Keep an eye on us as we prepare to break a leg at SCOPE NEW YORK 2014 in March.

MAKING WAVES AT SCOPE MIAMI

We arrived in Miami the morning of November 30. After three days of unpacking crates, unwrapping paintings, and finalizing the hang, the booth was ready for art viewers! Since the VIP opening on December 2, we've enjoyed enthusiasm from visitors, including a big kudos from David Arquette. 

MIAMI BOUND

With the help of Lynne, Lauren, and Blaine, and with Brook Brown's surprise donation of the perfect foam protective material, Coup completed the packing of the work headed to Miami this week. A total of 10 crates were constructed by Eliot Brown. Lauren and I will arrive in Miami on Saturday, November 30 to begin unpacking the paintings and setting up our booth C25. My brother Todd will join us on Tuesday, December 3 to offer his talent for charming prospective clients. Stay tuned for updates from SCOPE MIAMI 2013 (http://scope-art.com/shows/miami-beach-2013/about/).

JESSICA GOLDFINCH: Anatomy Lesson in a Time of Conflict

The clouds parted on the evening of Art for Arts' Sake, and Coup was excited to present Jessica Goldfinch's disturbingly beautiful exhibit "Anatomy Lesson in a Time of Conflict". Doug MacCash's wonderful review of the exhibit at  http://www.nola.com/arts/index.ssf/2013/09/jessica_goldfinchs_anatomy_les.html brought in lots of new fans as well as the loyal Goldfinch groupies. The show will run until November 9. Gallery hours are 12-6 Wed-Sat and 1-6 Sun-Mon.
