The Armory Show, 2006 Edition

This year’s New York Armory Show opens. “This year’s fair looks particularly neat. Certain galleries (Sean Kelly, Zeno X) have gone for an almost arctic spareness. Many adhere to a formulaic display: biggish painting (or photograph), medium-size sculpture, little paintings (or drawings) in a nook. Expensive, less expensive, beginner’s luck. The mix can work great.”
