Out & About: New Trad Party, Christopher Spitzmiller & Frieze

Like I mentioned in the previous post, I attended the Traditional Home party honoring this year’s New Trads while I was in NYC. I had such a great time visiting with the other honorees and catching up with friends! A big thank you to Traditional Home for hosting a day of terrific events!

The day began with a breakfast at the Museum of Arts and Design. From there, we had a private showing of the Swept Away exhibit. Led by Traditional Home Senior Arts and Antiques Editor, Doris Athineos, the tour gave us an overview of the exhibit that utilizes unusual materials such as dust, ashes, dirt and sand. After seeing the exhibit, we had a delicious lunch at Robert, the museum’s restaurant that overlooks Columbus Circle and Central Park.

That evening, I attended the TRADhome launch party celebration with the other New Trad honorees. And what a fun night it was! Here are a few snapshots from the party:

And I can’t help but tell you about my visit to Christopher Spitzmiller‘s studio in Midtown. I have always admired Christopher’s talent and enjoy using his lamps for clients whenever I can. Seeing his workshop was truly an inspiration! With help from 12 craftsmen and women, Christopher hand makes the original lamp forms himself which then become the moulds. Once that process is completed, the glaze is applied, some of the pieces are hand-painted, and they are fired overnight in a kilns. The colors of Christopher’s lamps are so incredibly rich and the depth that is created by the glaze makes for a stunning end result. Here are some lamps that are currently in his studio…waiting for a good home!

And to cap off the whirlwind trip, I made a stop at the Frieze Art Fair on Friday. Before I found out Frieze New York was happening, I was well-acquainted with Frieze London, and its world-class reputation. When a friend called to tell me that Frieze NY was taking place while I was in town, I was thrilled to get to see the show. The exceptional thing about this contemporary art fair is the international focus. With galleries from around the world presenting countless pieces of art in a one-of-a-kind temporary tent structure, (designed by a local architectural firm especially for the event) it was pretty incredible. Many of pieces had a real, let’s say “shock value” associated with them, so they would not easily fit in my inteiors! Nevertheless, it was a great way to spend a beautiful afternoon in NYC!
