“Superfine completely affected my trajectory.
While I did make sales at the fair, it was what happened post-fair that mattered. I have had around 20 commissions as a result of the fair…TWENTY!!
You guys truly support artists and it means so much.”
– Natalie Barfield, Superfine Exhibitor

Hear what our clients have to say about us!
“Superfine has been a life-changing experience that accelerated my career and created so many new relationships with artists, collectors, curators, galleries and journalists that I still benefit from to this day.”
– Sean Christopher Ward, exhibiting artist
Here’s what the media is saying:
“Superfine blurs the line between performance and immersion, it has become a national interactive art exposition that can be enjoyed by everybody.”
– The Cut
"Founded on the principles of inclusivity…the fairs are themed to be inclusive and fun for everyone."
– Amanda Lauren, Forbes
“an art fair giving the traditional model of selling and acquiring art a run for its money”
– Sam Manzella, Logo’s NewNowNext
"My Superfine experience was instrumental for my growth as an artist. The opportunity to engage directly with collectors and creative peers in an intense and vibrant environment taught me a great deal about the down-to-earth aspects of the art world. I made new connections, found new homes for my paintings, and discovered new ways to think about my work and my process. All this is thanks to the Superfine team's professionalism: their hands-on approach, their diligence, and their care are felt at all times - I believe their hard work is the true secret to the fair's success."
– Ken Goshen, exhibiting artist
We love all artists. But not every one is a fit.
You might not be a fit for Superfine if:
1
You’re a stick in the mud. You’ve got your feet stuck in the cement of the art world of yore, even if it’s not working, and you aren’t looking for a better way to sell art and grow a strong collector list.
2
Your approach to curation is “The more the merrier.” You’re not open to friendly, professional curatorial guidelines designed to provide you with results (we mean sales.)
3
You’re looking at an art fair as a get-rich-quick scheme. Success at growing your collector base means putting in time and effort, learning, and putting into practice what you’ve learned.
But you’ve made it this far. We think you might be!
Ready to replace your job income with art income?
We created a better way for you to connect directly with collectors, sell your art, and build a client list with a minimal time commitment.
Hi! We’re Alex Mitow and James Miille, co-founders of Superfine Art Fair. When we started Superfine back in 2015, James’ art career was just beginning. Those first steps with fraught with peril: “bad actor” gallerists promising big dollars without delivering, waste-of-time submission-based projects that bordered on outright scams, and group shows that were more about friends drinking free booze than actual art sales.
There had to be a better way.
As artists and collectors, we believe regular people excited about art should connect directly with artists and support their work, and that artists can meet and retain their collectors, make more sales, and replace job income with art income. Superfine is an art fair for artists who don’t need permission to succeed. You can build a market for yourself, saving time, energy, and stress. As we’ve expanded to cities across the country: NYC, LA, Seattle, Washington DC, San Francisco, Miami, and Savannah, we’ve proven that the artist-to-buyer connection is at the center of a sustainable art market. In just 4 or 5 days, our artists are creating more collectors than they were in an entire year. 75% of our surveyed visitors agree that meeting and connecting with artists is their favorite part of attending each Superfine Art Fair. With every call for artists we add serious, professional artists to our Superfine family.
We look forward to breaking art world rules with you, welcoming you to our business artist community, and winning an excited new audience for your art at our New York City art fair this spring!
—Alex and James
