TAMAF was honored to gather in New York for an intimate, private walkthrough of Taryn Simon: Father Country I Do Love You at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, led by the artist herself.

Experiencing the exhibition with Taryn offered our guests a rare and deeply personal perspective on the years of research, thought, and care behind this extraordinary body of work. The occasion was especially meaningful for TAMAF as we continued to celebrate Taryn in New York after the privilege of exhibiting her work with us in Tel Aviv.

The afternoon reflected what lies at the heart of TAMAF: creating meaningful encounters with artists and sustaining relationships that extend across cities, exhibitions, and time. We are profoundly grateful to Taryn for her generosity and congratulate her on this magnificent exhibition.

TAMAF members enjoyed a special guided tour of Independent 20th Century, marking the fair’s first edition at the iconic Breuer Building in partnership with Sotheby’s.

Together, we explored thoughtfully curated presentations from leading galleries and heard directly about the artists, ideas, and histories behind the works on view. Highlights included presentations of Yves Klein by Lévy Gorvy Dayan, Lucio Fontana by Nahmad Contemporary, Pablo Picasso by John Szoke Gallery, and Sue Fuller by Luxembourg + Co.

The afternoon offered a wonderful opportunity to experience modern art in one of New York’s most celebrated architectural landmarks while connecting with fellow members of the TAMAF community.
