It took close to three hours to do it, but we made it--through all nine floors of Artomatic 2009. We started at the top making concentric circles while spiraling down floor by floor until we reached the bottom. On seven, Co-Curator Jennifer Judelsohn was hosting "Cupcakes and Conversation" as part of annual event's Meet the Artist Night. We were able to stop there to catch a break and snack on spinach dip with veggies and fresh grapes and cheese. Two hours and five floors later, we're at the bottom--whipped and inspired at the same time. We were so inspired by what we saw, we thought we'd make a list of some of the must see women in this year's exhibition, including some of H4's own.
In no particular order, Drum Roll Please......
