Have You Posted Your #CFIO?
by Kelsey Zalimeni
This post is dedicated to reminding all you readers out there to POST, POST, POST! We are still eager to see more submissions for the #CFIO, the first annual Carole Feuerman Instagram Open.
Here is a simple step-by-step recap on how to enter for a FREE, autographed copy of Carole's new book, Swimmers:
1. Pick a Feuerman to pose as- have fun with this... browse Carole's works on her website and choose one with a glamorous pose or funky suit!
2. Snap a pic- selfie form, mirror pic style, or grab-a-stranger-to-photograph are all acceptable forms of getting this done.
3. Post- use the hashtag #CFIO and include the title of the work you're emulating in the caption.
That's it! We will contact you from Carole's official Instagram account if you are selected as the winner. You'll also be featured in a post on this blog as the official victor of the #CFIO.
Now good luck, and get to posting!
Feuerman Impresses in Houston

This post contains a real treat, courtesy of a TX Contemporary fairgoer. Instagram was graced with a stunning time lapse shot by @can.dido, featured HERE:
'I think this was the most interesting piece at the Art Fair! It was unreal how real it looked! #hyperlapse.'
'Kendall Island' (2014), exhibited by Timothy Yarger Fine Art Gallery at TX Contemporary
Clearly 'Kendall Island' was a big success, attracting plenty of attention for the Jim Kempner Fine Art booth. Carole has even more impressions to make in upcoming fairs, including KIAF 14 (Korean International Art Fair- opening this Thursday) and Art.Fair in Cologne, Germany in late October.
