Mana, Clocktower, and MECA Art Fair

The MECA International Art Fair will take place in Santurce, Puerto Rico from June 1-4 of 2017 at the Conservatorio de Música de Puerto Rico. 

In celebration of a new partnership between Mana Contemporary, Clocktower Productions, and MECA International Art Fair, one exhibiting artist from the Mecanismos division of the fair will be awarded a three-month studio residency in Miami for the fall of 2017. Mana and Clocktower have selected a panel of jurors to choose the winning artist, which will be announced at the close of MECA.
