fair to some of the most interesting emerging galleries from around the world.
