Along with the political messages that have staked their claim across the fairs making up Armory Week, with American flags stretching from the white walls of the Armory Show to the dilapidated floors of Spring/Break, another opportunity for reflection has emerged, literally: an array of artworks incorporating mirrors, ideal for all your selfie needs. As usual, Anish Kapoor dependably provided the perfect photo op at the Armory Show, while the mysterious artist Puppies Puppies gave visitors a chance to actually wear his shiny gold baubles. From Jeppe Hein’s buoyant, shiny balloons at Armory to a foil-lined room ringing with guitar solos at Spring/Break, tour the best spots to take selfies around New York this weekend, here.
