Show Off is open: 28 galleries of strictly contemporary art, from eight different countries. Apart from the French ones, galleries from Germany, Belgium, Canada, Cuba, Italy, the USA and Switzerland, with their 200 artists. All practices are represented: painting, photography, sculpture, video and new technologies.
