ART Santa Fe 2009

ART Santa Fe 2009 will be held July 23-26, 2009.

Galleries come from across the nation and Europe to participate in ART Santa Fe and it has been consistently reported to be a positive experience for them and for their collectors. So much so, in fact, that the number of requests for an annual fair simply became impossible to refuse. Julie Baker, whose gallery in Nevada City, California, carries the work of emerging artists, stated that "ART Santa Fe... was great for us. We met top-quality collectors, sold almost all of the work we brought and received great attention for the artist we presented.... There is a strong and growing contemporary art collector base in Santa Fe with a sophisticated enthusiasm for the arts." Cleveland gallery owner Steve Hartman of Contessa Galleries was "extremely impressed with the wide geographical reach of the show." Asked if Contessa will be back, Hartman replied, "Absolutely. The director and staff did a tremendous job...very professional, with phenomenal speakers, parties, and visitors lounge for us. The local people were also very welcoming, thanking us profusely for coming." As for Santa Fe gallerists, Sidney and Michelle Monroe of Monroe Gallery of Photography asserted that they "had an excellent experience at ART Santa Fe, Attendance was good. Our sales were very strong and surpassed our expectations."
