Benefit Prints for Your Benefit

by

Artnet‘s resident print expert Deborah Ripley isolates the art bargains in benefit prints that could have been easily obtained during the Armory Week fairs. Now you’ll have to track some down, and, maybe pay a little bit more:

  • At Pulse, for instance, while on your way to the café, be sure to check out the Art in General benefit edition byPae White, a star of both the Whitney show and the recent Venice Biennale. Her bronze table sculpture of a Sycamore leaf, done in an edition of 20, is $1,800.
