ART FAIRS Art fairs are happening around the country as international exhibitions of contemporary art. One of the most famous is Art Basal in Miamiwhere but New York hosts Frieze Art Fair, PULSE, NADA New York, and The Amory Show, Chicago has EXPO CHICAGO, and San Francisco hosts artMRKT San Francisco. Internationally, these festivals take place in Edinburgh, Ibizia (Art Ibiza), London (London Original Print and Frieze London), Berlin (Art Berlin Contemporary), Madrid (ARCO Madrid), Hong Kong (Art Central), and Buenos Aires (Art BA) to name a few. If hopping on a plane to Ibizia doesn’t work with exams, artsy.net has art fairs, museum, and gallery previews available online. Websites like artnet. com and artnews.com are host to a wide range of global art news to stay current on events, the market, exhibitions, artists, collectors, and reviews. Finding new art and curating personal preference is now embedded into the activities and events frequented by this generation. A little exploration and an open mind will open up the art world on your smart phone.
