I’m stuck in Texas trying to finish the business plan for art251. So, it goes without saying - but I’ll say it anyway - I’m missing the annual Armory Show in New York City. The show runs from March 27-30 at Pier94. This year’s count is around 150 galleries featuring all new works from living artists… or is it living works from new artists?

Perhaps indicative of the growing influence of contemporary art in Europe and Asia, in this year’s event non-U.S. galleries outnumber home-grown ones.

So, since I’m unable to attend the Armory - after all, I did get to visit Art Basel Miami in December 2007 - I’ve posted a short pre-opening video that makes me feel as if I am, well, almost, but not-quite really there.
