Organized for the second time in Tel Aviv, Fresh Paint Contemporary Art Fair is the stage for 17 leading contemporary art galleries, 70 young artists, community projects, commissioned works, lectures and workshops. I went there yesterday with Stephane, Pamela and Jan (a friend of Pamela visiting for the weekend - from Belgium). Not only the event but its location is rather extraordinary - Ha Tachana - the old Jaffa railway station, that has been completely renovated and will be welcoming many cultural events in Tel Aviv from now on.
