What is TEAF?
TEFAF – The European Fine Art Foundation – is a non-profit organization that champions expert craftsmanship and diversity within the art world. Founded in 1988 on the initiative of eight gallery owners, it is now managed by an executive committee of seven art dealers supported by the 15 members of the board of directors and an advisory committee of 28 members mainly active in the art trade. art.
The foundation’s flagship event, TEFAF Maastricht is widely recognized as the most prestigious art fair in the world, covering more than 7,000 years of artwork and antique or design objects. Represented by over 270 art dealers, together representing over 20 different countries.
In 2012, TEFAF launched its Museum Restoration Fund, which aims to support and promote the work of conservation professionals with works in museum collections. Each year, TEFAF thus allocates a total grant of €50,000 shared between two restoration projects. It is also a way for TEFAF to express its gratitude to the hundreds of museums and institutions that support it and come to its two fairs every year.
TEFAF also supports newer and emerging talent in the art and antiques sector through its Showcase section.
