Kasmin’s stand is the first focused display of Judith Bernstein’s lesser-known charcoal text drawings from 1989 to 2009. London’s Maureen Paley, which has been showing at the fair since the initial edition in 2009, and Berlin powerhouse Peres Projects will show alongside another Londoner, first-time exhibitor and three-year-old gallery Niru Ratnam (showing work by the British-Ghanaian painter Kimathi Donkor) and Los Angeles-based Diane Rosenstein Gallery-which is giving Nigerian-British painter Abe Odedina his New York debut. This year’s fair, which once again takes over Spring Studios in the increasingly crowded Tribeca art district, showcases new works while filling historical gaps from galleries of every size. “We want to present a true overview of the art world rather than just the industry which has been constantly growing around us.” “We have always been consciously scaled and very intentional about our every step,” says Elizabeth Dee, the fair’s founder. The programme for its 14th edition (11-14 May) features an international coterie of 66 galleries presenting a mix of works by blue-chip and emerging artists.
