Today is the last day of the 2017 Affordable Art Fair in NYC, which has proven to be highly successful... both Matthew Langley and Lori Katz rocked the house with monster sales, while art fair rookie Amy Marx had some decent sales and placed several small works into multiple collections.
On Thursday, there was a perfect example of why art fairs, with their large number of people, make sense. All day long NYC artist Matthew Langley worked the crowd, but nothing had sold. Two minutes before the fair was officially closed for the day, a couple approached his work, and $6500 later, Langley had a decent day!
I had a good fair myself, placing multiple drawings and one video piece (The Batman Brooding in the Batcave) in New York state collections.
Next? SOFA Chicago and then Context Art Miami!
