The Art F City Survival Guide to the 2016 Armory Week Fairs

Do you like art fairs? If yes, you are in luck! If not, get the hell out of New York City this week. Art fairs are multiplying like Gremlins, and mutating as they spawn. We now have specific art fairs for everything: paper, video art, solo projects, Asian art, curator-driven booths, independent artists, dykes, shiny things, boring shows… there’s something for everyone.

Thursday Links: Choose Another Art Star

by Paddy Johnson and Corinna Kirsch on May 29, 2014

Just an old-fashioned staring contest.

Artists are so selfish they won’t heed anyone’s advice. This, according to the Onion. [The Onion]
This isn’t new, but there’s a White House Biennial? [White House Biennial via Andreas Templin]
In “I Read Bigfoot Erotica for Research,” writer Robin Hardwick goes where so few would want to go, or bother to go…to the topic of Sasquatch rape. [The Toast]
One, two times a book! Slate music critic Carl Wilson’s much-loved book on Celine Dion and kitsch has been given a second printing. This time around, it includes some new essays by the fellows over at n + 1, Owen Pallett, and for some reason, James Franco. [Bloomsbury]
David Joselit is complaining about Hans Ulrich Obrist’s scholarship. (It’s about time someone did.) Ulrich Obrist has organized an exhibition with art star Marina Abramović at London’s Serpentine Gallery exploring the subject of “nothing” but has not offered up a lineage of artists who have explored this topic. Specifically, Joselit thinks the work of Mary Ellen Carroll, a New York-based conceptual artist, should be credited, as she’s been working on the subject of “nothing” since the 90’s. [The Guardian]
Mark your calendars, there’s a new art fair around. Moving Image, currently held in London and New York, will be expanding to Istanbul this fall. According to fair co-founder Ed Winkleman, the Istanbul edition might mark the first of many roving fairs to come. [The Art Newspaper]
The 9/11 Museum removes a “never forget” cheese plate from their gift store after it was described as the tasteless item in the store. What makes this piece more distasteful than the twin tower Christmas ornaments or any other item in the store was never explained. What’s the big deal here people? The Holocaust Museum has a gift store too. I bet they sell cheese plates; most of these places do. [Gothamist]
Museum conservators are trying out a new way to conserve paintings: light. If a Rothko, for instance, is damaged, the conservators will shine a light (from a digital projector) on the dull spot so that it matches. [The Atlantic]

Moving Image, the Leisurely Fair, Returns to New York

by Corinna Kirsch on March 7, 2014

Art fairs can seem depressingly uniform, all of them decked out with bright lights, oppressive cubicles, and constant noise of the art-world rabble. So after a week of peeking over heads to view art, visiting Moving Image can seem downright eerie.

The Art F City Guide to This Week’s Art Fairs

by Paddy Johnson on March 3, 2014

It’s fair week, which means you can expect a flurry of posts nominally about art, and largely about who’s selling what. Before anyone gets to that, though, you’ll need to know to where to go to buy your art (or like the rest of us rabble, look at it with awe and wonder). This list will help you get where you’re going.

Moving Image, a Fair With Purpose

by Corinna Kirsch on March 8, 2013

Slowly but surely, galleries are reaching a breaking point with the art fair circuit. Escape isn’t an option for most galleries. Instead of opting out, we’re seeing a rise in specialized fairs, those that provide an alternative to the white-walled booth model. Moving Image is one of those fairs, and it has all the makings of a solid future.
