The Art Fair Company, which produces the Sculpture Objects & Functional Art Fairs and the Art and Antique Dealers League Spring Show NYC, presents The METRO Show, The New Face of Arts & Design, January 24-27, 2013.
Held at the Metropolitan Pavilion in Chelsea, The METRO Show unites historic and contemporary arts and design: paintings, furniture, drawings, prints, photographs, sculpture, folk art, ethnographic, textiles, Native American, and applied and decorative arts. Mainstream and the edge.
“Our vision is to illustrate the intellect, beauty, and vision in American arts and design, while placing it in a more modern and international context,” said Fair Director Caroline Kerrigan Lerch. “We want to broaden its appeal and reach out to a new and younger audience while renewing the interest of the loyal attendees who flock each January to the Metropolitan Pavilion, in the heart of New York’s bustling and vibrant arts community.”
“In each booth, fair visitors will be able to meet an expert in his or her field, eager to share information with an interested public,” said Mark Lyman, President of The Art Fair Company. “The METRO Show builds further on The Art Fair’s reputation for building art fairs that are both an extra-ordinary marketplace and a provocative and educational forum.”
