Contemporary Art: Kira Scerbin`s Operating Model & More @ King´s Leap Gallery New York

 (Drivebycuriosity) - New York´s gentrification never sleeps. Manhattan`s Lower East Side is slowly degenerating into a party district with a legion of fast food places & other dives. They are pushing many of the fine tiny art galleries out which can not afford the climbing rents anymore. But it seems that neighboring Chinatown is benefiting. I spot there many new art dealers which take advantage from still reasonable rents.
