In 1994, four New York art dealers had the ambitious goal of creating a new art fair to support their artists and attract global attention. They succeeded. The result was a groundbreaking cultural moment that has become vital to the New York art market and beyond. While much has changed over the years, our ingenuity and ambition have not. The Armory Show is a galvanizing force in the art world and essential to New York’s cultural landscape.
For the 2025 edition, The Armory Show introduces Function, a new section at the fair that will highlight the intersection of art and design. The section will feature solo and two-artist booths by intergenerational artists, presented by an international selection of artists. The section aims to demonstrate the ways in which artists are influenced by design tenets.
