At
ArtRio, there is something for everyone. Given that works start at R$5,000, young collectors with limited budgets or mature collectors on the look out for new talents will have an array of choices. And we need not to say that those on an unlimited budget can certainly take home some masterpieces of Modern and Contemporary Art. To help, we've put together a wish list below for every taste, age, trend, and budget. And, as we mentioned previously, even if you ain't got a dime, it's worth visiting the fair to see these works from up close:
