"....Fiumano Clase, a London-based gallery with a second location in Gothenburg, Sweden, reported no sales, but gallery cofounder Andrés Clase said there was “strong interest” in works by the Hungarian painter Dénes Maróti, who, for one canvas on view at the fair, set blurry bathers against the still blues of water and sky. Clase said that he’s shown at the fair for the past four editions, and each time he’s done it with the same approach. “We tend to show the artists that are core to our gallery, rather than trying to pander to the market,” he says. Thus far, he said, the fair has been an excellent starting point for conversations. “We always like to meet new people who may become collectors—not immediately, but a little bit down the line.”
