Grace Exhibition Space will be presenting a very important, new performance artist at the Fountain Art Fair.

There are obstacle to presenting Performance Art within an art fair - we want to draw attention to the performance, while not distracting from the gallery booths

It's a challenge we are prepared to meet, and we will be presenting you with an artist whose work is captivating, raw and new.

In the spiritt of the Fountain Art Fair

Fountain has tripled its venue size by moving to the historic 69th Armory, yet remains true to its progressive roots by hosting not one but now two events during Armory week in New York.

Contemporary art gurus Artlog will kick off an unforgettable celebration at Fountain’s Public Opening Night Reception, Friday March 9 from 7-11pm, guest DJ’d by New York legend Fab 5 Freddy. On Saturday visitors will now have four extra hours to soak up Fountain’s art-fueled frenzy, as Fountain has extended its hours until 11pm for an exciting Saturday night event curated by our nonprofit partner Art for Progress.

Fountain is dedicated to supporting smaller independent galleries and artists will present an outstanding roster of participants including veterans The Marketplace Gallery, Microscope Gallery, and Marni Kotak as well as an impressive lineup of new exhibitors, among them Big Deal Arts and Albany Center Gallery.

Exhibitor space at the fair has been booked in record time, however a few booths remain. Prospective exhibitors can submit applications for Fountain New York 2012 by clicking here; the deadline to apply is February 14th.
