I love to attend art fairs, not only because of the works of art, but also because of the colourful group of people (gallery owners, artists, art collectors, art students) you can see there.
Since 2011, Sait Akkirman in Auckland has documented the gallery scene, capturing some interesting art, but also the people (artists and viewers), and assembled quite a cultural history of the place. While I have taken the occasional shots at openings, he religiously attends and photographs. http://artsdiary.co.nz
I like this ... not sure if I would wear the suit but I like the idea.
ReplyDeleteQuite an unusual suit!
