Winter Pop-up Market for Antiques in Dumbo

By Anonymous -

For 12 weekends, starting January 10/11, the Flea will be launching a Winter Pop-Up Market for antiques in DUMBO. We're taking over an unrented corner storefront in a prime location every Saturday and Sunday until the end of March. (The outdoor Flea returns the first weekend in April 2009.)

The Winter Pop-Up will feature 25 top vintage/antique vendors of furniture, clothing, objects, jewelry, curiosities, accessories, art, lighting, and more. We're curating the Pop-Up very selectively to provide a mix that appeals to folks looking for quality, hard-to-find, and collectible items. (As my grandma would say, "Oh, that sounds like nice stuff." Exactly Miriam.)

The kind folks at New York magazine and Gothamist already showed us some love.

The address is 76 Front St. (corner of Washington, map above) in the heart of DUMBO. Come make a day of it--grab a Grimaldi's pie, an Almondine pretzel-cheese bread, some hot cocoa from Jacques Torres, a DFA 12" from Halcyon, a Brooklyn photo book from Powerhouse, and of course check out the next phase of ze Flea!

meet the artist Liam Roberts

By -
Liam Roberts’ fertile imagination transmutes images into abstract-like compositions of strik- ing energy and brushwork. He says that he is not a maker of pictures, but a maker of paintings, and that the viewer completes the work, not simply by looking but by the labour of seeing. Shakespeare, as usual, says it best: “Let every eye negotiate for itself . . .” Roberts’ mediums are acrylic, gouache, collage and ink. This show comprises recent and earlier works. Liam has exhibited in New York, London, Paris, Palm Springs, Geneva and Nicosia. He is represented in Dublin by Peppercanister Gallery.   www.liamroberts.com  /  roberts l@copper.ne
