Jim D'Amato: May 2010

Unaffordable Art Fair and Single Fare

We are pleased to announce that Jim’s work will be shown at The Unaffordable Art and Single Fare.

The Unaffordable Art Fair is curated by artists Gregory de la Haba, and CJ Nye. It poses questions about art as commodity, and sheds light on the notion that artists are a driving economic force. It is a hybrid of an alternative space art fair, and a pop up exhibition.

Single Fair is organized by artists Michael Kagan and Jean Pierre Roy. Every artwork in the show has been created on a Metrocard. In this case the seemingly disposable Metrocard becomes a symbol for New York’s kinetic artistic community, and an odd surface upon which many creative possibilities can take place. Single Fare has already been featured in the New York Times, prior to it’s opening.

Jim created “Space Trip” (pictured above) for the show.

Both exhibitions have opening parties on Saturday May 8^th from 6-9 pm. We hope to see you at both shows! For more information go to:
