This weekend The Celeste Prize exhibits an exceptional group of contemporary artists from around the world, chosen by a distinguished committee of international curators, November 11 to 13. To expand the scope of the celebration, The Celeste Prize and Invisible Dog are proud to showcase 35 Brooklyn artists with a day of open studios. Four New York curators, chosen by The Celeste Prize and The Invisible Dog, selected the artists on the main studio tour on Saturday November 12.
Celeste and The Invisible Dog are promoting Brooklyn Open Studios, from 10am to 7pm, a day in which it will be possible to visit artists in their studios in Brooklyn. Brooklyn Open Studios is a unique initiative which supports artists and puts them in direct contact with the public.
