Selections @MovingImageInfo for Young Patrons
On Saturday (tomorrow) I have the privilege of introducing young collectors and patrons to the exciting and diverse segment of contemporary art that features moving images. Members of the Guggenheim Museum Young Collectors Council, Metropolitan Museum of Art Apollo Circle, Morgan Library Young Fellows and the Performa Visionaries have been invited to join me on a walk-through of the Fair that will highlight both artists and the adventurous art dealers who are supporting the most advanced experimental work today (see, e.g., Postmasters Gallery's “The Shortest Video Art Ever Sold” #SVAES).
It's a nearly impossible task, but somehow I have picked a few works that can be discussed in a 45 minute private tour. Here is a closeup of a few on view at Artsy and an interview with the artist behind the Fair's signature image: Mihai Grecu speaking about his 2008 video Coagulate.
