The second edition of the Aspen Art Fair opened at the historic Hotel Jerome with over 40 exhibitors from more than 15 countries, more than doubling its size from the previous year. The fair is one of three major events during Aspen Art Week, alongside Intersect Aspen Art and Design (now in its 15th edition) and the AIR Festival, a $20 million initiative by the Aspen Art Museum. Dealers and advisers, including Paul Henkel of Palo Gallery and Christian Gundin of El Apartamento, noted that while there are too many art fairs globally, Aspen's smaller, hyper-focused format attracts serious collectors and fosters stronger relationships. Blue-chip galleries like Sean Kelly and Marianne Boesky also participated, with Boesky having a long history in the town.
