Black Art In America

The Leading Voice for the Black Arts Community.

Where do you find Black art?

Hello All. I'm a fledgling collector and also starting a magazine about African and Diaspora art, but I was wondering where you all find and buy most often. Are there some "must see" galleries that always deliver? Or certain show that shouldn't be missed? Or do you rely more on personal relationships (that's been my route so far). And what about overseas? In that case, it's pretty much galleries for me. Small ones.

You can view images like the following at the New York Photo Show March 31 at the Lighthouse 111 East 59th Street.  We would like everyone to attend and see the images of Jazz players, athletes, and notable Black Americans that will be for sale.  Hope you will decide to join us.

Thanks. I'll be sure to spread this one to our audience (www.AnOpenGallery.com). FYI, your link on the photo shows page doesn't work.

Thanks, I have asked the website person to change the link.  I guess I need to ask again. 

Hope you will join us for the show.  Do you need discount cards for the show?
You can forward the card and tell people if they copy it and bring it to the show they will get the discount.
