Exotic Expressions Exhibition | SuperCar Week
On December 17, 2020, the Palm Beach Design Showroom hosted a VIP opening preview party "Exotic Expressions, A Collaboration with SuperCar Week.” With all major art events cancelled this year, this was, probably, the first live in-person art show of the season. There was also an auxiliary pop-up display of rare and vintage cars, courtesy of Neil London, president of SUPERCAR WEEK, which is an annual Palm Beach event in January. Angelica Sua, the showroom executive director, said that the event observes all necessary Covid-19 protocols, but she says: "We want to keep art alive." The exhibition runs through January 21, 2021.
Boccara Gallery at the Palm Beach Jewelry, Art & Antique Show 2019
Last but not least, one of the notable exhibitors this year at the Palm Beach Jewelry, Art & Antique Show is the Parisian gallery “Boccara.” Art dealer Didier Marien has brought an impressive collection of tapestries ranging from antique to contemporary. They are unique because “there is not [sic] so many on the market, it’s museum quality,” says Marien. He likes to mix different epochs and styles. Thus, the Renaissance piece “Le repas de Psyché” (Dinner of Psyche) was part of the royal collection of Louis XIV. Among the featured modern artists are Wassily Kandinsky, Sonia Delaunay, Jean Lurçat and Victor Vasarely. In addition, Boccara represents contemporary sculpture and mixed media objects. Marien invites everyone to visit the Galerie Boccara in Paris. February 18, 2019
