ADAA Fair Returns After Hiatus with Smaller, More Focused Line-Up
The Art Dealers Association of America (ADAA) has revealed the list of exhibitors for its rebranded ADAA Fair, which is set to return following a year-long break. The 2025 fair was postponed as part of a "strategic pause." Scheduled for November 13 to 16, 2026, at the Park Avenue Armory, this edition will feature 63 exhibitors, a reduction of 20% compared to 2024. Executive director Kinsey Robb notes that this smaller selection is "more focused." Among the prominent exhibitors are Hirschl & Adler and Berggruen Gallery, alongside newcomers like Alexander Berggruen and Sargent's Daughters. Highlights will include Alex Katz at Peter Blum Gallery and a solo exhibition by Betye Saar at Roberts Projects. The preview gala will support the Whitney Museum, replacing the previous collaboration with Henry Street Settlement. In 2025, global art sales increased by 4%, reaching $59.6 billion.
