SCOPE NY @ Lincoln Center


Here are some highlights from SCOPE NY Art Fair.



Corey Arnold
The Wave (Bering Sea, Alaska)
Chromira C-Print 2003

This photograph is my favorite of all the Art Fairs combined. Corey Arnold photographs are mostly taken while working in a fishing boat at sea. Considered one of the most dangerous jobs, the photos are quite stunning, full of energy and edgy. keep an eye on him. Sara Tecchia of Sara Tecchia Gallery and Risa Needleman epitomized what costumer service and pleasant gallery atmosphere should be . Their gallery booth rocked more than a boat at sea in so many ways. See link below and pay them a visit!


Carlos Betancourt -The Hedge 2007
Giclee print
Keep a close eye on this Puerto Rican artist. During Miami Art Basel 2007 he had a great installation on display.His photos are insanely delicious and extremely colorful in every meaning of the word. See the link below and for more of this fiesta art!




Judith Larsen
Ocula-2007, Iris print on Somerset velvet paper
63'' x 73 ''
At the RHYS Gallery booth we found the work of Judith Larsen quite mesmerizing. See link below for more info.






Bahk Seon Ghi
Point of View Table, 2007
At Regis Krampf booth this installation was just brilliant! It was made mostly with chunks of coal and fishing wire . The shadows effects and space created within was worth seeing.
See link below for more artist and gallery info.

  3. Judith Larsen's zebra woman was mesmerizing! How is it that you instinctively gravitate toward everything I like and manage to post it on the site?? Perhaps that's because you are totally FABULOUS!

Be nice, be proactive, be positive and yes you can be a bit naughty. Negativity, tackiness and insecurity will get you nowhere in the ART World!
