TEFAF New York Names 88 Exhibitors, Announces May 14 Preview, May 15-19

The celebrated New York fair unites 88 world-class dealers at the Park Avenue Armory, spanning modern and contemporary art, design, jewelry, and antiquities, and will open with an invitation-only collectors’ preview on Thursday, May 14 before the public fair runs May 15 to 19, 2026. TEFAF’s roster, announced in a Feb 3, 2026 press release and reported by ARTnews, emphasizes jewelry and high jewelry alongside high-end decorative arts and antiquities.

TEFAF says the 88 exhibitors represent dealers from 14 countries across four continents, a slate that includes nine new exhibitors, 78 returning dealers, and four galleries rejoining after an absence. The fair’s official exhibitor list used typographic markers to denote status, with bold for galleries new to TEFAF New York 2026 and italics for those returning after an absence, according to TEFAF materials.

A sample of the galleries named in the announcement illustrates the fair’s geographic and disciplinary reach: Macklowe Gallery, Anthony Meier, Edward Tyler Nahem, Pace Gallery, Pace Di Donna Schrader Galleries, and Salon 94 from the United States; Galerie Marcilhac, Galerie Marcelpoil, Mennour, Mitterrand, Lucas Ratton, and Galerie Nathalie Obadia from France; Galleria d’Arte Maggiore g.a.m. and ML Fine Art from Italy; Modernity Stockholm from Sweden; Sarah Myerscough Gallery and Robilant+Voena from the United Kingdom; The Page Gallery from South Korea; Nara Roesler from Brazil; and Piano Nobile from the United Kingdom, among others. These names are a subset drawn from the dealer list supplied with the ARTnews coverage.

Speaking to the fair’s identity, Leanne Jagtiani, Director of TEFAF New York, framed the edition around its participants: “The heart of TEFAF New York lies with its exhibitors,” said Leanne Jagtiani, Director of TEFAF New York. "In 2026, we’re proud to present a compelling lineup of dealers, both longstanding participants and an exciting group of newcomers, who represent the best across disciplines. From internationally celebrated modern and contemporary art, iconic design, cultural antiquities, and high jewelry, this year’s edition will further strengthen the fair as a leading platform for connoisseurship and discovery."

Sponsorship and institutional support are emphasized in TEFAF’s announcement: “Bank of America, Lead Partner of TEFAF New York since Spring 2017, will continue its support of the fair, joined by AXA XL, now in its second year as Global Lead Partner and long-standing Lead Partner of TEFAF Maastricht. Together, these cultural and economic leaders reaffirm their shared commitment to celebrating art, advancing cultural preservation, and bringing together an international community each spring at TEFAF New York.”

Visuals and atmosphere are part of the fair’s appeal; the TEFAF press materials credit a 2025 image to Vincent Tullo, and ARTnews’s coverage included the caption, “Crowds walk between flower covered columns at TEFAF New York.” Separately, contemporaneous market activity noted in the source bundle included a Sotheby’s headline about a $130 million Robert Mnuchin collection led by a $70–100 million Rothko, underscoring the vigorous auction market surrounding the spring calendar.

When doors open for the collectors’ preview on May 14 and for the public on May 15, TEFAF New York will present an international cross section of dealers and disciplines, a concentrated moment for collectors, curators, and vintage-jewelry buyers to assess works offered by 88 exhibitors at the Park Avenue Armory.
