The New Art Dealers Alliance (NADA) is pleased to announce TD Bank Curated Spotlight—a special section at NADA Miami 2025 curated by Kate Wong, curator, writer, and researcher based in Vancouver, British Columbia. For the 23rd edition of the fair, Curated Spotlight will feature five presentations from exhibiting galleries.
This year marks the sixth anniversary of the NADA x TD Bank Curated Spotlight program—a crowd favorite at both Miami and New York fairs. Introduced at NADA Miami in 2021, the Curated Spotlight program invites galleries and artists to collaborate with a curator to showcase their presentations at the fair. Past curators include Jasmine Wahi, Ebony L. Haynes, Kendra Jayne Patrick, Joeonna Belloarado-Samuels, Simon Wu, and Jenée-Daria Strand.
“For this year’s Curated Spotlight, I am highlighting galleries taking nontraditional approaches to supporting artists. These commercial and non-profit spaces are expanding what it means to support artistic practice—expanding beyond exhibition-making and the placement of artworks to offer resources, programming, and community infrastructure,” said Kate Wong.
“Founded in 1948, the EFA Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop (New York) is a cooperative non-profit participating in NADA to diversify its revenue model. ROMANCE (Pittsburgh) began as an apartment gallery and now occupies a former medical office, developing a program that weaves site, history, and artistic intervention. Spill 180 (New York) embeds political solidarity directly into its operations, making ethics a structural and not symbolic part of its activity. Southside Contemporary Art Gallery (Richmond, VA) started in response to community need, offering educational programs alongside exhibitions, and El Consulado (New York) is an artist-run collective that centers Venezuelan culture and community who are thinking creatively about how to resource their exhibitions, residencies, and public programs.
These spaces serve as a reminder of the importance to rethink the logics of scale and to recognize that the most vital work is often rooted in the local. A more ethical form of sustainability within the arts ecosystem emerges through small acts—networks of artists and communities forging new models through proximity, responsiveness, and shared purpose. The artists presented in this section echo this spirit of renewal, reminding us that there is indeed a new world struggling to be born. Their work affirms the role of art in allowing us to imagine otherwise, using the language of rupture—the uneven, the disjointed, and the fractured—to give form to the tension between what is dying and what is yet to come.”
Highlights include Devin N. Morris at EFA Robert Blackburn Printmaking, whose collage works about intimacy and family are made with found materials and animate surrealist environments.
“We’re thrilled to bring Curated Spotlight back to NADA Miami with the continued support of TD Bank,” said NADA Executive Director Heather Hubbs. “As the fair grows, so does this program—offering vital opportunities for artists, curators, and galleries, including many first-time participants. Each year, our goal is to champion diverse perspectives and emerging talent, creating an inclusive space that introduces their work to new audiences.”
The 23rd edition of NADA Miami will take place December 2–6 at Ice Palace Studios. NADA Miami 2025 will showcase a diverse selection of nearly 140 galleries, art spaces, and nonprofit organizations spanning 30 countries and 65 cities including Buenos Aires, Shanghai, Lagos, Honolulu, Caracas, and Pittsburgh. This year’s fair features 58 NADA Members and 47 first-time exhibitors. This edition will also introduce ECOLOGIES, a brand-new series of public programming and performances hosted during the fair, developed in partnership with the Knight Foundation, Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM), and CULTURED.
“TD is proud to support NADA for this special presentation at Miami Art Week, celebrating diverse talent in contemporary art,” said Paige Carlson-Heim, Head of Social Impact at TD Bank. “We understand that emerging voices in art, including both artists and gallerists, are driving the creative economy. The TD Curated Spotlight at Miami Art Week continues to provide professional development opportunities for creatives facing barriers to the arts sector.”
