John Zinsser's Artcritical Coverage of New York and Miami Art Fairs

Artcritical writer John Zinsser provides insights into various art fairs and events. The Armory Show attracted a stylish A-list audience, who enjoyed the vibrant atmosphere while engaging with art. The after-party at MoMA PS1 served as a fundraiser for the museum. Coinciding with the Armory Show, the ADAA fair showcased prestigious historical and contemporary artworks, leading to some confusion due to its similar name. The Independent art fair, initiated by gallerists Elizabeth Dee and Darren Flook, took place in the former Dia Art Foundation space and featured a neon installation by Claire Fontaine. Additionally, Zinsser highlights a photography exhibition that juxtaposed historical and contemporary pieces from artists like David Smith and Wolfgang Tillmans. In Miami, he explored the city's layout and high-rise condos to find the Cisneros Fontanals Art Foundation (CIFO) near downtown.
