The 19th edition of the Hamptons Fine Art Fair
By RUBEN NATAL-SAN MIGUEL July 12, 2025
The 2025, 19th edition of the Hamptons Fine Art Fair is running this year from July 10–13, 2025 at the Southampton Fairgrounds. Featuring 140 galleries from all over the world, the fair brings a global art experience to the East End.
Two VIP opening events took place on July 10, 2025:
From 12–5 PM, benefitting Guild Hall
From 5–9 PM, benefitting the Parrish Art Museum
July 11, 2025 was designated as VIP Art Collectors Day.
Upon arrival—and along the entire entry tent wall—guests were welcomed by a striking sculpture park, featuring works by Antonio Galvan, Oscar Molina, Domenico Belli, Tracy Ziegler, and several others.
The fair was organized into two large pavilions: the De Kooning Luxury Pavilion and the Pollock Pavilion, named in tribute to two legendary East End painters.
The entire East End of Long Island was bustling to arrive on opening day. By 5:30 PM, the parking lot had reached full capacity. Inside, the fair was filled with excited, friendly faces—from art dealers to patrons—all dressed in their most fashionable outfits and sparkling with jewelry.
Speaking of jewels, several booths showcased the art and beauty of fine jewelry, including Yvel. And for those who forgot their sunglasses, not to worry—there was a booth offering stunning shades and handbags!
Special thanks to Sam Morris for the hospitality and warm welcome at the fair, and to Monica Azares, my Harlem, NYC neighbor, who kindly hosted me at her East Hampton residence.
Highlights from the Fair:
At Tanya Weddemire Gallery, the paintings by Gregory Saint Amand reigned supreme—demanding attention from across the pavilion.
