Well, what can I say....a lot of well intended 'art' works on sale in a bazar-like atmosphere. Its funny how the Affordable in AAF creates the impression that the art is priced low in relation to the quality. I would argue that the prices (although all below 5.000 Euro) are not necessarily representing fair value. Helped by bubbles, some red wine and finally vodka, we managed to work our way through the corridors. Pretty busy although many of the visitors are often seen at 'normal' gallery openings. Could that indicate that the AAF is not (yet) accessing a new public by lowering the gallery' fear-of-entry-factor' ?
