The Other Art Fair Launches Online Studios Digital Platform
The Other Art Fair, an emerging art fair with editions in London, Sydney, Los Angeles, New York, Dallas, Melbourne, Chicago, and Toronto, has launched Online Studios, a digital platform to support artists during the pandemic. Created in collaboration with Saatchi Art, the platform allows collectors to discover and purchase works from over 800 artists in the fair's network. Online Studios for London and Sydney are currently live; Los Angeles and New York editions start April 22, followed by Chicago and Dallas on May 6. Each virtual fair lasts two weeks and includes interactive content and artist studio tours. Features include Meet the Others, a weekly video series on IGTV and YouTube; The Other Creative Challenge, a biweekly Instagram art challenge; and Inside the Studio, live talks with artists on Instagram and Facebook Live. Works are searchable by price, starting at $150. Founder Ryan Stanier stated the platform creates opportunities for the international community to discover independent artists and fosters a digital sense of unity. All physical fair editions except Toronto (scheduled September 10-13) have been postponed indefinitely.
