Scottsdale Art Week , March 19-22, 2026 aspires to be the Art Basel fo the West.


The Scottsdale Art Week  March 19-22, 2026, appears to be an ambitious, and well promoted event. I applaud the efforts promoters  towards a world class event. It appears the collection of galleries are worthy of those traveling to attend the developing marketplace. It will be interesting to see how the areas traditional venues or cultural inclusion of indigenous tribal may include a  growing Native American  fine art artists .Like Coeur D'alene Idaho, or Santa Fe, which which are other rapidly growing US luxury markets the opportunity is there to incorporate traditional western art with cutting edge contemporary regional art . As glean from the the press material, and article below: the collection of galleries listed for Art Week at Scottsdale is an amagation of a diverse contemporary market. Well presented first class collectable works are listed below for sale. My opinion  Scottsdale Art Week is worth the visit to experience the energy of a new luxury market place emerging. Jamie Forbes, Publisher, SunStorm Fine Art Magazine, and the Fineartmagazineblog,blogspot. Have a great day filled with creativity. 

"Scottsdale Aims to Become the Art Basel of the Southwest"--Phoenix Business Journal

We are so pleased with all the wonderful media coverage Scottsdale Art Weekpresented by Scottsdale Ferrari has been receiving as we build up for the second edition of the fair. This article from the Phoenix Business Journal is something that we wanted to share with all of you as supporters and participants in Scottsdale Art Week as it discusses many of the elements of the fair that we find to be important and we are eager to have you read about it all. 


The article you see below ran in full in the print and digital editions of the Phoenix Business Journal on February 24, 2026. Wonderfully written by Mignon A. Gould, this is what the Journal had to say about Scottsdale Art Week presented by Scottsdale Ferrari. 



Scottsdale Art Week is back for a second year at Westworld of Scottsdale

Phoenix Business Journal February 24, 20206



The four-day international event from March 19-22 will include more than 120 galleries from 18 countries. Twenty-plus local galleries will partake in the event across multiple cities: Scottsdale, Phoenix, Tucson, Tempe, Sedona and Tubac. Other galleries come from states such as California, Colorado, Florida, New Mexico and New York. Argentina, China, England, France and Turkey are among the several other countries where galleries are located.


Co-founder Jason Rose likens the event to the world-renowned Art Basel, which he says is the inspiration and aspiration for Scottsdale Art Week.


“We are the biggest New American art fair in decades,” Rose said. “We would like to think about ourselves as the Art Basel of the American Southwest.”

Works of art will include pieces from notable artists such as Pablo Picasso, Andy Warhol, Salvador Dali, Marc Chagall, David Hockney, Alex Katz, Robert Rauschenberg, Cy Twonbly, Yayoi Kusama and Julia Opie, among others.


The art periods and genres run the gamut from historically significant blue-chip pieces and contemporary mixed-media installations to Indigenous and Western art. All of the art will be available for direct sale.


While galleries are not revealing sale prices, serial entrepreneur Rose — the owner of Rose & Allyn Public Relations and the Bentley Scottsdale Polo Championships — said the individual pieces of art on hand are expected to sell from $3,000 into the millions. Some museum-caliber pieces could go for as much as the high six to low seven figures, he told the Business Journal.


Among those in the seven-figure range are a sculpture and a fossil.


The sculpture called “Triumph” is from Gino Miles, who started the piece during the Covid-19 pandemic and worked on it for several years. The crocodile fossil, titled “Max,” is a 9-foot, 50 million-year-old relic from Green River Fossil Company. The prehistoric piece is priced at $1.2 million.


Building a world-class art fair


The event was co-founded by Rose and Trey Brennen, the owner of T.H. Brennen Fine Art Gallery in Old Town Scottsdale. The entrepreneurs assembled a group of local business leaders as its co-owners including Amy Gause, a former publisher who serves as the event’s director; Mark Candelaria, an architect; John Corritore, a commercial real estate broker; Emilie Dietrich, owner of Raymar, a national art canvas company; Brett Wilson, the publisher of Phoenix Magazine; and Cities Events, the publisher of Phoenix Magazine and Phoenix Home and Garden.

Rose credits co-founder Brennen, an avid art fair attendee, for launching the event and securing Westworld, where the annual Barrett-Jackson car auction is held.


"He called me out of the blue one day and said, 'Hey, I'm aware of your promotional abilities and what you do with the Bentley Polo Championships and your musical productions. I'm thinking of doing a big art fair in the market. What do you think?'" Rose explained. "I said, 'Well, we've never met, but I love Art Basel, and I love Frieze.'"


From there, a partnership was born, and so was Scottsdale Art Week.


During Scottsdale Art Week's first year, Rose estimates the event pulled in seven- to eight-figures sales overall, though he declined to give exact numbers. The inaugural event featured 106 galleries and generated seven-figure sales. Some galleries even sold out.


For the future, Rose said he plans to expand the event to more days and make an economic impact on the state.


"Particularly exciting is the ecosystem around it — how restaurants, bars, hotels use it to advance their own business interests," he said.


An example of this is how Scottsdale Art Week sponsor Scottsdale Ferrari ist hrowing a party March 20 on top of the new Optima at the 101 and Scottsdale Road, Rose said. De Sarthe Gallery is also having an afterparty with an arts publication on March 21.


Additionally, the event will kick off with an opening night vernissage.The private viewing, which will benefit Phoenix Art Museum, will give attendees an opportunity to acquire works ahead of the public opening. There will also be an awards presentation, live music by Lunar Calendar and a wearable art runway show by Galina Mihaleva from FIDM at Arizona State University.

ArtNexus will be offering attendees a one-hour overview of the show with expert insights to create premium experience, as well as enhanced engagement with the artworks and exhibitors. Each tour is led by qualified art professionals who will provide informed and thoughtful commentary to enhance the overall fair experience. 


ArtNexus organizes official guided tour programs for major international art fairs, including Art Basel (Basel and Miami Beach) and The Armory Show (New York), ArtBo (International Art Fair of Bogotá), and ZONA MACO (A leading art fair for contemporary art in Mexico City).
