The Armory Show at the Javits Center in New York is all about putting new and emerging artists center stage. A highlight in the contemporary art world, the fair features more than 240 galleries across some 30 countries, capturing the creativity and sheer innovation of modern-day creators. Exhibitors at the 2022 event include 303 Gallery, Kasmin Gallery, David Zwirner and Ben Brown Fine Arts, to name just a few.

“This September, after nearly three decades, [The Armory Show] continues to support excellence in the visual arts by kicking off New York’s fall art season,” says executive producer Nicole Berry. “We look forward to burnishing our reputation as a cornerstone of New York’s cultural landscape.”

For the first time, The Armory Show will present the “Armory Spotlight,” which provides a complimentary booth to a different New York cultural institution each year. This year is a partnership with The Kitchen, an experimental arts institution and one of New York City’s oldest not-for-profit spaces.
