Preview the Exceptional Finds at The Salon Art + Design

The Salon Art + Design returns to New York’s iconic Park Avenue Armory on November 8 with 56 exhibiting galleries, most of which are international. The annual fair presents historical, modern, and contemporary furniture, groundbreaking design and art from the late 19th through the 21st centuries. This year’s iteration features offerings as diverse as a rare Elephanteau armchair by Jean Royère at Galerie Chastel Marechal to postwar masters drawings at David Lévy & Associés and treasures from the ancient world at Ariadne Galleries.

Following a landmark sixth installment last year, which welcomed more than 12,000 visitors, the 2018 edition of The Salon aims to bring together a diverse, international group of art and design dealers showcasing exceptional global material for every taste.

See our selections below for a preview of some of the most anticipated booths at the fair.
