If you corresponded with me yesterday, you already know my disdain for April Fools’ Day. Pranks are fun but incessant fake news stories is enervating: thank you to those who listened to me air grievances.
My digression brings me to an inspiring newsletter - two issues in one week! There were too many art works in my inbox and from gallery hopping to not share with my subscribers. Even now Substack demands I curtail my inclusions so there will likely be another newsletter in everyone’s near future.
Several works below will be featured at the art fairs in Dallas next week. It will be my first time attending the fairs AND my first time in Dallas! Please send comprehensive recommendation lists and google doc itineraries (unless your initials are AR), and of course please let me know if you will also be at the fairs.
There are still individual tickets available for this Monday’s Bronx Museum Annual Gala + Art Auction, and you can also just buy a $150 after party ticket here where Grammy-nominated artist Amber Mark will be giving a special live performance! I hope you can join me next week!
