If you are heading to New York for Frieze week, make sure you read the “Gathering of Far-Flung Friends, and Trends” to get a preview of the NADA Art Fair by Martha Schwendenermay in the May 8 New York Times.
After saying how it has quickly become one of the best fairs, and it’s especially great because it is one of the few fairs that boasts a free admission, the author gives a shout out to Baltimore’s Springsteen Gallery and artist Alex Ebstein, a managing editor at BmoreArt.
According to Schwendenermay:
The other thing NADA does well is reach out to like-minded colleagues from other cities and countries. Among the booths here is Springsteen, a year-old, artist-run gallery in Baltimore, which is showing some yoga mats with cutouts by Alex Ebstein that are hung like Asian scrolls. A London gallery, the Sunday Painter, has work by Hannah Perry related to car culture, including a cast of a skid mark done in fiberglass and resin, subwoofers encased in plastic foam and bent aluminum pieces.
The rest of the article is definitely worth a read, but the mention is a huge feather in a cap that is growing very quickly past the boundaries of Baltimore. Go Springsteen! Have a great weekend.
