I’ll have work at CONTEXT: Art Miami in the Art in Public Spaces Program. I’ll be exhibiting 35 of my small artworks in a stand alone exhibition. You will be able to find my work at space SP10. This will be my largest presentation of these works ever (35 paintings) attached is one of the proposal images for the installation.

Interesting Info-Graphic and Data on Art Fairs

Published November 10, 2015

According to this article (and info-graphic) at ArtNews:

Recently The New York Times cited Skate’s Art Market Research in an article on the slowdown in the growth of art fairs worldwide. In an analysis of attendance figures, Skate’s found “that 1,032,792 people attended the world’s top 20 art fairs in 2014, a 7.4 percent decline from the previous year,” The Times reported. Despite the dip, art fair attendance is impressive, given that only a handful of these events have existed for more than a decade.

What I find interesting is that many people will go to more than one fair – especially the ABMB / Art Miami numbers are curious. I’m assuming there is a ton of overlap between those two. However, with fair attendance decreasing but sales increasing (or at least sales numbers increasing) I think we are a long way off from seeing the art market change it’s current stance on the necessity of fairs overall.

Walmart in Art Fairs Out in Wynnwood

Walmart in Art Fairs Out in Wynnwood

Published February 7, 2012

The Miami Herald is reporting that a newly planned Walmart would force relocation of at least three art fairs. Scope, Red Dot and Art Asia are currently on land that Walmart is planning to build a new location in Wynnwood.

All is fine for the 2012 versions of the fairs, however after this upcoming season they will be looking for a new home.

I think this might also force a few other fairs to think or re-think current locations as well. I could see Art Miami try to find a location near the other three fairs or even try to find a place closer to the Ice Palace where Pulse is now (it previously housed the NADA fair). While Seven would not necessarily be affected by this, I could see them looking at a new location to be able to make things a bit easier for people visiting the fairs. Seven’s location has been well served by the shuttles that ran from Art Miami, Scope, Art Asia and Red Dot.

Gerhard Richter Painting at ABMB

Gerhard Richter Painting at ABMB

Published December 9, 2011

While in Miami last week I was able to attend the US premier of the new documentary “Gerhard Richter Painting” by Corinna Belz. Ms. Belz has put together a taught and quiet movie that among many things captures the essence of working in the studio. It is this quality – a personal view about Richter and a universal vision of what the works is – that make this film so interesting to me.

The film starts in the studio without holding your hand and spending time telling back stories about who and what – instead it goes right to work. Eventually the story starts to allow the outside world in – but only when it is relevant to the matter at hand. I was constantly aware of how much, or should I say how little Ms. Belz allowed the outside world to inject itself into the film – and found myself enjoying it all the more.

Gerhard Richter Painting opens sometime this spring.
