NEW YORK, NY.- The Salon Art + Design, which presents historical, modern and contemporary furniture, groundbreaking design and late 19th through 21st century art, announced the 2018 exhibitors for its forthcoming seventh edition, November 8 - 12, 2018 at the iconic Park Avenue Armory. The fair, produced by Sanford Smith + Associates, will showcase 56 galleries representing 11 countries, including 30 international galleries.
Following its landmark sixth installment last November, which welcomed more than 12,000 visitors, the 2018 edition of The Salon Art + Design will bring together a diverse and international group of art and design dealers showcasing exceptional global material for every taste. In addition to 26 U.S. exhibitors, this year will include a selection of European and international galleries hailing from Belgium (3), France (12), Germany (1), Italy (3), Monaco (1), the Netherlands (1), South Africa (1), Spain (1), Sweden (1) and the United Kingdom (6). Visitors will find classic designs by international 20th century masters, as well as works by contemporary artists. Offerings range from classic and abstract antiquities to Art Nouveau, Deco, Mid Century Modern and the 1970’s, 80’s and 90’s culminating in the latest work of emerging masters.
Newcomers to The Salon include Carolle Thibaut-Pomerantz (France), Chahan Gallery (France), Donzella (U.S.), Galerie de la Béraudiére (Belgium), Galerie Hervout (France), Glass Past (U.S.), Heller Gallery (U.S.), Mouvements Moderns (France), Phoenix Ancient Art (Switzerland/U.S.), Southern Guild (South Africa), Dansk Mobelkunst (Denmark) and The Future Perfect (U.S.).
“As The Salon’s success is predicated on the quality of its galleries and the material they exhibit, we are proud to announce this outstanding lineup of exceptional exhibitors,” says Executive Director Jill Bokor. “Few fairs today include the range of both fine and decorative arts found at The Salon. Recognizing the desire of collectors and interior designers to create environments rather than simply amass objects, the Salon exhibitors are chosen for their precise and creative way of presenting material that both predicts and reflects trends in the international culture of living. Ultimately, The Salon is curated on the premise that collectors and designers insist on a vibrant, uncommon array of styles, materials, and periods as long as the quality is impeccable.”
The Salon Art + Design is proud to partner with returning sponsors Ruinart, Goyard and Phillips and welcomes first-time sponsors Lalique, Incollect, Karma Automotive, Hennessy Paradis Impérial and Charles Burnand, designer of this year’s Collector’s Lounge. Financial Times How To Spend It returns as a media sponsor alongside newcomers Architectural Digest and Cultured. Charity partners include Dia Art Foundation and Planned Parenthood.
As part of their unique line of programming, The Salon will present several ancillary events that will support the main production. Among these programs include an exclusive book signing with renowned New Yorker and design authority, Wendy Moonan, in which she unveils her new book, New York Splendor: The City’s Most Memorable Rooms. In her elegant tome, Moonan ushers readers on a tour of some the city’s finest private rooms, past and present.
