“NADA easily retained its magic in its new location, as the fair is still seen as a source of very new art that is, well, a good investment, in more ways than one. My favorite example of this kind of context-inspired credibility came at the booth of Callicoon Fine Arts, a new gallery founded earlier this year in the quaint Delaware River burg of Callicoon. Only at NADA could a hillbilly operation like this do such land-office business, with works by Daniel Gordon and others. Or perhaps the charming young dealer Photios Giovanis, who also works at Metro Pictures, is just a hard-core salesman.”

back from winter
It’s been all winter, but we finally got back to Callicoon and spent some time in the gallery on Saturday. On Sunday we started painting the walls with the help of Lee Hartwell of Lee Hartwell Antiques. I’ve never painted a room before, so there was a bit of a learning curve and a couple of “do-overs”. Luckily for us Lee is an expert (and a perfectionist!). Photographs by Stephen Motika.
