Big Art Weekend, Super Big

Heif wrote in wanting to know whether it was worth it to check out The Armory Show. I say: Sure! Why not? Over at the New York Times, Holland Carter agrees, saying “Now people are making things you can buy and sell and put on the wall of your loft. Art you can live with, for heaven’s sake.” Which I love to hear, considering that “live with art – it’s good for you” has been my gallery‘s tagline since I opened a couple of years ago.

Also happening in art-land this weekend:

The -scopeNewYork fair @ Flatotel (135 West 52nd St.)

Find out who all the cool kids are at The Greater New York Show opening at PS1 on Sunday from noon – 6pm. ($5 donation requested.)

Check out Basquiat at the Brooklyn Museum. (Roberta says it’s swell in today’s New York Times.)

And don’t forget to get your hipster self over to Williamsburg for After Hours on Saturday night – all the participating galleries are open til 11pm.

Last, but not least, it’s your last chance to see the current exhibition at my gallery, Young, Willing + Hungry, a show of photo-based work curated by Andres Serrano closes tomorrow. Gallery hours are noon-6pm. Come on by and say hello!
