Explore Brooklyn’s 4 Must See Artists at The Other Art Fair Brooklyn
Ahead of the second edition of The Other Art Fair Brooklyn, we asked the Brooklyn experts at the Chamber of Commerce and Explore Brooklyn which artists they are most excited to see.
The Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce is the largest and fastest-growing Chamber of Commerce in New York. It was named 2017 Chamber of the Year by The Business Council of New York State. The Chamber promotes economic development across the borough and serves as an advocate for its member businesses. Its mission is to promote a healthy and robust business environment throughout Brooklyn. The Chamber will celebrate its centennial in 2018.
Explore Brooklyn was established by the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce in 2014 as the official tourism promotion department for the borough’s travel and tourism industry. The Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce contributes to the economic development and quality of life for Brooklyn residents and its chamber members by promoting the borough as a world-class destination for tourism, attractions, events, meeting and conventions, trade shows, sports, dining and more.
Paul Richard
Brooklyn based artist Paul Richard‘s practice goes beyond working in his studio. His iconic drip paintings can be spotted on the streets of New York and his Fine Art portraits can be found in the collections of a number of high profile collectors. See more of Paul’s work.
