AIPAD




if you like photography and are thinking about collecting, you should certainly check out the AIPAD Photography show at the Armory this weekend. Photographs are a good place to start collecting, they're mulitiples so they tend to be significantly cheaper than paintings or sculpture. The work here is not going to be the cheapest of the cheap but there could be some interesting stuff. And remember, only get what you like! It's the only thing that matters!

Here's the info:

One of the most important international photography events, The AIPAD Photography Show New York, will be presented by the Association of International Photography Art Dealers (AIPAD) from March 18 through 21, 2010.

More than 70 of the world's leading fine art photography galleries will present a wide range of museum-quality work including contemporary, modern and 19th century photographs, as well as photo-based art, video and new media, at the Park Avenue Armory in New York City.

The 30th edition of The AIPAD Photography Show New York will open with a Gala Preview on March 17 to benefit the John Szarkowski Fund, an endowment for photography acquisitions at The Museum of Modern Art in New York City.

The AIPAD Photography Show New York is the longest running and foremost exhibition of fine art photography.
