  "account": "The 11th Arte Foto Fair, an event showcasing 38 photographers from Santa Catarina, opens in Florianópolis on Thursday 27 August 2026 at 6pm. The fair runs until Saturday 19 September 2026 at the Helena Fretta Galeria de Arte, located in the Centro district of Florianópolis, which is the capital of Santa Catarina and an island city in southern Brazil. The gallery also hosts a continuous exhibition programme and will showcase both artwork and sell photographic art.\n\nThe fair's special guest, Cuban artist Yanahara Mauri Villarreal, adds an international presence to the event, making it a unique platform for local photographic art to circulate and gain broader visibility. The curators of this edition, Lucila Horn and Isabela Cisne, have selected the works for this year's fair, which focuses on photography from Santa Catarina. The fair is a selling event, creating new chances for local photographers to reach a wider audience and gain exposure.\n\nThe fair is open from Monday to Friday, 10am to 6.30pm, and on Saturdays from 10am to 1pm. No ticket price or entry fee has been confirmed for the 2026 edition, so visitors should verify with the gallery. The fair has been held at the Helena Fretta Galeria de Arte since at least 2017, when the second edition took place. For the ninth edition in 2024, works included photo collages, documentary photography, and other forms of photographic art.",
