The Armory Show is an international contemporary art fair known as “New York’s Art Fair.” First held in 1994 under the name Gramercy International Art Fair, it has since become a key event in the city’s cultural calendar. The 2025 edition opens with a VIP preview on September 4 and runs from September 5 to 7 at the Javits Center, bringing together more than 230 galleries.
PİLEVNELİ is participating in this year’s edition with works by :mentalKLINIK, Nevin Aladağ, Refik Anadol, Rasim Aksan, Lal Batman, Johan Creten, Ryan Gander, Kevin Francis Gray, Barış Göktürk, and Serkan Sarıer. The booth is curated by :mentalKLINIK.
After being acquired by Frieze in 2023, The Armory Show is undergoing a transformation under the direction of Kyla McMillan, who became the fair’s first full-time director in 2024. During the same week, a number of smaller art fairs and special events take place across the city — a period often referred to as “Armory Week” or “New York Arts Week”.
