I attended this show to do "recon" for ‪@SliceofLightGallery‬ (I'm the Operations Manager). Eye-opening experience. Still trying to wrap my head around this concept...It's a show featuring galleries, NOT individual artists (although some galleries only feature one artist). So the majority of attendees are art collectors and investors looking for new galleries to invest in...A collector/investor will check out what "hot new artists" a gallery has found, size up their work, determine if they like the art and if they agree with the gallery's choices, and if all those criteria are met, they will place their trust in that gallery. That way, the collectors/investors themselves don't have to waste their time and money trying to search one-by-one for artists worth investing in. I think that's the concept.
