黑料不打烊

Fountain New York, the alternative art exhibition known for presenting cutting-edge and independent art galleries, sets up shop at Pier 66 for its latest installment during the Armory this March 5 - 8. Fountain is a guerrilla-style art event, dubbed by many as the 鈥淎nti Art Fair鈥� for its brash, off-the-wall offerings of non-traditional art exhibitions in the art fair environment. Recruiting avant-garde galleries who showcase progressive primary-market works, Fountain returns for its 3rd year in New York, giving gallery-goers and art enthusiasts the opportunity to see new works without traditional booths or selection juries. While most fairs have fallen into the hands of corporate management, Fountain remains independent, and as such presents work in a forward-thinking manner. Unencumbered by the strict presentation guidelines and parameters found at other fairs, Fountain preserves the visions of galleries and dealers to provide an environment reflective of the artists and their works. Fountain鈥檚 venue, Pier 66 a 12,000 square-foot complex with both interior and exterior exhibition areas, is adjacent to all the major New York exhibitions. Participating galleries receive approximately 500 square feet of exhibition space, so visitors can expect massive installations of contemporary painting, sculpture, performance and new media art.
