The ArtRio fair this year showed a more active market in the intermediate price ranges, with museums internationally researching Brazilian artists. The event saw a contrast between the selective secondary market for modern Brazilian art and the more dynamic contemporary market, with sales ranging from $10,000 to $80,000. Several notable sales included a Gyula Kosice artwork sold for R$ 700,000, a Cristina Canale painting for $80,000, and a Manabu Mabe artwork for $110,000.

The fair also drew attention from international institutional figures, including Sheikha Al-Mayassa bint Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani, president of Qatar Museums, and Manuel Segade, director of the Museo Reina Sofía. Several galleries reported strong sales, including Pinakotheke Cultural, Galleria Continua, and Casa Triângulo.
