Tefaf New York Returns for Tenth Edition with 88 Exhibitors
From May 15 to 19, Tefaf New York will make its return to the Park Avenue Armory for its tenth edition, featuring 88 exhibitors from 14 different nations. Unlike other May fairs in Manhattan that concentrate on contemporary art, this event highlights 20th-century works. Leanne Jagtiani, the director, along with Will Korner, the head of fairs, emphasizes this Modern focus as a unique aspect. Newcomers to the fair include David Lévy, Larkin Erdmann, Piano Nobile, Macklowe Gallery, and ML Fine Art. John Berggruen, a returning exhibitor, notes a resurgence in interest for 20th-century pieces. The fair fosters cross-category collecting, a trend Tefaf has been instrumental in promoting, while also enhancing connections with Central and South American institutions such as Malba.
