Returning with 55 exhibitors from New York, London, Paris, Milan and beyond, the fifth edition of the Salon Art + Design offers a mix of modern and contemporary art and design in a broad range of mediums at the Park Avenue Armory in New York. Perusing the aisles of the sophisticated fair—one of the few to feature both art and design—Whitehot made a list of things that we would like to take home from the fair to add to our Brooklyn loft.
Monaco’s Gate 5 Gallery and Demisch Danant, from New York and Paris, have prime pieces of vintage design, while New York’s Vivian Horan Fine Art and Connaught Brown and Offer Waterman, both from London, have coveted works of modern art. But, there’s also an abundance of exciting new works, including the Haas Brothers’ cast bronze “Extra large Elephant Skin candelabra” at New York’s R + Company, Zaha Hadid’s “Mirror Cloud-1” at London’s David Gill Gallery, and Cody Hoyt’s ceramic “Pentagon Facet Vessel III” at New York’s Patrick Parrish Gallery.
