Salon Art + Design returns to the Park Avenue Armory in New York for its 14th edition, running from November 6–10. The fair features nearly 50 booths from top international dealers, blending antique discoveries with contemporary masterpieces, and uniquely juxtaposes fine jewelry, mid-century furniture, and ancient relics. Members of the fair's Design + Art Advisory Council—including interior designer Andre Mellone, photographer Douglas Friedman, creative director Gabriella Khalil, and others—share the specific treasures they are most excited to see, such as Jean Royère nesting tables, a Fernando Jorge jewelry piece, and a Head of Apollo sculpture from Ariadne.
The fair stands out as the only event of its kind in the United States to take a boundary-agnostic curatorial approach, mixing design, art, and decorative objects across eras and media. This edition matters because it highlights a growing trend in the art world toward cross-disciplinary collecting and presentation, where high-end design and fine art are increasingly shown together. The involvement of prominent designers and collectors on the advisory council also signals the fair's influence in shaping taste among New York's design elite.
