Salón ACME is an art platform created by artists for artists that provides visibility, momentum, and diffusion to emerging creators. Since 2013, it has held ten editions and positioned itself as one of the most authentic contemporary art events worldwide, fostering new audiences and consolidating a community of artists, curators, and collectors. Salon ACME features six main sections: Open Call, Bodega, State, Projects, Sala, and Patio.
