Once again Art Expo New York exceeded expectations of quality and quantity. The massive art show took place on Pier 36 downtown last weekend. Inside the cavernous space there were hundreds of mini galleries featuring recent works by one or more artists. As always, the show provided an opportunity to meet many of the artists and to learn about their creative process.
“The annual fine art destination, now in its 47th year, will host more than 200 innovative exhibiting galleries, art publishers and dealers, and artists from across the globe across 70,000 square feet of uninterrupted convention space, showcasing original work of 1000+ artists that includes prints, paintings, drawings, sculptures, photography, ceramics, giclee, lithographs and glass works, among other contemporary and fine art. This year’s program features an extensive series of daily activities for attendees, that includes the Spotlight Program, a focused look at several cutting-edge galleries and artists chosen by the Redwood Art Group selection committee; Art Labs, a series of outstanding projects by leading galleries, art institutions, and art collectives within the fair; Meet The Artists and Live Demonstrations, presenting an interactive experience—allowing attendees to get up-close-and-personal with the artists; and Discoveries Collection – selections of artwork chosen by the Artexpo New York curatorial team that make up a group of amazing discoveries throughout the fair, each priced at $1,000 and $3,000 or less.
“‘We’re delighted to announce our new programming schedule for this year’s Artexpo New York,’ says Eric Smith, President and CEO of Redwood Media Group. ‘This year’s fair will see an attendance by some of the most prominent leaders in the industry, from established and emerging artists to fine art photographers, gallery collectives, art dealers, publishers, collectors and consultants. This year’s lineup of exhibitors is our most eclectic selection to-date, whether you’re new to the market or a seasoned professional interested in discovering the latest trends—Artexpo New York will appeal to every art lover.'” ~Redwood Art Group
