When you go to Art-Paris you can shoot everything in sight. It's a huge art fair format of international galleries displaying contemporary works set in the Grand Palais. A gorgeously sunny day, so though you're inside, it feels like you're outside. Normally inside a Parisien galerie if you pull out a camera, they pull out a gun.Here you have carte blanche.
An art stalker's dream.

I was intrigued by different gallery setups in each space - this one is extremement minimal. Not so crazy for this gigantic upsided bug.
Sandwiche - check
Coke - check
Le Monde - check
Artsy Eames chair - check

Bear along for the ride, announced he was getting ras le bol,
He sat in the leopard cacoon-thing and he did.They could care less.

ReplyDeleteThis looks like such a fun day! I love stuff like this :-) Well...maybe not the upside down bug or the other scary pics, but a sunny hall with lots of art & maybe a cute Frenchman to stalk...sign me up.

ReplyDeleteI know you have wandered the aisles of Art Expo, at the Javits Center.
Compared to those expos, which always seem so overly crowded with
"Art Stuff," this Expo seems so airy, open, and inviting.
Thanks for the aesthetic adventure.

I don't know.....the place is so spacious it seems overwhelming...just me I guess.
ReplyDeleteThe opening shot sure gets your attention, ahem......
Absolutely amazing stroll, the light, the people, the art...nothing like it in the world...even from an armchair, I can tell that!
ReplyDeleteI just started reading your blog and posts - you are fabulous!
