TRIACONTAGON: A celebration of 30 years of the Artists Fellowship Program

NYFA Curatorial is pleased to announce an exhibition, Triacontagon: A Celebration of 30 Years of the Artists’ Fellowship Program.

Triacontagon is a traveling exhibition premiering at Westbeth Gallery featuring 38 NYFA Fellows.

Technically a triacontagon is a thirty-sided star polygon. Although it is a star in its geometric configuration, it is also a circle which represents the full-circle relationship NYFA has with its Fellows, supporters and constituents. We borrow this terminology to symbolize the thirtieth anniversary of our Artists’ Fellowship Program and its scope.
