GEISAI Miami, an art fair hosted by PULSE in which artists represent themselves was pretty weak last year, but if visibility and perhaps a few sales is all you seek it may not be such a bad opportunity.  Hopefully the fair can continue to coast on the laurels of PULSE.  The application deadline is October 15th, so that’s not a lot of time to put together material.  Additional details from the press release below.

Kaikai Kiki is calling for entries for GEISAI Miami, the second U.S. edition of the art fair conceived by Takashi Murakami. GEISAI is an art fair model that allows artists to represent themselves in a professional art fair setting and present their work directly to an audience of collectors, art professionals and art enthusiasts. Artists of all nationalities without gallery representation are invited to apply, with no restrictions on the medium, at www.geisai.us. A jury of art professionals will review all applications and select a limited number of artists to receive free booths. Applicants must be able to present original artworks on-site in Miami during all five days of the fair. GEISAI Miami will be held Wednesday, December 3 through Sunday, December 7, 2008

Sorta weird that the photo you chose to use has two artists that *do* have representation. Jennifer Dalton (middle, repped by Winkleman Gallery) and Kevin McCoy (right, repped by Postmasters) are two artists in the photo.

I can’t tell who the other person is in the photo. Might be Jenn McCoy but the face is animated and it’s hard to tell.

… more clear …

not ‘weird’ — just not very representative of the gist of what GEISAI is doing. Thanks for the info! Never heard of this before.

Totally true! I should have thought about that – I posted that picture because I knew Jennifer Dalton and Kevin McCoy

The GEISAI artist is Lizabeth Eva Rossof. She is very animated, indeed. And doing quite well in her own career.
