Intersect Aspen Art + Design Fair returns to the Aspen Ice Garden for its 15th edition from July 29 to August 3, featuring its largest number of exhibitors to date. The fair includes solo presentations by Shepard Fairey at 212GALLERY and Michael Stipe at Jackson Fine Art, an immersive installation by Donna Isham at Varvara Roza Galleries, and a panel moderated by Carrie Scott with Heidi Zuckerman and Maryam Eisler.
The fair matters because it highlights the resilience of the high-end art market in elite enclaves like Aspen, even as the broader art market faces a slump. It underscores the importance of connecting dealers with knowledgeable, financially unconstrained collectors, and demonstrates how art fairs can thrive by offering unique experiences and programming that attract both veteran patrons and boldface names.
