2010 Armory Show New York March 3, 2010 Frank Didik - News1.net Pier 92 - 52 Street and 12th Avenue, Manhattan March 4 to March 7, 2010. Preview March 3 News1.net New York March 3, 2010 By Frank X. Didik The 12th annual Armory Show, was a remarkable success attracting 289 elite international galleries from around the world, with a heavy emphasis on European and Asian galleries. Selected art ranged from contemporary works made exclusively for the show to museum-quality historical invocations. This years art fair showed the rise of single artist presentations. The show was a draw for some of the most fashionable people. It was definitely the event to see and be seen at. One would think that the show was recession proof considering that a number of high end pieces had been sold on opening day. SOURCE: News1.net by Frank X.
