ArtHamptons
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
ARTHAMPTONS ATTENDANCE SOARS AGAIN; MID-LEVEL SALES PREDOMINATE;
HIGH DEMAND AT INTERNATIONAL GALLERIES
SOUTHAMPTON, N.Y., July 13, 2011 – The continued growth of the four-day ArtHamptons international art fair of post-war and contemporary works has proven that the Hamptons is a vibrant art lover’s marketplace in the summer.
Attendance at the fourth annual ArtHamptons in Bridgehampton, NY, July 7-10, soared to more than 9,500 people compared to the 8,000 in the previous year. Sales in the $10,000 to $40,000 range predominated and amounted to approximately $5 million in total. However, sales being discussed this week are a $2.4 million Franz Kline painting, and a $1.2 million Wilfredo Lam, which if consummated, will increase the final sales total to more than $8 million. Also, the fair’s 20 international galleries experienced strong demand. For instance, the Woolff Gallery, London, and The Cynthia Corbett Gallery, London, sold their entire ArtHamptons inventories.
The opening preview was attended by 3,000 Hamptonites, out-of-towners and a sprinkling of celebrities, surpassing last year’s 2,000 attendees and making it the largest art opening ever in the Hamptons once again.
The U.S. galleries Emmanuel Fremin Gallery, NY, and Caldwell Snyder Gallery, San Francisco, also reported the sales of their inventories. Emmanuel Fremin sold an entire wall of photographs to a major Russian collector.
ArtHamptons was an ideal forum to buy paintings, works on paper, photography, prints, and sculpture. Among the artists whose works sold were Milton Resnick, Perle Fine, Norman Bluhm, Peter Dayton, Wolf Kahn, David Burliuk, Richard Prince, Sam Francis, John Waters, Lluis Barba, Melissa Chandon, Gregory Scott, Jean Francois Rauzier, Robert Motherwell, Alex Cao, Eric Forstmann, Esteban Vicente, Paul Balmer, John Waters, Norman Lewis, Boaz Vaadia, Stanley Boxer, Fred Mitchell, Peter Reginato, Doug and Mike Starn, Garry Fabian Miller, Victor Kord, Elizabeth Catlett, Russell Young, Bert Stern, Katherine Morling, Kari Reis and Jordan Eagels.
“Collectors were impressed by the quality of the art and the architectural design and comfortable viewing space of the fair building,” said Rick Friedman, ArtHamptons' founder. “Dealers were impressed by the nonstop flow off tastemakers over the four days and learned not to misjudge the purchasing power of people wearing shorts and t-shirts,” he added.
June Kelly, of June Kelly Gallery, NY, commented, “ArtHamptons provided an opportunity for art lovers to see works by established as well as emerging artists. The venue served as a dialogue between collectors and dealers. Its strength was its making accessible a broad range of art in many mediums. It was a microcosm of the New York Art Scene.” Russell Simmons, who received the ArtHamptons Arts Patron of the Year award, bought art at the Portico New York. His brother, the painter, Danny Simmons, and a co-recipient of the award, was represented at ArtHamptons by the Bill Hodges Gallery, NY. The gallery sold works by Beauford Delaney, Jacob Lawrence and Norman Lewis, among other African-American artists.
KIWI Arts Group, Miami, sold a record 18 of William John Kennedy’s newly published prints of Robert Indiana and Andy Warhol. The daily multiple screenings of Kennedy’s documentary, “Full Circle: Before They Were Famous,” followed by discussions by Warhol superstars Ultra Violet and Taylor Mead, were filled to capacity.
This year’s ArtHamptons slimmed down to 77 galleries in order to provide fairgoers a more cogent, manageable viewing and art- buying experience. There were 4,000 artworks and 500 artists represented. The international galleries were from Israel, Korea, Japan, Greece, U.K. Canada, Spain, China, and Finland.
“The beautiful pastoral five-acre setting of ArtHamptons sets the relaxed tone for shopping art of all media, ranging from paintings, contemporary photography and prints to both indoor and outdoor sculpture,” said Friedman.
Celebrities spotted included Emmy award winner Mariska Hartigay, playwright Edward Albee, museum curators/directors Terrie Sultan and Ruth Appelhof, collectors Beth Rudin Dewoody and Joanne Cassullo, Broadway producers Stewart Lane and Bonnie Comley, Hillary Geary Ross and Wilbur Ross, and, Kathy and Rick Hilton.

ARTHAMPTONS 2011
4,000 Works by 500 Artists Represented by 77 Galleries from 10 Countries
July 7 – 10, 2011
Southampton, NY, 6/20/11 - From July 7 through July 10, 2011, the fourth edition of ArtHamptons, the international art show of modern, post-modern and contemporary works, will return to Bridgehampton.
ArtHamptons will be a tightly vetted show as the number of galleries will be reduced to 77 in order to provide fairgoers a more cogent, manageable viewing and art- buying experience. There will be 4,000 artworks and 500 artists represented. International galleries will be from Israel, Korea, Japan, Greece, U.K. Canada, Spain, China, and Finland.
U.S. galleries will include Abby M Taylor Fine Art, Arcadia Fine Arts, C. Grimaldis Gallery, Caldwell Snyder Gallery, Catherine Edelman Gallery, Cernuda Arte, Danziger Projects, Eli Klein Gallery, Finch & Ada, Jackson Fine Art, Jenkins Johnson Gallery, Jerald Melberg Gallery, June Kelly Gallery, Katharina Rich Perlow Gallery, McCormick Gallery, Robert Klein Gallery, Throckmorton Fine Art, KIWI Arts Group, Vincent Vallarino Fine Art, Waterhouse & Dodd, and Westwood Gallery. Local Hamptons dealers will include Mark Borghi Fine Art, Richard Demato Fine Arts Gallery, Keszler Gallery, Tulla Booth Gallery, Eric Firestone Gallery, and McNeill Art Group.
The Galleries will showcase paintings, drawings, sculptures, art glass, and photography. Prices will range from a thousand to several million dollars for museum-quality pieces. As a benchmark, last year's show sales in the $20,000 to $50,000 range predominated and amounted to $6 million. During the four-day run, 8,000 visitors attended, establishing the show as one of the highlights of the Hamptons' summer season.
ArtHamptons will inaugurate photoHamptons, a fresh focus on fine art photography. As the largest selection of fine art photography ever offered in the Hamptons, photoHamptons is designed to encourage and stimulate Hamptonites to buy and collect the medium. Historically, the Hamptons has been considered a serious photography buying marketplace, but before now has offered few venues with museum-level work. Limited to a dozen elite photo dealers, fairgoers will experience the finest in vintage, contemporary, modern, and post modern as well as photo-based art and video. Sponsored by Aperture Foundation and photograph magazine, the photo dealers will include Danziger Projects (exhibiting a new collection of iconic pictures of Kate Moss from photographers including Chuck Close and Annie Leibovitz), John Cleary Gallery, Throckmorton Fine Art, Tulla Booth Gallery, Finch & Ada, Robert Klein Gallery, Cavalier Galleries, KIWI Arts Group, and Catharine Edelman Gallery. They will be located throughout the ArtHamptons building
"ArtHamptons has emerged as one the premier summer must-attend events," said Rick Friedman, founder, Hamptons Expo Group and ArtHamptons, Southampton. "Hamptonites and art lovers have come to appreciate and look forward to experiencing the selection of significant fine art in the dynamic global art marketplace that we create for four days. With the rebounding Hamptons economy, driven by record bonuses on Wall Street this year, we expect the level of serious art buying to exceed last year."
There will be a British invasion with 11 U.K. galleries exhibiting, more than double from the year before. They will be Alicia David Contemporary, Cube Gallery, Cynthia Corbett Gallery, Fine Art Consultancy, Long & Ryle, Northcote Gallery, Woolff Gallery, Waterhouse & Dodd (London and NY), HackelBury Fine Art Ltd., Rebecca Hossack Art, and Turner Barnes Gallery.
For instance, Woolff Gallery will be bringing Russell West's "Slow Big Bang," conceived to represent the Big Bang theory. A colored board was placed on a wheel and each day a wire was added and paint dripped down the wire. The work was dried overnight, the wheel was turned a fraction and the process was repeated every day for a year. On November 7, 2010, the Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland created a mini big bang. ad the similarities were amazing, according to the gallery.
Long & Ryle Gallery will be showing paintings by Spanish artist Ramiro Fernandez Saus and Katharine Morling, to name a few. The light in Ramiro Fernandez Saus’ paintings has an extraordinary character. By day, it varies from the pale clarity of an equatorial morning to the glow of languid Mediterranean afternoons. Regardless of the light source it has the same effect: transporting the scenes that Ramiro depicts from reality to a dream world of heightened feeling. Ramiro captures the imaginative thrill of discovering unexplored lands, stunning sea voyages and inventive interiors. It is Ramiro’s subject matter that the distinguished painter Craigie Aitchison loved.
Katharine Morling creates animated scenes with an unusually dynamic appearance for the medium of ceramics. Morling describes these objects as three- dimensional ‘sketches’ and the true nature of the material is at first, not immediately clear: paper or fabric? It is only through touching the sculptures the viewer discovers the material is clearly ceramic. Morling’s aim is to bring dreamscapes to life by creating physical artifacts. Morling was awarded the ‘European Triennial of Ceramics and Glass’ in Brussels.
Waterhouse & Dodd will return with its stellar lineup of contemporary artists including Jean-Francois Rauzier, Jeremy Duncan, and Robi Walters. British artist Jonathan McCree's new landscapes paintings that question ideas of what a landscape may consist of, and test our aesthetic, historical and theoretical ideals, will be shown by Northcote Gallery.
Abstract Expressionist painter Mary Abbott will receive the Lifetime Achievement Award that honors excellence in visual art. Now in her 90s, Abbott has created a powerful body of work in which she combines spontaneous, gestural brushwork with a highly creative use of color. She resides and maintains her studio in Southampton. Meet Mary Abbott on Saturday, July 9, from 12 noon to 2 p.m., in our Collector’s Lounge.
Legendary Hamptons artist Peter Dayton is using digital photography to create his iconic surfboard imagery on a 2012 VW Touareg produced especially for ArtHamptons 2011. Sponsored by Volkswagen and hosted by artnet. Peter Dayton's other art works will be displayed in the Mark Borghi Fine Art booth.
There will be a Northeast premiere of the short film: "Full Circle: Before they Were Famous," featuring Warhol superstars Ultra Violet and Taylor Mead who will be present to meet and greet and sign their books. The documentary chronicles the astonishing journey of the images taken by fine art photographer William John Kennedy in the early 1960's of Robert Indiana and Andy Warhol with their iconic works. The negatives sat in a box for nearly 50 years, rarely seen by the world or his subjects until now. The film is full of personal anecdotes and remembrances by many of the principals of the story, and includes appearances by Indiana, Ultra Violet, and Mead as they view their images for the first time. The film is a presentation of the KIWI Arts Group.
Russell Simmons, media mogul and philanthropist, Rush Philanthropic Arts Foundation, and Danny Simmons, visual artist and philanthropist (RPAF), will receive the Art Patrons of the Year Award. Russell will sign copies of his new book “Super Rich: A Guide to Having It All.” "Art saves lives, it's that simple," says Russell Simmons who will be present along with his brother Danny Simmons, on July 9, 5 pm to 6 pm, to receive the award and to hold the book signing of both of their latest works.
The Opening Preview Party will be held on July 7, 6 p.m. to 9 p.m, and the proceeds once again will go to LongHouse Reserve. Last year, the show's opening drew 1,500 art collectors and guests from around the Hamptons, New York and beyond.
Most of the Hamptons' arts and cultural organizations will be exclusively supporting and promoting ArtHamptons as cultural partners. They are the Parrish Art Museum, Guild Hall, Pollock-Krasner House & Study Center, LongHouse Reserve, Hamptons International Film Festival, Ross School, The Jewish Center of the Hamptons, Children's Museum of the East End, Southampton Fresh Air Home, and Heckscher Museum of Art.
The USA Network, a sponsor to ArtHamptons, will use ArtHamptons as a central theme for an upcoming episode of “Royal Pains”. The hit TV show is about a doctor that makes house calls in the Hamptons. Since attending ArtHamptons is one of the highlights of the Hamptons social and cultural summer season, USA Network considers it is an ideal backdrop setting to convey the ultimate Hamptons experience. The twist is, they are not shooting inside the actual fair in Bridgehampton, but rebuilding and reenacting a portion of the ArtHamptons Opening Preview Gala scene with their stars on their set in an undisclosed location.
These partnerships are expected to increase the attendance to surpass last year's record. Beneficiaries of a portion of the ticket sales will be the Guild Hall Museum, Bridgehampton Historical Society and Parrish Art Museum, respectively.
Celebrity spotting has become a sport at ArtHamptons as exhibitors had the pleasure of meeting "famous art lovers" including Kelsey Grammer, Joy Behar, Connie Chung, Rosanna Scotto, Jon Bon Jovi and Edward Albee. The scene is reminiscent of and referred to by attendees as "the mini-Art Basel" of the Hamptons.
