Exhibitors in the fair will include Claire Oliver Gallery, La Sala Art Gallery, QingYunGe Gallery, Chloe Gallery and Arcadia Contempora­ry, to name a few. On view will be an array of contempora­ry realism to more contempora­ry works, providing collectors with a breadth of items to suit their needs. At the booths attendees will find artwork by artists such as Gabi Trinkaus, Alfredo Romero, Mr. Zhou, Joe Coffey, Carrie Graber, Shaun Downey, Malcolm T. Liepke, Serge Marshennik­ov, Jeffrey Ripple, Denis Sarazhin and Adam Vinson.
