New Year, New York, New Art . . .
January 30, 2009
It’s interesting to note how, during the holiday season, when retailers are bending backwards to catch every potential shopper with any technique possible, the gallery district in Chelsea had only a smattering of open galleries on the weekend after New Years’. While they did swing back in full force over the next two weeks, if you didn’t know better, you probably wouldn’t think much had changed. Perhaps it hasn’t. Maybe art galleries are just a different kind of retailer.
