The Art Dealers Association
Of America’s (ADAA) annual
fair, “The Art Show”
returns to The Park Avenue
Armory from Nov. 3-7 and will
feature 72 curated exhibitions.
The Art Show is showcasing

States and will feature over 400
years of paintings, sculpture

works.
“There are so many wonderful
exhibitions planned by the
galleries and more than half of
the fair is devoted to solo artist
exhibitions,” said Maureen Bray,
ADAA’s Executive Director.
“Some highlights include, Corbett
vs. Dempsey’s showcase of drawings
by Emilio Cruz and canvases
by Omar Velázquez—both of different
generations of the broader
Caribbean diaspora, their work
engages their national and ethnic
identities through allegory and allusion
and exhibited by Shoshana
Wayne Gallery, featuring major
works such as her iconic red
lipstick renderings of Marcel
Duchamp’s urinals.”
Throughout the week, The
Art Show will feature public
conversations with major collectors,
curators, museum leaders,
and industry experts including
collector Alvin Hall, writer and
editor Brian Broitcour, and curator
Christiane Paul, and among
others.
“The gallerists wanted to create
a platform to share the work
of the artists they represent with
a very wide audience and give

them the chance to experience
museum-quality exhibitions all
under one roof, while also supporting
a good cause,” said Bray.
“Today, the ADAA is comprised
of nearly 190 member galleries
from across the United States, 72
of which come together each year
to present The Art Show.”
There will be a third annual
ADAA Upper East Side Gallery
Walk. The walk will be a collaboration
between 27 ADAA
member galleries in the Park
Avenue Armory’s surrounding
neighborhood on Saturday, Nov.
6 from 3 pm to 5 pm.
Tickets start at $30; to attend
The Benefi t Perview to celebrate
the opening, ticket prices vary,
but all proceeds of the show
will support a critical New York
City non-profit, Henry Street
Settlement.
“The ADAA and Henry Street
Settlement have partnered for
more than 33 years to mount this
event,” said Bray. “Henry Street
is an incredible organization that
provides a huge range of social
and health services to thousands
of New Yorkers every year. The
Art Show is Henry Street’s single
largest source of unrestricted
funding every year, so our continued
partnership is critical,
and represents the commitment of
gallerists’ to their neighborhoods
and communities.”
