Verge Art Brooklyn Fair Begins Tomorrow (March 3)

TOMORROW’S ART TODAY: THE INAUGURAL ART BROOKLYN
On Thursday, March 3, Verge Art Brooklyn invites you to experience a paradigm shift in art fairs as we know them, a show that recovers the standard of an art fair as a platform for presenting the best work by living artists. “Brooklyn is the epicenter of the emerging art world,” says Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz, “and on this long weekend of celebrating the visual arts in New York City, I say it’s smART to visit the Verge Art Brooklyn fair and to feast your eyes upon Brooklyn Art Now, an exhibition representing the extraordinary artists showing in galleries throughout the borough.” Verge Art Brooklyn is proud to host a list of exhibitors that includes international and national gallery exhibitors, resident DUMBO galleries and Brooklyn Art Now participants for a combined total of over seventy gallery exhibitors at nine locations, nearly forty participants for “Material Issue: Artist’s Projects Spaces” and fifty artists for “Tomorrow Stars: The Art Brooklyn Open Call Exhibition.”
