Art Off the Main, the trend-setting art fair, was conceived as a vehicle to present affordable art by emerging and established artists from regions and cultures that have traditionally been underrepresented in other art fairs. It is the first fair ever to showcase the combined works from Africa, the Caribbean and Latin America, three regions which share historical, ethnic and political experiences resulting in cultural expressions with common elements. This fair has become a beacon of diversity, a place of discovery and source of inspiration.
The economy continues to be weak and the impact on the art industry has been harsh. Due to the disappointing sales results from art galleries, art fairs and art auctions over the past year, we decided not to stage Art Off the Main 2009 in a brick and mortar venue.
Being the innovator that we have been for decades, this year we have decided to stage a virtual art fair-the first of its kind. The fair will be staged October 15-23 via a link on this website. Access to the fair will open at midnight October 14th, be one of the first to view this exciting collection of works.
