Art Hudson / Farm to Frame is an initiative to support artists in the Hudson valley by bringing together better known artists and private art spaces along with lesser known artists - this season we bring Judy Pfaff and Gillain Jagger , both well known artists in their prime together with Henry Klimowicz who is an up and coming artist ( ArtNews critics pick of 2014 ) in an exhibition at the Re Institute.
The initiative also highlights how important artists are to the environment - keeping the Hudson Valley rural by their presence and reuse of structures from farm buildings to artists studio - in this case, Henry Klimowicz reusing a 20,000 sq ft dairy barn as a unique gallery space, his artist studio and residence while still using the land as a working farm.
We will start our day at the architect Steven Holl private gallery "T Space" with an exhibition of Oscar Tuazon of the Whitney biennial fame.
This initiative also supports the work of Scenic Hudson, a well known environment group that has been in existence for over 50 years .
The event is for a small group of collectors and art lovers so that everyone can connect with one another in intimate conversations and we serve a gourmet farm to table lunch !!!!!
