Karen Jones

Founded in 2012, Untitled Art is a leading contemporary art fair taking place annually on the sands of Miami Beach and in downtown Houston. Guided by a mission to support the wider art ecosystem, Untitled Art offers an inclusive platform for discovering contemporary art that prioritizes collaboration within each aspect of the fair.

As we look ahead to the second edition of Untitled Art, Houston, visitors to the fair can expect to encounter a dynamic mix of returning galleries presenting new artists, focused solo presentations, and fresh conversations across generations and practices.

Building on their participation in the fair’s inaugural edition, these returning exhibitors offer a glimpse into the range of perspectives and approaches that will shape this year’s fair and continue to grow the connections between the international art community and Houston for years to come.

Each year, new and long-standing exhibitors are selected by Untitled Art’s evolving curatorial team for their artistic integrity and international reach, with several galleries based outside of mainstream art hubs. Emerging artists, young galleries, and non-profit organizations are supported through its ‘Nest’ sector, an initiative offering subsidized booths developed in response to traditional entry barriers posed by art fair participation. The first to launch an online art fair, Untitled Art continually invests in new technologies to make contemporary art collecting more accessible to new audiences, and it proactively advances responsible culture by using its platform to amplify diverse voices.

Through critical and educational programming, from a robust on-site podcast series focusing on relevant industry topics and artist talks to events and community activations outside of the fair itself, Untitled Art attracts contemporary art collectors, art professionals, curators, art historians, and critics, among other enthusiasts. It also celebrates the context in which the fairs are held by promoting leading galleries from Miami and Houston, as well as engaging with local institutions. To reduce its environmental impact, Untitled Art has joined the Gallery Climate Collation and works closely with the City of Miami Beach and the City of Houston to ensure zero environmental impact. Untitled Edit, commissioned essays intended to spark debate and dialogue, also continues to further the critical advancement of art criticism while cultivating the next generation of writers.
