Next to the Affordable Art Fair 2013, in Amsterdam at restaurant Stork, we found THE bonus of the affordable art fair: Work on exhibit by photographer Claude Vanheye. Iconic portraits made in the previous century by Mr. Vanheye of popstars like David Bowie, Chaka Kahn, Jimmy Hendrix, Tom Waits, Mick Jagger, Bryan Ferry, John Lennon, Debby Harry and Grace Jones, but to name a few. They are for sale, limited, numbered and signed, (with spectaculair discount only during the fair). We, at Mimi Berlin, always have been fans of Claude Vanheye’s work, you can imagine we were pleased to meet him at the opening of AAF 2013.
