Thank you to the Studio Ricci Oddi Massoni in Piacenza for its generous donation.
The first edition of the Marrakech Art Fair will be held from 8 to 11 October 2010 (with a preview on 8 October) at the Es Saadi Palace.
Forty international art galleries are pleased to invite professionals and passionate art collectors to present their recent discoveries during a 4-day event.
Modern art and contemporary art will be high on the agenda. Works of art and creations from the 20th and 21st centuries.
…where will it end, we ask ourselves?
Just three to four years ago Marrakech airport had one terminal. Now it has a fabulous main terminal building which dwarfs the original.
And now there’s a tender out for the construction of a third one – along with a second terminal at Fez!
Apparently by 2013 Marrakech will be able to handle 10 million passengers a year – more than double its current capacity.
Of course if you’re heading to Essaouira you can also use Agadir – or our local airport…still waiting for routes other than Paris/Casablanca!
