The New Art Dealers Alliance (NADA) is pleased to open a new, year-round project space as an extension of NADA’s fairs and exhibition programs. The size of a small art fair booth—approximately ten by ten feet—the exhibition space is located at in the East Broadway Mall in Chinatown, New York.

The inaugural exhibition, Light Show, features eight artists presenting light-based sculpture objects.

Taking inspiration from the numerous lighting stores that have lined the Bowery, the exhibition calls attention to the intersection between galleries and the small businesses which are an invaluable resource to the neighborhood. Through this alignment with small businesses, and stemming from our efforts in 2020 to support rent relief for galleries impacted by the pandemic, NADA aims to build a stronger alliance with other businesses and bring more awareness to the shared interest in a commercial rent stabilization bill.

Following this inaugural exhibition, the space will be host to presentations from NADA’s global community of galleries, non-profit arts organization, and artist-run spaces.
