The Work Of Fede Saenz

16-04-2013
Artists, New York

As the possibility of spending some time in Brooklyn this summer is becoming more and more of a reality, I decided to look for artists in the area. I was thrilled to discover the paintings of Fede Saenz. Native of Argentina, he has been living and working out of Brooklyn since 2003.  His work explores the basics, and investigates the problem of simplicity. Interesting line, “the problem of simplicity”. I really hope to have the chance of meeting him in person and maybe bringing back one of those fabulous pink paintings for may collection.

Park Avenue Armory commissioned artist Ann Hamilton to create her first largescale project in New York City in over ten years. “The event of a thread” just closed its doors and I am really disappointed to not have been able to make it in person. at least I have these dreamy swing images.

Artists, New York

A friend of mine introduced me to the work of New Yorker Rob Hann and I have to share some of his photographs with you. I selected a few favorites, but you should check out his website for much more of his work. If you happen to be in New York, you can often find Rob at his table on Prince St between Greene St and Wooster St.
