Independent Art Fair

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Independent Art Fair was established in New York City in 2010 by gallerist Elizabeth Dee as a means of challenging the typical format of art fairs.[1][2] It is typically held during Armory Week in March, and more than one third of its exhibitors come from outside the United States.[3][4]

The fair has been held in venues across the city, including Spring Studios in 2019.[5][6] The 2021 edition will mark the reopening of the Battery Maritime Building in Lower Manhattan.[7]
