The Amateur Blogspot: Armory Day 3
Along with the Armory, and the pier (don’t get me started again), there are numerous other venues during Armory week where galleries, artists, museums etc. provide exhibitions and purchasing opportunities to an art starved public. Christie’s, Sotheby’s and Phillips all hold their contemporary auctions during Armory Week. The Independent Art Show is in Chelsea on West 22nd Street, there is a video art fair at the Waterfront New York Tunnel (a very cool space in a gallery/mall setting), Volta on Mercer Street, and god knows what else.

Congratulations, oh ‘laconic magus’
By Wendy We just had to share this lovely review in The New Yorker of artist William Cordova’s show at Sikkema Jenkins in New York: Do not miss this. The Peruvian-born Cordova is a laconic magus of metaphysical intimations in a blizzard of rough subjects, such as street gangs and [...]
