The Fusion Art Gallery continued its international expansion in 2025 with Monaco Week of Art X2, a two-week art takeover in Monaco combining contemporary exhibitions, artist visibility, collector meetings and daily cultural events.

Held from 23 June to 7 July 2025 at Espace 22 Gallery, 24 Bd d’Italie, Monaco, the project marked another step in The Fusion Art Gallery’s mission to bring artists beyond the traditional gallery wall and into international cultural destinations.

The concept was built around 2 weeks and 2 exhibitions.

The first week, UNFILTERED: The Art of Bold Expression, presented an unapologetic and expressive exhibition by Johan Grundin and Vicky-May Giraud. The second week, ELEVATED: The Art of Prestige, expanded the format into a curated group exhibition, bringing selected artists into a high-end Monaco setting during one of the most prestigious cultural moments of the summer.

From Marbella to Monaco

The Monaco project grew from The Fusion Art Gallery’s base in Marbella and its wider international artist network. After building strong activity on the Costa del Sol through exhibitions, private art events and the Art House concept at Villa El Martinete, the gallery brought its model to Monaco.

The idea was simple: artists need more than local exposure. They need access to international rooms, new audiences, stronger positioning and moments that help build their story.

Monaco offered the right setting for that next step. Known for its connection to luxury, culture, collectors and international networks, the city became a natural extension of the gallery’s work between Marbella, Málaga and the wider European art scene.

More than an exhibition

Monaco Week of Art X2 was not created as a standard exhibition. It was designed as a platform experience.

The Fusion Art Gallery combined physical exhibition, artist presentation, collector engagement, media visibility and live cultural programming. The goal was not only to show art in Monaco, but to create a stronger international context around the artists involved.

For TFAG, this is the difference from a traditional gallery model. The exhibition is not the endpoint. It is the launch moment.

Artists are presented, documented, promoted and connected to a wider story before, during and after the show.

Building our own international art week

With Monaco Week of Art X2, The Fusion Art Gallery began shaping its own version of an art week format: smaller, more direct, more artist-focused and built around real visibility.

Instead of waiting for artists to be invited into existing systems, TFAG created its own international platform and brought artists with it.

That approach has become central to the gallery’s wider direction: building bridges between artists, collectors, media, events and international destinations.
