About Fridge Art Fair: Fridge Art Fair was born in 2013 on New York's Lower East Side. Fridge Art Fair is the boutique, soft sell, dog-friendly satellite fair dubbed by Artinfo as "the baby who has refused to obey orders to stand outside the door while the adults confabulate inside."

About Eric Ginsburg: Fridge Art Fair Founder and Artist Eric Ginsburg (http://worldoferic.com) is best known for his unique and whimsical dog and cat portraits which consist of soulful and painterly qualities.  Ginsburg credits his success to patron and friend Sol LeWitt who commissioned works and served as a mentor, along with William Wegman, who served both as Eric's "pen pal" and as a "kind of a hero."  Ginsburg's works are found in public & private collections around the world including: Herb & Dorothy Vogel Collection of the National Gallery of Art, Corrie ten Boom Museum (Netherlands), The New Britain Museum of American Art, The Cartin Collection, Cindy Sherman, Fred Dorfman, William Wegman, Agnes Gund, Paula Cooper, and the LeWitt Collection.

About Blue Moon Hotel:  Located in the heart of Miami's Art Deco District, Blue Moon Hotel is housed in a Mediterranean revival building on Collins Avenue.  The 75-guestroom historic hotel was created in 1997 through the artful combination of two unique buildings: the Lafayette Hotel, which originally opened in 1934, and the Floral Apartment Hotel (later known as Les Suites), built in 1940.  Merv Griffin, the late entertainer and hotelier, once owned the hotel and gave the Hotel its name after the song "Blue Moon" written by Rodgers and Hart (Griffin was always particularly fond of the tune).  The Hotel is an affiliate of Marriott's Autograph Collection and is a proud member of HHM's Independent Collection.
