"VISIONAIRE 65 FREE: Deluxe Edition is the luxury culmination of the three original VISIONAIRE 65 FREE site-specific installations, into a collectible edition of the eponymous New York publication. The concept for the installations mused upon the democratic power of art, the imperative nature of the poster, and simultaneously explored the double meaning of the concept "FREE", wherein both the artists and viewers are posed the thematic questions of what not only 'free' means symbolically or literally, but also in terms of 'worth' in the art-world and its relationship to creative freedom itself. The three, free, interactive public art exhibitions were mounted during three important cultural weeks across Miami (Art Basel, Dec 2015), Los Angeles (Oscar's week, Feb 2016), and New York (Frieze Art Fair, May 2016), where twelve, large format art images per city were released, self-curated and collated by attendees ... Visionaire offers 65 FREE: Deluxe Edition as a purchasable and shippable issue comprised of all thirty-six art posters. Realizing that the contents needed packaging, Visionaire tapped friend and long-time contributor Marc Jacobs. Collectors can now acquire all thirty-six art posters for the first time, housed in a beautiful, custom, hand-numbered Marc Jacobs travel bag, designed exclusively for the edition, to add to their VISIONAIRE collection. In this sense, the tongue-in-cheek irony of "FREE" is not lost on VISIONAIRE, nor to the lifelong collectors of the publication or the contributing artists, whose sense of 'free' is often challenged by the art market and its expectations over creative freedoms." -- publsiher's website https://visionaireworld.com
