Toronto - From seasoned collectors and first-time art buyers, to gallery dealers and interior designers, visitors can explore and discover works of art from over 250 top contemporary artists from Canada and abroad.

The Artist Project celebrates its 7th year with another exciting show from February 20 to 23, 2014 at the Better Living Centre, Exhibition Place, Toronto. This is a unique opportunity to meet and buy art directly from artists at Toronto’s most celebrated contemporary art fair. It's basically a trade show for art, which makes the venue look way better than any other event there. First night usually is packed, as there are plenty of food and beverage sponsors onsite, as well as a variety performances. The unique thing about this exhibition is that it features emerging artists, typically meaning the works are affordable. There will be some 5,000 original pieces available, meaning once they're gone, they're gone. Works include painting, photography, graphic design, sculpture, and many other mediums. This year's opening night theme is “SET SAIL”, a nod to the retro nautical look of the 1940’s. The Emerging Artists Competition (UNTAGGED) allows 20 student artists to showcase their work for free. Attendees can then vote for their favourite, with the winner getting a free booth next year. Each entrant must create a work of art based on their interpretation of the theme. Those who vote get a chance to set sail on a Celebrity Cruise. As well, to celebrate the 7th year of the fair, 7 photographers used the SONY A7 to create works that will be displayed in an exhibition of 7 LCD panels.
