NY Studio Gallery continues it's 4th Annual International ARTcamp: Studio Residency Program.
For two months the gallery is transformed into studio space for
six national and international artists. The work ranges from
installation and performance to video, drawing and sculpture with a
tendency toward the figural, physical and interactive. Gallery hours (Thursday – Saturday noon – 6pm and by appointment) continue to be in effect during ARTcamp, allowing
visitors to see work in progress, and to meet and learn about the
artists’ work and process first hand.
NYTimes' Steven McElroy has some tips for all of us preparing to delve in to this year's New York International Fringe Festival, which runs through August 30th at numerous theaters throughout the city. He writes:
which starts Friday, runs more than 60 pages. So to choose from about
200 productions you must look at some specifics: Are your friends
involved? Is the director a hotshot? The company noteworthy? Any actors
of special interest? The premise too odd to pass up? This last
criterion can sometimes lead to buyer’s remorse, but the tickets are
cheap and choosing Fringe shows should always involve some
impulsiveness.
Come by and see us for the closing reception for ARTcamp August 28 7-9pm
I put it on our calendar! Maybe we can interview the artists beforehand?
