Spring Break Art Fair
Genevieve Gaignard
Gallery Shula Mitnazarian LA
Best gallery exhibit of the show. We bought art! Genevieve who uses herself as a canvass in her photographs exudes extreme confidence and poise. Love it. She may be the next Cindy Sherman. Watch out.
Volta Art Fair
Pier 90 NYC
This is one of the better art fairs in March. It features one artist per booth, which helps you see the range and quality of an artist’s expression. It really helps you see the possibilities of the artists’ work. Love this show!
Armory Show 2016
Part 3 of 3
Pier 94 NYC
Great show this year, not a lot of repeated artists or artwork. Seeing new stuff everywhere. The quality is insane and the ideas are genius. I think this is one of the best years at the armory. It doesn’t seem like a lot of stuff is selling, but hard to tell. This is the best of the best.

Taryn Simon
PAPERWORK AND THE WILL OF CAPITAL
Gagosian on 24th has an exhibit of the recent works of Taryn Simon, who has reduced the high tension political meetings of dignitaries down to the florist who arranged the bouquet that sat at the meeting. She strips away the context revealing the flowers that were designed for the event. One visual had no flowers, how sad. Also included in the show are flower pressings of the type of flowers presented at these events. Framing is awesome. Check it out through March 26, 2016
RIME Solo Show
Conclusions
Great Show at Jonathan Levine tonight. Dabs and Myla was there, Dirt Worship and Vandalog were there with Jersey Joe and Giz. Allstar Night. Great Art for his first solo show at Jonathan Levine. Oh Yea we bought art! So fun. Check it out through 3-19-16.
Space is the Place—Great show at Joshua Liner Gallery featuring oil on linen by Michael Kagan which showcases man’s moments of triumph over nature’s limits captured through iconic imagery as seen to the left. Also noteworthy is a cool show by Aïda Ruilova at Marlborough Chelsea featuring a 25-foot wide projection of a digitally transferred Super-16mm film, a large-scale inflatable, and a group of cut-paper collages. Cool night, check it out!
Mike Weiss Gallery
Group Show
Objects and Everyday Goods
Cool group show highlighting one of my favorite artists of the moment, the flat, yet 3D wooden artwork of Michael Zelehoski. THe work is so flat, and so impossible and so tactile. Check it out through March 26, 2016. Also check out Liao Yibai, massive bicycle chain in the back center gallery.
Claudette Schreuders
Note to Self
Jack Shainman Gallery
Cool show of carved busts that are autobiographical and curious in their squatness. In the back room the artist is surrounded by her influencers, busts of family and people who inspire her. Very personal show and a very unique voice. Check it out through March 12, 2016
