Auckland Art Fair
The Cloud
Queens Wharf
1140
Auckland
Nuova Zelanda

New Zealand’s premier contemporary art fair, Auckland Art Fair, returns to the The Cloud on Auckland’s Queens Wharf from Wednesday 1st – Sunday 5th May, 2019.

This year’s Fair will feature an incredible line-up of 41 participating galleries from across New Zealand and Australia, the Pacific, Hong Kong, China and as far as Chile exhibiting significant work from well-known and emerging artists.

The event, which now runs annually, has established its place in the New Zealand Arts scene under the directorship of Stephanie Post and Hayley White.

As written by Will Cox in Broadsheet (Australia) following the 2018 Auckland Art Fair: “New Zealand’s art scene is vibrant, moving, astute, and gnaws at your consciousness, with a strong connection to history and place… youthful, irreverent and culturally diverse”

This year’s Fair will see work from over 150 artists, from countries including New Zealand, Australia, Tonga, Samoa, China and Hong Kong, Indonesia, Spain, Germany, UK, Japan, Sierra Leone, Chile and Israel attract an estimated crowd of over 10,000 people to Auckland’s Queens Wharf.

Alongside the galleries in the main section of the Fair, we will also see the return of Piki Mai: Up Here ^^, an area of the Fair that features young galleries and artist run spaces. First introduced in 2018, Piki Mai: Up Here ^^ is located on the mezzanine level of The Cloud and offers a snapshot of artists whose work could appear at future art fairs.
