Further increasing the fair's value, BEX, the main producer of the event, connects with local ONGs to boost educational and recreational activities that give children and communities the opportunity to enhance their lives through art and creativity.

For five days in early september, owning art in Rio de Janeiro becomes a very inexpensive luxury - thanks to Alexandre Murucci, who started the feira artigo rio and whose goal is to democratize art.

This particular event sets a simple rule for exhibitioners - 80% of their pieces must be priced between 500 and  20,000 reals - making modern art pieces truly affordable by most.

International and local critics, as well as collectors, are happy to join at this 5-day fest of affordable art.
