SCALE AS SUPPORT

The Architecture Behind BARELY FAIR

Josh Dihle, Tony Lewis, Roland Miller, and Kate Sierzputowski. Moderated by Roland Knowlden (Future Firm).

From left to right: Roland Knowlden questions Roland Miller, Josh Dihle, Kate Sierzputowski, and Tony Lewis on BARELY FAIR's history.

Art fairs have become destination events around the world, but the nature of their structure is a barrier for many smaller spaces to participate. BARELY FAIR founders explore the fair’s design as a response to the architecture of traditional art fairs and why they wanted to transform it. Roland Knowlden guides a conversation on the panel’s intentions when creating BARELY FAIR’s form, their observations on how it has functioned, and how their thinking on its structure has evolved.
