Art Off The Main  
African, Caribbean and Latin American Art Fair
art dallas October 2 - 5, 2008
Metropolitan Pavilion
Chelsea
New York City
The fair showcases the best in Contemporary African, Caribbean and Latin American Art. The first fair ever to showcase the combined works from these three regions which share some historical, ethnic and political experiences resulting in cultural expressions with common element.
Art Off The Main is the first and to date the only, international Caribbean fine art fair and one of only two art fairs in the United States that spotlights Latin American Art and the only art fair to spotlight contemporary African art. This trendsetting art fair has now inspired other fairs. But it will always remain “the first”
The name of the fair, Art Off The Main, speaks to the fact that many of the artists showcased, in spite of highly accomplished works, are for the most part either under-represented or absent from the American mainstream. Art Off The Main provides curators, critics and collectors an opportunity to view and collect some of the most exciting works being produced today, art which ranges from the intuitive to the modern, the traditional to the experimental, the realist to the surrealist, the political to the religious.
