The Armory Show rages on, and from new LED artworks by Jim Campbell, to giant optical illusions by UVA, to Rafaël Rozendaal‘s rent-able websites, seems to show no signs of stopping. With almost 200 galleries from Seoul all the way to North Africa, and over 2000 pieces of modern and contemporary art, the 17th edition of the fair is a sensory feast for collectors and art lovers alike.
“It is a very exciting moment for The Armory Show with this year’s fair marking the most focused and highest caliber edition in my tenure,” said Noah Horowitz, the fair’s Executive Director, in a press release. We decided to walk all 208,000 square feet of the space to find the weirdest and most wonderful pieces at The Armory Show 2015:
