The fair plays a leading role in the city’s position as an important cultural capital through elevated presentations, thoughtful programming, curatorial leadership, meaningful institutional partnerships, and engaging public art activations.

To discover The Armory Show 2024’s exhibitors, the fair is organized into the following sections: Galleries, Solo, Focus, Presents, and Platform.

Besides all the galleries and artists, the Show becomes a focal point for collectors, art historians, students, burgeoning curators and media.
