Honey Space is pleased to announce a public holiday party, and our
biannual fundraiser. Appropriately coinciding with the current
economic crisis, the exhibition will present works of art by more than
25 leading and emerging contemporary artists, priced in the range of
$10- $999. Occurring in the heart of Chelsea's alternately booming
and anxious commercial gallery climate, the exhibition champions the
idea that exceptional art should not only be accessible to the luxury
class, but rather, that it is also a humble and human mode of
communication and exchange that should be available to all. We also
always appreciate a good, swinging party.

To that end the holiday party will bring together all the classics: a
raffle that includes wrapped presents and Christmas trees, portraits
with Santa, a live steel drum reggae Christmas set, mashed-up
seasonal music by DJ Ha Ha Ha, cookies and cider, and real live
elves. There will also be a media table of independent music and
literature, curated by Thomas Beale, director of Honey Space.

The exhibition, curated by Allison Read Smith and Thomas Beale,
will feature work by: Swoon, Tom Sachs, Amy Wilson, Nils Folke
Anderson, Shara Hughes, Max Schumann, Marcus Leatherdale,
Matthew Cusick, Bread & Puppet, Peter Schumann, Thomas
Beale, Midori Harima, Mickey Western, Adam Stanforth,
Hackett, Justin Adian, Richie Lasansky, Vadis Turner, Daphane
Park, John Wells, Greely Myatt, Andrea Zemel, Ben Denzer,
Brian Lynch, Patrick DeGuira, Andras Borocz, Robbin Ami
Silverberg, Allison Read Smith, Kevin Lay, Lopi LaRoe, Marc
Awodey, and Jon Fasanelli-Cawelti.
