75 Wall Street KiptonART.com 5 Year Anniversary + Opening of FINE FUTURE PERFECT

On June 8, 2010, KiptonART opened the new pop-up gallery at 75 Wall Street in the Financial District in New York to celebrate the 5 year anniversary of KiptonART.com + the opening of FINE FUTURE PERFECT curated by Stephen Frailey and hosted by Kipton Cronkite. The exhibition contains works by 7 emerging photographers and video artists.

Stephen Frailey selected seven young talents to exhibit at the 75 Wall Street “Access” location. Fine Future Perfect’s theme is a multi-media and photography exhibition with the template for that which is forthcoming, while not specifically motivated as a literal depiction of the future. The seven artists exhibiting include KiptonART Rising 2010 Winner Bon Duke, Ina Jang, KiptonART Rising 2009 Winner Naho Kubota, Cristian Mendez, Skye Nicolas, KiptonART Rising 2010 Finalists Reed+Rader and Richard Williamson. The previously empty retail space of the Andaz Hyatt was brought to life and includes new neighbors such as BMW, Cipriani Wall Street, Tumi, Tiffany’s, Thomas Pink and Hermes. Deutsche and other financial corporations are steps away allowing the downtown financial community an innovative opportunity to view and purchase some of New York’s top emerging artists.

Founded by Kipton Cronkite in 2002, KiptonART is a private establishment that culls fledgling artists and introduces them to the foremost administrators of the New York art world. On a continual basis, the organization selects a varied group of up-and-coming artists and provides an outlet for them to display their work in exhibition spaces and online. KiptonART is quietly becoming a conduit collectors and gallery operators turn to in search of emerging talent.

On June 8th in the heart of the financial district, KiptonART + New York City Ballet’s Young Patrons Circle will be celebrating young artists, the 5 year anniversary of KiptonART.com and NYC Ballet’s ‘Dance With The Dancers’ June Benefit Kick-Off for the opening “Future Perfect.” The evening will be hosted by Kipton Cronkite, Adelina Wong Ettelson, Sarah Sophie Flicker, Ashleigh Pattee,Amy Sacco, Allison Sarofim and Arden Wohl. DJ Francesco Civetta will be providing music throughout the 2,200 square foot ground floor retail space at 75 Wall Street for the launch of the newest KiptonART “Access” space curated by Stephen Frailey. The exhibition’s theme “Fine Future Perfect” collects a group of young photographers and video artists whose work, while not specifically motivated as a depiction of the future, proposes a template for that which is forthcoming. Their sensibility is buoyant, luminous, and playful, without the weight of place and with shifting identity. Straddling genres of portraiture, still life, fashion; the work together forms a portfolio of clarity, purpose and optimism. Seven artists exhibiting include Bon Duke (2010 KiptonART Rising Winner), Ina Jang, Naho Kubota (2009 KiptonART Rising Winner),Cristian Mendez, Skye Nicolas, Reed + Rader and Richard Williamson. The exhibition opens to the public on June 9thand will be on display through July 31st at KiptonART’s newest pop-up “Access” space at 75 Wall Street (at Water Street) developed by The Hakimian Organization in partnership with Peykar Brothers Realty and Gorjian Properties.
