Spring Break Art Fair

Moynihan Station (Old Post Office Across from Penn Station)

Great show for up and coming artists. So cool to see the insides of this historic post office where each gallery had a space on 2 floors of the post office. I imagine in the day that each massive office was for on person only. Things have changed. I took a lot of pictures which means that I was transfixed. Great to see young artists stretching and reaching.

Scope Art Show

Uneven art show with a range of graffiti artists and creative artists across disciplines. Art is so affordable that you can purchase a creative masterpiece for 2 weeks salary. I think we need a campaing to support artists in the way the diamond industry supports engagement ring purchases. Art is so important and everyone should support the powerful visual artists working today!

Mark Ryden

Dodechahedron

Paul Kasmin Gallery

Amazing show of Mark Ryden’s latest work. Amazing amount of detail to his process from painting on a lift with rollers to manufacturing the frames overseas to exacting specifications. There is no other world like his. Even the Fan Mom and Daughter dressed up and brought their favorite Mark Ryden dolls. It’s a macabre world where innocence and the gruesome comingal in an ethereal world. Check it out through January 23, 2016.

David Mann

Sympathetic Strings

Margret Thatcher Projects

Abstract paintings that have a great deal of layers based on the idea of Sympathetic Strings, or strings that lie below other strings that aren’t plucked but still resonate the sound. Visually powerful and emanatic with a centrifical force.
