Frieze Art Fair - Randall's Island Park - New York Consulate Region

No need to start May uninspired. From May 3 – 8, three big art fairs: Frieze, Art New York Fair, and Context will exhibit several Dutch designers. There are many more art fairs to add to your May-schedule. But to start with some high-brow exhibitions, here is an overview of the Dutch designers, and Dutch galleries at Frieze, New York Art Fair, and Context.

1. FRIEZE

Frieze New York 2016 (May 5 – 8) brings together the world’s leading galleries, innovative curated sections, a celebrated series of talks, site-specific artist commissions and the city’s most talked about restaurants, all in a bespoke structure overlooking the East River in Randall’s Island Park, Manhattan.

Jeanine Hofland Gallery

Jeanine Hofland Gallery exhibiits contemporary art. Their vision is to show deliberate art, and platform national and international artists.

Artist Hannah Perry 

Jeanine Hofland Gallery exhibits artist Hannah Perry. The practice of Hannah Perry is an audio–visual melting pot,  into which imagery related to love, anger, the male gaze, pop music, and street culture are all mixed. Through an hypnotic process of editing and re-editing, moving and still images, language and music are coalesced into an interlinking but non-linear multi-media network of video, sound-pieces, prints and performances. 

Hannah Perry – I’d be lying if I said I was ok (2016) – Triptych, Lacquer and silkscreen print on aluminium board – 72 x 48 x 1.5 inches (182.88 x 121.92 x 3.81 cm) 

2. Art New York Fair

Art Miami, the preeminent producer of leading international contemporary and modern art fairs, presents Art New York Fair for its second year, and the debut of CONTEXT New York this spring. The two highly-anticipated events will showcase artwork from more than 150 galleries respresenting nearly 1200 artists from 50 countries. The sister art fairs will take place May 3 – 8 at Pier 94, effectively launching New York Art Week, the pinnacle of New York’s art and cultural season.

Wanrooij Gallery

Wanrooij Gallery, situated at a prime location in Amsterdam – the Netherlands, provides a stage for internationally acclaimed and emerging artists with a focus on new media art. 

Dutch artist Diederick Kraaijeveld

Artist Diederick Kraaijeveld constructs truly unique photo-realistic collages from salvaged wood. Kraaijeveld’s pieces have all been beautifully created from genuine, coloured vintage wood that the artist himself collects as he travels the globe: from abandoned buildings in the Mojave Desert to 16th century Dutch mansion floors. 

Gallery Delaive

For over 39 years Gallery Delaive has specialized in Modern and Contemporary Art. An important feature of the gallery is the large collection of original works by Sam Francis on paper and canvas. Gallery Delaive is the exclusive representative of the Sam Francis Foundation for Europe. 

Artist Sam Francis 

Sam Francis (1923 – 1994) occupies a prominent position in post-war American painting. Although associated with the Abstract Expressionist movement and Clement Greenberg’s Post-Painterly Abstraction, unlike many American painters of he time he had direct and prolonged exposure to French painting and to Japanese art which had an individual impact on his work.

SmithDavison Gallery

The Amsterdam and Miami based SmithDavidson Gallery, is specialized in Modern and Contemporary Art with a focus on paintings and photography.

Dutch artist Marie Cécile Thijs

Marie Cécile Thijs is an artist with a distinctive signature.  Her portraits are still lifes, and her still lifes become portraits. She is influenced by the old masters in painting, yet her work is clearly contemporary. Stillness is key.

Villa Del Arte Gallery

The combined commitment of Villa Del Arte Gallery owners Bert van Zetten, Nemo Jantzen, Marcel and Jutta Huisman, and passion for art, together with a unique approach and willingness to exhibit some lesser-known artists has contributed to an ever-changing contemporary collection of a consistently high standard.

Dutch artist Yvonne Michiels

Yvonne Michiels tells personal stories about beauty, emotions and mortality. She uses topical examples from modern society. This results in aesthetic, innovative portraits that are not only fascinating, but often also moving.

The Public House of Art

The Public House of Art has bi-annual themed, eclectic shows that are open to all. They sell photographs in limited editions and unique one-off sculptures and paintings, verified by us and signed by the artist. They believe in housing art that is affordable yet highly collectable. That is why their art can go up in value and status. A nice side note: the work of Eric Guo, Untouchables 3, is selected by the ART NY staff to be featured in their public space. Find the arwork here.

Dutch artist Jenny Boot

Jenny Boot (1969) started her artistic career as a painter, but soon realised photography was an even more precise medium to express her feelings, a language that gave her more control in translating her vision into images.

Dutch artist Barbara van den Berg

Barbara van den Berg (1978) is an insanely talented artist. Did you think the Dutch could only paint flowers and cows? Well, you will have to reconsider after seeing her work. Look closer: some of her collages are the mix of up to 40 different characters.

3. CONTEXT

The inaugural edition of CONTEXT New York will take place May 3 – 8, 2016 in Manhattan. The fair will join Art New York at Pier 94, located on the Hudson River at 12th Avenue at 55th Street. Like its hugely successful sister fair, CONTEXT Art Miami, which launched during Miami Art Week in 2012, CONTEXT New York’s open atmosphere will create meaningful dialogue between collectors, participating galleries, and artists. CONTEXT New York will provide the ultimate platform for both the veteran and unseasoned collector to enjoy and acquire mid-career, emergent and cutting-edge talent by sixty participating emerging and established galleries during one of the most important weeks for contemporary art in New York City.
