About/Press/Join!
Re-Branding “Craft” for Today’s Market:
The art world still resists welcoming “craft” into its fairs. The SOFA shows have succeeded in distinguishing craft by using words like Functional Art, Objects and Furnishings, bringing the finest work to the international art market. The Architectural Digest show established their Made section, avoiding using the word “craft,” yet handmade glass, wood, ceramics & furniture comprise the show.
American Art Marketing is providing fine craft artists and designers a platform to show and sell their work at the new Contemporary Art Fair this May. The international art fairs are where you will find your new customers, trending towards a young & sophisticated audience. In May both the fairs and the buyers will be in New York for Frieze week.
The SOFA Alternative For Artist:s
Join us along with some of the most notable and well established art fairs, as we launch the first alternative to the SOFA fairs exclusively for artists + designers in the heart of the Chelsea Arts District.With just 47 booths available, only the highest quality work will be considered.
