The Mauritius International Art Fair (MIAF) 2022 held its opening at the Galerie du Genie in EDITH, Port Louis, (June 23 — 26), in the presence of the President of the Republic of Mauritius, Prithvirajsing Roopun, and a host of distinguished guests.
The theme of the second edition was ‘Bridge The Gap, Build The Future’. With the aim of positioning Mauritius as a cultural destination, MIAF 2022 was a rendezvous for international, local and regional artists, as well as those from the diaspora.
With the participation of nearly 50 local and 58 global artists, including more than 10 regional and five artists from the diaspora, the event presented the cultural synergy, creativity, diversity and symbiosis of the African continent and its neighbouring regions.
The works exhibited were paintings, pictures, installations as well as sculptures and photography; MIAF’s vision was to promote art in its multiple facets, while promoting cultural tourism.
