ADAA's The Art Show at Park Avenue Armory Precedes Armory Show on Piers
The Art Show, organized by the Art Dealers Association of America (ADAA), opened at the Park Avenue Armory in New York City in March 2018. This annual exhibition preceded the Armory Show on the piers due to venue scheduling conflicts. The event featured works from galleries including Lawrence Markey, which presented a piece by artist James Bishop. A review by David Cohen for artcritical highlighted the exhibition's focus on aesthetic quality, noting Bishop's work as a standout where color and space appeared organically integrated. The show served as an alternative to the larger fair, offering curated presentations from ADAA member galleries.
