Salon Zürcher, a small fair organized by and held at Zürcher Gallery in Manhattan’s East Village, presents itself as an intimate alternative to large-scale, superstore-style art fairs. Inspired by artistic salons, it offers its visitors the opportunity to mingle among the artists and engage in direct discussions with them. For its 25th edition, the fair will present the fourth edition of a group show of 11 women artists titled Women of Spirit. The exhibition takes its title from the 18th-century French term “femmes d’esprit,” referring to independently-minded female painters, writers, and intellectuals who were routinely overlooked by the male-dominated art scene of their time. Hailing mostly from the United States and France, the 11 participating artists are Rosaire Appel, Jeri Coppola, Brigitte Engler, Laurel Marx, Donna Moylan, Fran O’Neill, Janet Passeh, Marcy Rosenblat, Fran Shalom, Jackie Shatz, and Rebecca Smith.
