NADA New York 2025 to Showcase 120 International Art Galleries
Title: NADA New York 2025: A Global Showcase of Contemporary Art Returns to Chelsea
The New Art Dealers Alliance (NADA) is set to unveil the 11th edition of its celebrated art fair, NADA New York, taking place from May 7 to 11, 2025. Held at the iconic Starrett-Lehigh Building in Chelsea, this much-anticipated event will spotlight a vibrant array of contemporary artworks from a globally diverse field of artists, curators, and institutions.
A Cultural Gateway to the Contemporary Art World
As the signature fair of NADA, a non-profit organization committed to supporting new voices in contemporary art, NADA New York continues to play a critical role in shaping the future of the art market. The fair brings together rising talents and innovative galleries with collectors, curators, and an international audience looking to discover the art world’s next wave.
For the 2025 edition, NADA New York features 120 participants — including galleries, non-profit spaces, and artist-led initiatives — representing 19 countries and 50 cities. With locations ranging from Berlin to Buenos Aires and Tokyo to Wrocław, the fair showcases perspectives from all over the world, highlighting how contemporary art responds to and shapes global cultural trends.
Expanding Horizons: First-Time Exhibitors and Global Talent
This year sees an exciting expansion, with 54 exhibitors making their NADA New York debut. Among these are Eugster || Belgrade (Serbia), Gallery Common (Japan), CONSTITUCIÓN (Argentina), Dohing Art (South Korea), Galerie Noah Klink (Germany), and DARLA (USA). The inclusion of these new galleries reflects NADA’s continued commitment to fostering emerging artists and providing platforms for underrepresented voices in the contemporary art ecosystem.
With 65 returning NADA Members, visitors can expect a dynamic blend of familiar faces and new discoveries. The fair fosters both innovation and continuity, creating a space where critical dialogue and market opportunity go hand in hand.
Regional Focus: TD Bank Curated Spotlight
One of the highlights of NADA New York 2025 is the return of the TD Bank Curated Spotlight. This curated section focuses on artists and galleries from Texas and Mexico, selected by Owen Duffy, the Nancy C. Allen Curator and Director of Exhibitions at Asia Society Texas. This spotlight not only contextualizes regional art within the broader global community but also emphasizes transnational connections and shared narratives across borders and cultures.
NADA Presents: Performances, Conversations, and Community
Beyond the exhibition booths, NADA New York 2025 includes “NADA Presents” — a robust programming series featuring live performances, panel discussions, artist talks, and special events. Spanning the entire week of the fair, these programs offer a deeper dive into today’s most pressing artistic issues and creative practices.
Visitors can expect intimate conversations with artists and curators, interactive installations, and interdisciplinary performances that further NADA’s goals of community-building and artistic support.
A Year-Round Commitment to Global Art Dialogue
NADA New York is just one facet of the organization’s year-round programming. Looking ahead, NADA will host NADA Villa Warsaw in May, a collaborative exhibition showcasing works from members in a unique European venue. In October, NADA returns with the second edition of NADA Paris, building on the success of its international expansion. Finally, the 23rd edition of NADA Miami takes place this December, capping off the year with another major event on the global art calendar.
Whether you’re an experienced collector or an art enthusiast eager to explore new terrain, NADA New York 2025 offers a curated journey through today’s contemporary art landscape — immersive, diverse, and always inspiring.
