AOTEAROA ART FAIR

NEXT FAIR:
1 – 4 May 2025
Viaduct Events Centre
Auckland, New Zealand

Aotearoa Art Fair, New Zealand’s premier event for contemporary art, returns to Auckland from 1 – 4 May 2025. One of the most significant art events in New Zealand’s cultural calendar, the Fair welcomes thousands of local and international visitors each year.

The Fair spotlights the breadth and diversity of contemporary art in our region, bringing together leading galleries from New Zealand and Australia to showcase a range of works by emerging and established artists.

Since 2024, the Fair has been under the ownership of the organisers of international art fairs: Sydney Contemporary, Art SG, Taipei Dangdai, and Tokyo Gendai. Leveraging their international expertise and vast network of connections, this promises an exciting future and will take the event to new heights.

Whether you’re a seasoned collector, occasional buyer, or just curious about art, this is your opportunity to browse and buy from hundreds of works. From painting to sculpture, print to ceramics, there’s something for everyone at the Aotearoa Art Fair.

Aotearoa Art Fair 2025 tickets will go on sale in the summer.

GALLERIES

The Aotearoa Art Fair showcases leading galleries from Asia and beyond, offering a comprehensive look at the remarkable diversity of the Asia-Pacific region.

See the first survey in 20 years of the work of renowned Aotearoa New Zealand painter, Gretchen Albrecht, on now at @te_uru_gallery. Held across four gallery spaces, the exhibition 'Liquid States' includes paintings, watercolours, collages, and drawings produced in the 1970s and 1980s that illustrate the enduring conceptual and material significance of liquidity in Albrecht’s practice. The artist’s embrace of liquid media and applications in these formative decades is key to understanding the tussle between motion and stasis, articulation of nature, and fluid stylistic parameters that have come to characterise her work. 📅 On now - 2 February 2025 📍 Titirangi, Auckland Learn more via @te_uru_gallery Pictured: Gretchen Albrecht, Golden Sky Stream, 1973
