 The American Art Fair is celebrating its eleventh year of bringing together museum professionals, collectors, and seventeen of the most outstanding American Art dealers in a central location during the American Art fall sales in New York. With their vast experience, extensive expertise, reliable reputations, and personalized services, our dealers offer through their well-established galleries the highest quality in their exhibits at The American Art Fair. Our Fair is unique in choosing to focus exclusively on the best examples of historically important artists, presenting over fourhundred artworks in a thoughtful environment of reflection, personal interaction, and immediate contact. Together with our colleagues, we helped to create American Art Week by joining our three floors of exhibitors and schedule of special lectures with Just Off Madison, an art walk, and a host of receptions coinciding with the fall auctions to produce a celebration attracting visitors from all over the country. I am delighted to welcome you to the eleventh annual American Art Fair, and I salute all the dealers and our outstanding speakers who have worked so hard to make our Fair a success.
