The fair hosts 63 exhibitors across two floors while continuing its signature series of special projects. Original installations include Molly Dilworth's site-specific painting, and the Ben Wolf's Clamber, in which Wolf creates a massive environment from materials he salvaged from an abandoned ship in Newark, New Jersey.
The 2011 edition of PULSE New York makes its debut in its new home at Metropolitan Pavilion from March 3-6, 2011. PULSE New York 2011 will host 63 exhibitors across two floors in a pristine, recently-renovated setting while continuing its signature series of special projects. In recognition of the hectic New York art fair week, PULSE New York 2011 is conveniently located in Manhattan's Chelsea neighborhood, minutes from Union Square and all major subway lines, and will provide complimentary wireless internet access to all visitors.
Numerous mainstay exhibitors will return following triumphant showings in PULSE Miami 2010—the first edition under recently-appointed Director Cornell Dewitt—including Mark Moore Gallery which recently relocated to Culver City and Galerie Stefan Roepke, of Cologne. International galleries making their return to PULSE New York include the venerable Singapore Tyler Print Institute (STPI), which will stage a solo booth of American artist Trenton Doyle Hancock, and Cuban gallery Habana, presenting artists Ivan Capote and Glenda Leon. PULSE New York is also proud to welcome several exciting first time exhibitors, such as Luis De Jesus Los Angeles, and Montreal's Art Mûr in the solo-artist IMPULSE section.
SELECTED SPECIAL PROJECTS
PULSE New York 2011 will also continue its series of special projects, with many deeply rooted in the New York area. Visitors to the fair will immediately enter a special pop-up bookstore created by Brooklyn's celebrated Powerhouse Books, featuring selected titles published by Powerhouse and others. Original installations include Molly Dilworth's site-specific painting Field Test (NYC), courtesy of David B. Smith Gallery. Field Test (NYC), is part of a series of works by Dilworth that reference electron microscopy images of rare-earth elements, a prominent example of which is her Cool Water, Hot Island, installed across several blocks of Times Square. Also on view will be Ben Wolf's Clamber, presented by New York gallery CHRISTINA RAY, in which Wolf creates a massive environment from materials he salvaged from an abandoned ship in Newark, New Jersey.

PULSE
Through its annual editions in New York and Miami, PULSE serves as the junction between central and satellite art fairs. Its exhibitors consist of a select group of leading and pioneering international galleries that present works by premier contemporary artists with those of emerging and undiscovered talents. A central component of the fair is its program of commissioned cultural projects that link its audience to all aspects of the visual and performing arts.
