What do Alex Da Corte’s fabulous Accessory snake and Norm Paris’ Michael Jordan Save the World have in common besides Philadelphia origins?

They were both featured in a curated 18-artist group show “Versions of Reality,” at last weekend’s NEXT art fair in Chicago. The pieces in the exhibit are all from the West Collection. We knew West had bought the Paris piece, but we didn’t know that they also owned the Da Corte!!! Paige West has been on a Philadelphia shopping spree!)

Thanks to IonArts blogger-buddy Mark Barry for a tip on this show. Check out that link for the exhibit. The images are great!
