NEW
YORK, NY.- Starting off the summer program, Danziger
Projects will
present a group exhibition and installation titled “The Art Fair is
Present”. On
one hand a playful reference to the just finished Marina Abramović
retrospective
at MoMA (titled “The Artist is Present”) the exhibition is comprised of
work
exhibited by the gallery in recent art fairs mixed with new work by
Jean-Philippe Delhomme commenting on the New York art world. On the
other hand,
the exhibition seriously calls into question the practice and convention
of how
art is viewed in galleries, how information is provided, how commerce is
conducted, and what effect and to what extent communication (or the lack
of) is
a part of the process.
