PULSE New York Contemporary Art Fair 2015

PULSE New York Contemporary Art Fair 2015

Celebrating its 10th anniversary, PULSE Contemporary Art Fair returns for its New York edition from March 5 – 8, 2015 at the Metropolitan Pavilion in Chelsea. PULSE New York will continue the momentum established during its successful Miami Beach edition, which realized major sales and acclaim at the fair’s airy new mid-Miami Beach location. PULSE New York will present a tightly-curated selection of exhibitors showing work by more than 100 international artists, over 80% of exhibitors at the fair will present three artists or less, and a third will showcase two artists in conversation. As one of the longest-running contemporary art fairs in New York, PULSE offers visitors a welcoming environment in which to explore and discover the most compelling contemporary art produced today.

“We look forward to returning to March and introducing visitors to our select group of exhibitors and artists,” says Director Helen Toomer, “PULSE is an environment that encourages interaction and we take pride in showcasing a microcosm of the contemporary art market in which artists can be discovered, acquired and supported.”

PLAY, the fair’s showcase for video and new media, will be curated by Billy Zhao, a dynamic young curator from the Marina Ambramovic Institute (MAI). PERSPECTIVES is the fair’s series of in-depth conversations between prominent art world insiders, exploring ideas within contemporary art and the art market. On Saturday, March 7 the fair will host 10 x 10, a special curator-focused roundtable, featuring ten curators who will each have ten minutes to answer questions related to “The Future”, which is the overarching theme of this New York edition.

PROJECTS will feature a large site-specific entryway installation by Rachel Mica Weiss presented by Uprise Art, monumental sculptures by Aaron Stephans and Lauren Fensterstock presented by Sienna Patti, paintings by emerging London-based artist Danny Rolph presented by 523 Gallery Thomas Jaeckel, and a video sculpture by Jonathan Calm, presented by LMAKprojects. Carla Gannis will exhibit a large-scale digital print courtesy of TRANSFER.
