Enrico Gomez said it just right in the latest Wagmag newsletter: the art world is head over heels crazy this week over Armory, with several Bushwick galleries showing at Pulse, VOLTA and SPRING/BREAK Art Show. Over the years a selection of art spaces around the neighborhood have collaborated to celebrate Armory Arts Week by way of Armory Late Night, taking place in both Bushwick and Ridgewood. With extended hours at over 20 local galleries, as well as new openings on Friday and Saturday, it’s a good weekend to see it all!
