Arkitip at LA Contemporary Art Fair
Arkitip lives by a noble mantra. “Support the arts. Support freedom of expression. Keep art affordable and accessible”. That is why Arkitip will be on hand at the Los Angeles International Contemporary Art Fair which is being held this weekend, from January 27 - 30, 2011. Expect to see the independent humble journal each day of the fair, offering a special 50% off fair discount on selected Limited issue editions.
Initially, the Fair began in West Hollywood at the Pacific Design Center, but the Art Fair has relocated in 2011 to the Barker Hangar in Santa Monica. The new big venue means more room for more art galleries. Think 40 foot ceilings. The Fair presents approximately 70 top galleries in the world, with a strong focus on Los Angeles galleries. Everyone is invited to come peruse the work — art collectors, curators, and patrons of the arts alike to enjoy.
Arkitip will be showing a curated collection of published works, print editions and collaborative projects. Special promotional giveaways will also be available to attendees. To use their words, “Come by, say hello, complete your collection”.
Fair Location is at The Barker Hangar, 3021 Airport Avenue Santa Monica, CA 90405. Hours are: Friday, January 28 is from 11:00 - 19:00. Saturday, January 29 is from 11:00 - 19:00, and Sunday, January 30 is from 11:00 - 18:00.

So, to make your shopping efforts just a little bit easier this year, I’ve compiled a little gift guide for you courtesy of the shops at The Standard, Downtown LA and The Standard, New York!
1. & 2. - Artist José Parlá has once again given us an incredible incarnation of his work by teaming up with Incase to produce these one of a kind convertible book jackets for your MacBook and iPad.

Our Cool Coasters
How sweet are these pieces? The series of coasters, inspired by hand made designs of 1950’s hotel coasters, include 4 pieces of art representing each of our buildings. The coasters are such hi-art that we have a framed series hanging in our Manhattan office. Designed by Andrew Holder.
Our grandparents made good things.
The coasters were part of Arkitip’s limited edition issue dedicated to hotels. Check out Cheryl Dunn’s Video interview with Andre Balazs.
