EAST HAMPTON–Returning for its third year to the East End, SCOPE Hamptons transforms the 25,000 square-foot East Hampton Studios into a world-class art fair and destination-location for seasoned and new collectors. With over 60 international established and emerging contemporary galleries from over 20 countries, SCOPE presents a full schedule of special events, performances and screenings, alongside museum-quality programming.
This year’s Opening Night Benefit Reception and Dinner will benefit Socrates Sculpture Park’s Education Program. SCOPE Hamptons is proud to partner with Socrates Sculpture Park for its own featured program, SCOPE kids. Presented by Socrates’ artists, the SCOPE kids art-making workshops will introduce fundamental contemporary art-making techniques to our next generation of emerging artists. These inspirational projects, presented three times daily, will culminate in an all-hands-on-deck festive Sunday afternoon regatta!
For further information on SCOPE kids, please visit www.scope-art.com/images/stories/hamptons.pdf Benefit Tickets: Please contact Ellen Staller at 718.956.1819.
Continuing its mandate to redefine what an art fair is, this year’s SCOPE Cinema, in conjunction with Salomon Contemporary, is pleased to present “Stereomongrel” by Luis Gispert and Jeffrey Reed. “Stereomongrel” will be screened at the Salomon Contemporary warehouse in East Hampton on Friday, July 27, 2007. Screened daily, SCOPE’s award-winning video and film program presents The Perpetual Art Machine showcasing more than 1000 videos by over 600 emerging and established artists from 60 countries. [PAM] allows the visitor to become part of the curatorial process. PAM is organized in collaboration by Lee Wells, Raphaele Shirley, Chris Borkowski and Aaron Miller. www.perpetualartmachine.com
