Apartment Show is the curatorial duo of artists Denise Kupferschmidt and Joshua Smith. They have organized shows in numerous NYC apartments as well as at Artists' Space and Envoy Gallery.
Giftland was started in the 1980s by CoLab (Collaborative Projects), a loosely-knit artists' collective that included Jenny Holzer, Kiki Smith, and Walter Robinson, among numerous others. This year's show continues this holiday tradition of affordable art multiples made by artists. Give the gift of art - the gift that keeps on giving!
