Shadow Art Fair

After the roaring success of Ypsilanti's first Shadow Art Fair back in the summer, we're at it again, this time on the 1st and 2nd December, with even more local artists involved and live entertainment on the Friday night. Drinking tasty beer while shopping for art - it doesn't get much better than that.
I'll be there again selling my pinhole prints and homemade paintcan pinhole cameras. Come along and say hi!

Come Together: The Art Fair and the Biennale
Image by burtonwood + holmes
The Art Fair and the Biennale have grown to become arguably the two most significant mechanisms of the international art market for the dissemination and distribution of art works across national and cultural boundaries. This course will analyze and discuss the trajectory of the art fair and the biennale taking into account historical precedents, cultural contexts, economic factors and the players who have dominated these arenas. Topics covered will include globalization, Art Basel, soft power diplomacy, national pride, cultural rehabilitation, Art Chicago, urban regeneration, temporal zones of art activity, the curator as rock star, funding the arts, Sub prime meltdown, the Miami factor, and more.
