“Farfetch has been a longtime admirer of House of Voltaire for all that they do to support international artists at key points in their careers,” said Farfetch CMO Stephanie Horton. We are so happy to be a part of this special journey and to spread the word of their work and bring unique designer and artist collaborations to our global audience.”

Each December in Miami, NADA runs a renowned art fair to vigorously pursue their goals of exploring new or underexposed art that is not typical of the “art establishment.” NADA’s fair is held in parallel with Art Basel Miami Beach and is recognized as a much needed alternative assembly of the world’s youngest and strongest art galleries dealing with emerging Contemporary Art. It is the only major American art fair to be run by a non-profit organization.
