From March 5–8, with a preview for invited guests on Wednesday, March 4th, Piers 92 and 94 in New York City will host the 17th edition of The Armory Show, a leading international contemporary and modern art fair. The Armory Show 2014 was an overwhelming success anchored by strong sales, extensive coverage in the international press and attendance of over 65,000 visitors. The fair featured over 200 leading galleries from North America, Europe, Latin America and Asia, showcasing important works of the 20th and 21st centuries by both established and emerging artists. For the first time, The Armory Show coincided with the opening of the Whitney Biennial, further establishing Armory Arts Week in New York City as a key moment in the international arts calendar.
The 2014 fair premiered many exciting initiatives, from Armory Focus: China, Philip Tinari’s specially curated section on Pier 94, to the inaugural edition of Armory Presents, dedicated to single and dual artist presentations by galleries under ten years old. The Armory Show – Modern featured its first ever curated exhibition, featuring seminal drawings by important women artists of the 20th century.
Applications are now open for the 2015 fair, which comprises: The Armory Show – Contemporary on Pier 94 devoted to presenting new art by living artists, and The Armory Show – Modern on Pier 92 dedicated to international dealers specializing in historically significant works of the 20th century. The Armory Show will again feature its unrivaled VIP program, a lively opening night benefit party at The Museum of Modern Art, and the engaging Open Forum discussion series. Enhanced amenities and elegant design will also be on view, activating the piers as a robust marketplace for an unparalleled array of the world’s finest modern and contemporary art.
The Armory Show 2015 will coincide with The Art Show, organized by the Art Dealers Association of America (ADAA), the sixth edition of Independent and VOLTA NY as part of Armory Arts Week.
