New ADAA member galleries from across the country energize and strengthen the ADAA’s mission to support the nation’s premier fine art dealers
(Baltimore/New York, NY – April 3, 2025) – The Art Dealers Association of America (ADAA) is pleased to announce the addition of 12 distinguished galleries to its network of the nation’s leading fine art galleries: Adams and Ollman (Portland), Piero Atchugarry Gallery (Miami), Alexander Berggruen (New York), Luis De Jesus Los Angeles (Los Angeles), Goya Contemporary Gallery (Baltimore), Nicodim (New York, Los Angeles), Night Gallery (Los Angeles), John Szoke Gallery (New York), Hollis Taggart (New York), The Pit (Los Angeles), Universal Limited Art Editions (New York), Welancora Gallery (New York).
Expanding the ADAA’s reach across multiple regions, these 12 exceptional galleries— representing one of the most geographically diverse new member cohorts to date—join the ranks of over 200 member galleries spanning nearly 40 cities. Each new member dealer reflects the ADAA’s dedication to promoting the highest standards of connoisseurship, scholarship, and ethical practice within the fine arts, as admission follows a rigorous evaluation of their programmatic and business history, ensuring that every new member exemplifies the best of the U.S. art market. In turn, the ADAA supports these institutions with vital resources to navigate the evolving art market via technological, business, and legal guidance.
ADAA Executive Director, Kinsey Robb comments: “We are thrilled to welcome this year’s cohort of new members, each of whom is renowned for their exhibition programs and dedication to community, innovation, and scholarship. As we expand our membership with distinguished industry leaders, we are fortifying the ADAA’s collective expertise and broadening our network of knowledge. These new collaborations will empower us to tackle emerging challenges together and contribute to the long-term health of the U.S. art sector. We are eager to engage with the unique insights and perspectives our new members bring and to work collectively toward creating meaningful impact and fostering growth in support of an industry we are all deeply committed to.”
After being nominated by an existing member, each candidate undergoes an extensive application and vetting procedure to ensure alignment with the ADAA’s commitment to industry best practices. To be admitted, candidates must demonstrate a record of accomplishment, and have made significant contributions to the art community. Following a vote by the full membership, candidates are admitted pending final approval from the ADAA’s Board.
Goya Contemporary Gallery says: “We are thrilled to share this exciting news with our community and colleagues! This marks a significant milestone in our history and is a testament to the excellence of the artists we proudly represent. We are deeply honored to be the only gallery in Maryland to receive this prestigious recognition. Our heartfelt thanks go to the talented artists we work with, our dedicated team, and our loyal supporters, including our colleagues, devotees, and collectors. We are excited to celebrate this momentous achievement alongside the twelve other galleries from across the country who have been inducted this year, and who uphold the highest ethical standards that we also uphold. Thank you for being part of this remarkable journey!”
“What makes ADAA membership truly special is the opportunity to connect with and be supported by a network of remarkable peers. Admission is confirmed by all member galleries, making this process one by which we come together to assess the state of the field,” says Cristin Tierney, ADAA Membership Committee Chair. “These new members represent artists that exemplify the pinnacle of historic, post-war, contemporary, and emerging art from across the world. We are excited to welcome them and eagerly anticipate what is to come.”
ADAA Board President, Susan Sheehan adds: “This new member class represents a remarkable depth of expertise, influencing both regional and global art conversations while cultivating meaningful connections among artists, collectors, and communities. We’re thrilled to see our membership grow and to collaborate with these influential voices, who are among the leading forces in the market.”
