Why it is here

Paris is a longstanding meeting place for Asian modernism, diasporic practice, fashion and collecting. The fair offers a concentrated view of how those histories are priced and presented inside a European capital whose museums and private galleries provide the deeper context.

Plan it well

Use the Grand Palais as one fixed block rather than the centre of every day. Build separate Right Bank and Left Bank routes, and reserve museum exhibitions before fair-week visitors compress availability.

Preview days take place on 21 and 22 October, followed by a public vernissage on 22 October.
