About Us

Since 2016, T.O.E. has been developing platforms dedicated to contemporary art, creating
connections among artists, galleries, publishers, collectors, curators, and other art professionals.
Launched alongside the first edition of Lucca Art Fair, the project has evolved over the years into a
broader cultural ecosystem, bringing together art fairs, independent publishing, and initiatives
devoted to contemporary culture.

T.O.E. was founded to create events that engage with the territories that host them, enhancing their
identity, history, and cultural networks while maintaining an international and contemporary
outlook. Each project developed by T.O.E. is conceived as a platform for encounter and dialogue,
where the art market, curatorial research, and experimentation coexist.

Over the years, T.O.E. has strengthened its presence within the Italian art scene through initiatives
such as Cremona Art Fair, Lucca Art Fair, and Livorno Art Book Fair, developing events that focus
not only on contemporary art but also on the dialogue between different disciplines, from
publishing to music, cinema, and photography.

With the Cremona Art Fair, T.O.E. has established one of the most dynamic emerging events on the
Italian art fair scene, creating a format that brings together established galleries, curatorial projects,
and new generations of collectors. Lucca Art Fair, meanwhile, continues to grow as an event
dedicated to the dialogue between contemporary art and historical heritage, set within the unique
cultural landscape of Tuscany.

In 2026, T.O.E. will also launch Livorno Art Book Fair, a project entirely dedicated to independent
publishing, artists’ books, zines, and experimental print, conceived as an open platform for
contemporary publishing practices and the cross-pollination between visual arts and publishing.
Today, T.O.E. operates as a cultural network that brings together events, digital platforms and
annual initiatives under a shared vision: to promote contemporary art through accessible, curated
formats that are deeply connected to local territories and creative communities.

More than simply art fairs, T.O.E. projects are conceived as spaces for experience, connection, and
discovery, capable of creating new relationships between contemporary culture, the public, and the
international art market.
