Issue #4 (1 November 2011)

I am delighted to be back and it was wonderful to present a slideshow of the Frieze Art Fair and the Venice Biennale to such an appreciative audience! I have highlighted some of the exhibitions that I saw as well as many more from New York. 

Fall is prime time for art and there is much to be seen this year! Just a reminder that we will not be hostingArtCafé in November due to the vast amount of activities that are currently going on at WAC. I hope to see you all at our opening of ON DUTY, Friday, November 18th from 6-8pm., if not sooner!

Best Wishes, Helen Klisser During
