A Few Questions for Stacy Arezou Mehrfar
Posted on 07:32 by election
© Stacy Arezou MehrfarI first met Stacy Arezou Mehrfar in my early days of learning photography at the ICP. Many years passed and we lost touch. In a weird twist we didn't reconnect until she moved 10,000 miles away to Australia. Since then I have been rediscovering her work just as the world seems to be discovering it for the first time. When I heard a print of Stacy's would be offered for...

He is now Vice President at Fenton Communications, the leading advertising and public relations firm working for social change. Today, the ultra-conservative magazine Human Events did an "expose" on Fenton that may well have been the best ever commercial for their services....
The Artist-Museum Partnership Act
Posted on 08:12 by election
Last year I donated seven prints to worthy causes so they could sell them in charity auctions. Like anyone who donates to a nonprofit, I believe in the cause and want to do what I can to further their mission. When I give a print to an organization it represents not only the potential fair market value of the work, but the passion and creative energy that went in to producing the piece in the...

Posted on 21:25 by election
Don’t Fence Me In © Scott HuntDoes 'emerging' mean young? Should the age of an artist matter? ArtInfo addresses these questions in an article about a Spanish collector who canceled a sale after learning the artist was almost 50 years old.My inclination is to conclude that the Young Spanish Buyer is like so many fairgoers today, acquiring art for reasons other than what it depicts, what it...
