This May, Art New York— the NYC showcase presented by Art Miami—will return to Pier 94 for its fourth edition, highlighting the work of important artists from the contemporary, post-war and pop art eras. This unique showcase will see more than 95 international galleries from 30 countries exhibit their collections of modern and contemporary paintings, photography, prints, drawing, design and sculpture, with the inclusion of artworks by over 1,200 artists, and CONTEXT, a platform for galleries to present cutting-edge talent .
The fair also promises to feature important artworks from 20th and 21st century artists such as David Hockney, Alexander Calder, Pablo Picasso, Roy Lichtenstein, Marc Chagall, Andy Warhol and Edward Hopper. With such a diversity of art on display, the event is set to welcome both new and established curators, along with museum professionals and luminaries from the art world, to discover this carefully curated exhibition of investment-quality artworks.
Nick Korniloff, the co-director of Art New York tells us: “We are excited to once again present a premium international contemporary and modern art fair. As the most experienced fair producer in America, we provide collectors, private and corporate art advisors, curators and designers a wide breadth of important artwork from the 20th and 21st centuries that are available for acquisition, while also complementing all the activities of Art Week in New York City.”
The co-director Julian Navarro continues: “Art New York will present an integrated selection of contemporary, modern, post-war and pop art alongside our CONTEXT platform with emerging, mid-career and cutting-edge talents to create a synergy between the different eras and styles. We have curated and redesigned the ambience and amenities for all of our guests, and the new design will present a fresh perspective that will provide our collectors with a premier experience.”
