The story
Port Art Fair in Saint Petersburg
Port Art Fair is an independent contemporary art fair held each spring at Sevkabel Port, a converted industrial waterfront complex in Saint Petersburg. Now in its fourth edition, it gathers dozens of galleries and independent artists from Moscow, Saint Petersburg and Russia's regions to show painting, sculpture, installation and digital media across four days.
Sevkabel Port occupies the site of a Soviet-era cable manufacturing plant on the western edge of Vasilyevsky Island, where Saint Petersburg's built environment gives way to open views across the Gulf of Finland.
