Astonishing variety, unabashed luxury at THE SALON ART + DESIGN 2018
R + Company |
THE SALON ART + DESIGN, an epic and extraordinary event produced by Sanford Smith + Associates, will return for its seventh edition to the iconic Park Avenue Armory in New York City, opening on November 9th and running through November 12th. With record attendance numbers in 2017, THE SALON has emerged as a preeminent art and design fair, lauded for unparalleled eclecticism, vibrant energy, and the unabashed luxuriousness of its offerings. Reflecting a global approach to design and collecting, the fair will host 57 galleries from 11 different countries, and with more than half of the exhibitors coming from outside the United States, it is an opportunity to view a selection and range of work rarely seen here. The show mirrors the current expanded thinking on art and design, with their definitions and boundaries broadened to include a wide range of creative works as art, and design objects now recognized as works of art themselves.

The eclecticism of THE SALON is unparalleled, from antiquities to blue-chip European, American and Chinese works of art, to up-to-the-minute creations alongside vintage, modern and contemporary design. Offerings range from the antique wallpapers and Oceanic art offered by Carolle Thibaut-Pomerantz, who is showing for the first time, to the sinuous chair-as-sculpture by Gildas Berthelot, offered by show veteran Galerie BSL. First-time exhibitor New York gallery Donzella will be offering not only the post-war design from the United States and Italy which has been his life-long passion, but contemporary pieces he is bringing to the United States for the first time ever. Stunning works will be presented by Incollect dealers Galerie Negropontes, Karl Kemp, Liz O'Brien, Lost City Arts, Moderne Gallery, Todd Merrill Studio, Twenty First Gallery, and Wexler Gallery; see their offerings on Incollect for more inspiration.
