Above, some random photos of the Touchstone Gallery room at (e)merge art fair in Washington, DC. The fair, which ran from Oct 2-5, was jammed with folks who love art – buyers, curators, artists, art students, collectors, gallerists, and art writers. Lots of traffic and a very supportive administrative staff tending to the needs of participants. Kudos to the organizers and staffers who made it happen.

The Touchstone room attracted lots of visitors during this first year of participation.  Thanks to Gallery Director Ksenia Grishkova and Director’s Assistant Rachel Tanzi for their staffing, and to fellow exhibitors Ai-Wen Wu Kratz and Pete McCutchen for their fabulous artwork and assistance before, during and after.

Checking out LED lighting today in preparation for installing the show at (e)merge art fair, Washington, DC in a week.  Touchstone Gallery will be in room 226 of the site venue, The Capitol Skyline Hotel, 10 “I” Street, SW.  VIP opening Oct 2, open to the public Oct 3-5.

I’ll be sharing Touchstone space with co-exhibitors Ai-Wen Wu Kratz and Pete McCutchen, both with very strong contemporary viewpoints. Exhibit and fair should be a knock-out.  Plan to join us. I’ll be there.
