One of Dallas' best art events if back, and it extends over several days so you hardly have an excuse to not get to the Art Fair.
The Eyeball is offering a lot to look at as one of the hosting sites of this year's Art Fair.The Dallas Art Fair and its surrounding events are always a welcome harbinger of the season. With visiting gallerists, private tours and swellegant soirées, it’s a kind of spring break for moneyed art aficionados. But the beauty of the experience is that the fair can be a choose-your-own-adventure experience.
Art Fair director Kelly Cornell says she’s already seen a plethora of female-focused art, portraits, self-portraits and abstraction this year, as well as booths devoted to works on paper. In the past, many galleries have gone for a bigger-is-better approach , but things have evolved to include more experimental work.
Cornell has also seen a recent focus on 20th-century and contemporary design, such as the booth the local boutique Sputnik Modern has run over the last few years. With 90 participating galleries and an 80% return rate, the 15-year-old fair has almost outgrown its long-term environs of the Fashion Industry Gallery. Still, Cornell says she’s looking closely at her collectors' evolution before changing its size.
