Keijsers Koning / Norma Mangione Gallery / TJ Boulting
On view in New York, NY, London, United Kingdom and Torino, Italy
Description
SOFA/PAINTING is a project and conversation series coordinated by three galleries for NADA Miami.
Keijsers Koning (NY, USA), Norma Mangione Gallery (Turin, Italy), and TJ Boulting (London, UK) have come together to create a virtual booth: instead of three walls, there are three live-feeds in which each gallery has invited their artist to think about a sofa and a corresponding artwork to hang above it.
During designated ‘fair hours’ the gallerists will be live-streamed sitting at their ‘booths’ where the sofa and artwork will be displayed.
Each gallery will also present one event interacting with their corresponding artists: Jeff Grant (Keijsers Koning), Francesco Pedraglio (Norma Mangione gallery), Juno Calypso (TJ Boulting), and further engaging with a virtual audience.
Each gallery’s live-feed, as well as all the conversations, can be streamed LIVE at https://keijserskoning.com/sofa-painting/
