Art folk in Porto won’t stop talking about GANG GANG DANCE! The band will be the closing act this weekend at the Serralves 40 hour non-stop party/performance, music, video and other stuff extravaganza, and everyone I’ve met is VERY excited.

2010 marks the first year I ran Art Fag City without a second job or grant money. How did it go? In a lot of respects pretty well. I redesigned the blog (Thanks John Sexton and Veken Gueyikian), I ran a series of New York survival interviews, and launched a new recommended show section. Also, with the help of readers I produced The Sound of Art, an album filled with the sounds of performances, videos and installations across the city, and ran AFC’s popular image essay series IMG MGMT. I’m proud of these accomplishments, but I’m not going to lie — talking about art isn’t easy, and I have to fight hard for the resources to keep doing it. Donate today to keep AFC running.
