About MIA Photo Fair

MIA Photo Fair is the most important Italian fair dedicated to art photography. Every year, in the Tortona district of Milan, Italian and international galleries present the best of author photography, from analog to digital to the latest experiments with artificial intelligence. In the Superstudio Più spaces, collectors, enthusiasts, and the curious can discover works, meet artists, and grasp the trends of contemporary photographic language.

Art photography takes center stage

MIA Photo Fair is the benchmark event for art photography in Italy. The fair is held in Milan (Lombardy) in the spaces of Superstudio Più (via Tortona 27), in the heart of the Tortona Design District, one of the city's most vibrant areas for art and creativity. Each edition brings together Italian and international galleries that present photographic works by authors, in a journey that spans genres, eras, and languages.

From analog to artificial intelligence

The fair showcases the evolution of the photographic medium in all its forms: from analog photography to digital post-production, up to applications of artificial intelligence. Alongside the gallery stands, MIA offers special projects, thematic exhibitions, and in-depth discussions, providing a comprehensive overview of contemporary photographic language trends.

A meeting point for the market

MIA Photo Fair is also an important platform for the photography market, frequented by collectors, curators, and industry professionals, as well as an enthusiastic public. The presence of numerous international galleries and first-time participants makes the fair a dynamic observatory, capable of capturing emerging voices and confirming Milan as the Italian capital of art photography.
