My work will be shown in the Nevin Kelly Gallery booth at the Affordable Art Fair 2009 in New York next week, Thursday through Sunday May 7 – 10. There’s a “private preview” on Wednesday evening May 6 from 6 – 9 pm (private meaning you pay $45 for a premium ticket and first dibs at the art) and an “opening night” reception” on Thursday evening, also 6 – 9 pm, which means you get a cash bar.
“Affordable” officially means $100 - $10,000, but judging by last year, you will see much more work at the truly affordable end of that scale, a lot of work on paper and quite a bit of interesting stuff that you might actually be able to take home and love.
The fair is in a new location, 7 West New York at 7 West 34th Street, which is easily accessible by subway. There are over 60 galleries participating, a good percentage from overseas. In addition to Nevin Kelly, DC will also be represented by the Fraser Gallery. The fair website is www.aafnyc.com, which you should check for hours, etc.
Nevin is taking work from 7 artists: Sondra Arkin, Molly Brose, Mary Chiaramonte, Anna U. Davis, Laurel Hausler, Wesley Wheeler and me, Ellyn Weiss. I will be sending mostly monoprints, some totally white-on-white “prints without ink” and four little encaustics. I’ve reproduced several of the pieces here that will be in New York.
