A new feature of this 21st edition is the Decades section, which with its nine galleries offers an itinerary through the 20th century decade by decade. Decades outlines a narrative that emphasizes the two spirits of miart – modern and contemporary – with particular emphasis on high-quality historic art in a moment of great interest on the international market in the art of the period after World War II, particularly in Italy.
Decades joins the four sections that have been parts of miart since 2013: Established, with 99 exhibitors – subdivided into the subsections Master, for galleries presenting historically acclaimed artists, and Contemporary, for galleries specializing in contemporary work; Emergent, on 16 international galleries concentrating on the research of the younger generations, including 11 foreign galleries; THENnow, which features 8 pairs of galleries that join forces to trigger dialogue between one historic artist and one from a more recent generation; and, finally, Object, with a selection of 14 galleries active in the promotion of contemporary design objects created in limited editions and approached as works of art.
Miart 2016 renews and increases the close collaboration launched in the latest editions with the realities operating in the city for the promotion and knowledge of art. Working with the City of Milan, miart leads the way during contemporary art week, which includes a program of events, openings and special visiting hours involving public institutions, foundations and private galleries, starting on 5 April, throughout the period of the fair.
Every day there are special visits and openings, starting with the 21st Milan Triennale – "21st Century. Design After Design" – which will be held in many public and private institutional spaces around the city. There will also be openings at Palazzo Reale of the retrospective on Studio Azzurro and at HangarBicocca for the solo show by Carsten Höller, the opening of the second exhibition at Fondazione Carriero and of the new FM Center for Contemporary Art of Frigoriferi Milanesi, special opening times for the city at Fondazione Prada, special visits to the exhibitions in progress at Palazzo Reale – 2050 and the shows on Umberto Boccioni and Symbolism – the exhibition of the winning artist of the Premio Acacia at Museo del Novecento, special hours with guided visits at PAC, GAM, Palazzo della Ragione and MUDEC, and a thousand other appointments the city is presently preparing, clearly reviving Milan's role as a capital of contemporary creativity and moving forward with the energy and vitality ignited in the city by Expo 2015. Great expectations for the new special project miart produces and presents with Fondazione Nicola Trussardi, after the great success of Liberi Tutti in 2013 and Cine Dreams in 2014.

In continuity with the three previous editions, a new cycle of miartalks will accompany the three days when the fair is open to the public. Produced in collaboration with In Between Art Film – the production house for artists' films and experimental video founded by Beatrice Bulgari – and with coordination by Ben Borthwick, artistic director of the Plymouth Arts Centre (Plymouth, UK), the new cycle of miartalks will be a platform of lectures, conversations and interviews involving over 40 outstanding international personalities including curators, artists, directors of museums and film festivals, collectors, filmmakers, choreographers and producers invited to explore the ongoing dialogue between the world of the visual arts and those of experimental cinema, music, video, theater and dance.
