MEDIA KIT Salon magazine is a sought after reference for top designers and collectors
Salon - The Intersection of Art + Design, September 2021 Since 2001, Salon Art + Design, based in New York, has been the premier international design fair in the United States, featuring the world’s most influential galleries and partners. Exhibitors specializing in historic, modern, and contemporary design are complemented by immersive displays and exhibitions from our partners, making Salon the only fair of this calibre to combine styles, genres, periods, and influences. The 2020 pandemic has presented new challenges globally. As more and more people work from home, there is a reignited interest and new imagination of the way we live now and for the foreseeable future. What has been proven in this new era is that designers still design, and private collectors still collect. Now more than ever, high net worth individuals are purchasing art and collectible design for their homes. Virtual fairs and digital viewing rooms have become the “new normal.” However, at Salon we always like to break the mould. Following the amazing success of our November 2020 Edition of Salon we are pleased to invite you to participate in the September 2021 Edition. Consider this an opportunity to showcase works you exhibit in your gallery/showroom not only to our loyal fair attendees, but also a wider, cultivated audience. And unlike a virtual fair, Salon magazine is designed to keep.
