Maintaining its Flavor as a Trendy and Boutique Fair
Enjoy the luxury of roaming through 4 connected, fully-enclosed, temperature controlled, huge modular buildings. Such an extraordinary selection of modern and contemporary masterpieces is unprecedented in the Hamptons. Carefully vetted, limiting the number of galleries provides a more manageable viewing and buying experience.
Time to Invest in Art
In today’s economy, many fairgoers are looking to art as an alternative investment class for their assets. Our fair provides a wide selection of art as an investment opportunity.
Paying Homage to the Area’s Respected Art Tradition Since 1900, over 600 internationally known artists have lived or worked in the Hamptons. Equally important, the East End of Long Island has been a fertile terrain for serious and intelligent collecting. In 2009, we again pay homage to this area’s rich history by staging ArtHamptons
One of the Highlights of The 2009 Summer Social Season
Already referred to by many as a “mini-ArtBasel in the Hamptons”, ArtHamptons is filled with renowned art admirers and art acquirers in a festive-like setting. In addition to the Wall Street set, we attract from a cross-section of creative fields such as entertainment, design, fashion and celebrity business. Brimming with high net worth individuals in a fun and glamorous setting, this fair ignites creative sparks as attendees meander through the world-class galleries and network with art dealers.
