Govenors Island Art Fair is seeking independent artists worldwide working in all disciplines (painting, photography, sculpture, installation, video, sound, performance art, and more) to apply for free exhibition space at the Govenors Island Art Fair–New York’s largest independent exhibition. Every year, more than 100 artists of exceptional talent are chosen to show their art every full weekend in September amongst the sprawling the landmark architecture of New York’s Governors Island, one of city’s most popular attractions for tourists and locals alike. Founded by 4heads, a group of working artists based in New York City, this event champions a new model for art fairs by putting the artists and the visitors first. The artists’ exhibition space is free. Admission to the fair is free. Even the ferry ride to the island is free. This frees up artists, both unknown and well-known, to present their work their way at no cost in a unique, world-class venue.
