Fountain is a new avant-garde art fair pioneered by Brooklyn's most cutting-edge galleries.
Dates: Thursday, February 22–Monday, February 26, 2007
Opening Reception: Thursday, February 22, 5pm-12am

The avant-garde has always laid claim to history through its challenges and victories over the status quo. In 1917, at the unjuried Society of Artists exhibition, Marcel Duchamp unveiled the world's most famous ready-made art object: "Fountain." It is in this spirit of the unexpected that some of Williamsburg, Brooklyn's most forward-thinking and cutting-edge galleries, Capla Kesting Fine Art, Front Room, Glowlab, McCaig-Welles Gallery and Outrageous Look have collaborated to present Fountain New York 2007. Expect floor-to-ceiling displays of brand- new works, bold installations, impromptu performance events and the best parties of the weekend, as this exhibition makes its mark in a massive 5000 square foot space at 660 12th Avenue, a few blocks from the Armory show at Pier 94.
Fountain is made possible in part by the support of arts services organizations including the Brooklyn Arts Council, Fractured Atlas, Nurture Art and the Williamsburg Gallery Association.

Too funny. I grew up in Gettysburg and lived there for over 20 years - now I'm south of the mason-dixon line. I'll be curious to see your photowalk pictures. Now once you get out into Adamas county a bit more then you'll find some 'treasures'. Small world!
Cheers.
