Highlighting the Work of Women Artists, LGBTQ Artists, and Artists of Color, Superfine Will Take Over The Magic Box Downtown For Four Days In October
The contemporary art fair highlighting the work of women artists, LGBTQ+ artists, and artists of color is returning to Los Angeles this month. Coined the ‘worlds most inclusive art fair,’ Superfine will take over the Magic Box Downtown October 13- 16th, featuring more than 80 handpicked artists
In addition to inclusivity, Superfine also prides itself on accessible pricing. With most of the art falling into the $75-$2500 price range, and no commission taken from the artists, Superfine has generated over $10 million in sales on behalf of independent artists at annual fairs in cities across the U.S. since launching at Art Basel in 2015.
Superfine founders ALEX MITOW & JAMES MIILLE set out to change people’s perception of the world by forgoing the stuffiness found at most fairs. “When we looked at the art world as gay men in our 20s and 30s, we felt excluded. We built Superfine to be a welcoming space where people who love art could collect it without the ‘red velvet rope’ vibes they’re used to,” adds Mitow.

I like the “red velvet rope” and good art done by artists of all colors. Yep, I’m a young gay man too. Who woulda thunk it?
good grief
One may call their faire anything they want but it doesn’t make it a true statement. Having worked in the world of fine arts and architecture for more than 25 years it seems this team has an extremely narrow interpretation.
Very well said. And you’re 100% correct. Whenever I see the word “inclusive” nowadays, especially in WeHo, I always suspect it means the opposite. And unfortunately, too many times, that’s the case.
