This is the elite art event of the summer, where throngs of the art world migrate from the city to the Hamptons to shmooze over celebrity appearances, auctions, and seminars on all things artistic. Galleries from near and far contribute to represent these artists, totaling at about 70 different booths.

This year, I attended the first day open for the public. I noticed a theme of method in what was entered into the exhibition.

There were so many multiples projects, using different objects as pixels of an image, to sculptures made out of smaller sculptures. There were also a load of images encased in LED light boxes, as if they were on a TV screen. Both of these mediums show how technology has affected the art world. Though the work was all in the theme of nature and wildlife, the way it was all represented was so new age.

Here are a few things that really stood out for me as brilliant and innovative, as well as some oldie but goodies.

De Re Gallery

Brian Bowen Smith, "Wild Horses" $5000

I just really appreciate the playfulness of this photograph. Though masks are an old tradition and it's in black and white, this photo looks very pop-culture.

Gallery M

Howard Schatz, "The Last Supper" 2005, $30,000

I have always wanted to shoot under water. Schatz has inspired my next project!

Pontone Gallery

Jeff Robb, "Unnatural Causes 15" 2015 Lenticular Photo

This reminded me how the human form doesn't always have to pose like Venus of Urbino, or in contrapposto. This photo was also a hologram, and had everyone walking past multiple times.

Olivia Park Gallery

Kiseok Kim "Plastics 3"

The detail of this painting up close is impeccable. Though it looks like computer art, which is also a commendable feat, this is entirely done by hand.

Louis K. Meisel Gallery

Brian Booth Craig, "Carey" 2015 in bronze $24,000

I think it's so badass of a pose, to be holding part of an animals skull while bearing all. This is just striking and empowering.

UNIX Gallery

Desire Obtain Cherish "Married to Success"

Sponder Gallery

William King "Take it or Leave it" 1986

I love the style of King to always accentuate long legs. There's always humor and style encompassed in his work.

McNeill Art Group

Jeff Muhs "Study in Form With Jimmy Choos and Concrete" $10,000

After moving to New York, I resonate with this piece, slamming my new shoes into the hot sticky concrete and my feet expanding as the night goes on. I love to imagine how he made this.

Eduardo Guelfenbein "Cheer" acrylic 2015

This painting is closest to my style, I LOVE MARBLING. Looking at this gives me hope.

C24 Gallery

Nick Gentry "Watch" 2015

This is a beautiful interpretation of a multiples project. I feel at peace that film photography is being used in so many new ways lately. This work also had the LED lightbox, which reminds me of the processing of film in the darkroom.
