TheWallArtFair™ was initiated and created by the founders of the DocksArtFair™, an international contemporary art fair which takes place every 2 years in Lyon-France during the inaugural week of the Biennial of Contemporary Art.

The yearly periodicity of the DocksArtFair™ was therefore an obvious choice for the Art Fair creators and gallery owners involved. However reproducing exactly the same concept outside of this biennial event seemed unlikely as it has become so intimately linked with the Biennale itself.

Light Space & Time Online Art Gallery is pleased to announce that its July 2012 art exhibition is now posted on their website and is ready to view online. The theme for this art exhibition is “Abstracts” and artists were reside to apply to this competition by submitting their best non-representational for inclusion into the gallery’s July online group exhibition.

An art competition was held in June 2012 which determined and judged the art for this exhibition. The gallery received submissions from 21 different countries from around the world and they also received entries from 34 different states. Overall, there were 900 entries from 246 different artists that were judged for this art competition.

Changarrito is a project developed by Mexico City-based Argentinean artist Máximo González, who recently exhibited at the Craft and Folk Art Museum (CAFAM) in Los Angeles. It is a contemporary art vending cart borne from González's desire to integrate local artists with the alternative economy of street commerce and the mobility of changarros, or mobile vending carts in Mexico.

Changarrito debuted at the international art fair ARCO '05 in Madrid, Spain, where Mexico was the invited country. González presented Changarrito as an alternative to the official gallery selection presented by the Mexican cultural authorities. With Changarrito, Máximo facilitated a more accurate portrayal of the vast Mexican art scene, as more than 60 artists were represented.
