ABC x Startup to collaborate at Future Fair NYC May 13-16

Artfully Branded Curatorial x Startup Projects Announce Collaboration at Future Fair 2026

Artfully Branded Curatorial and Startup Projects are pleased to announce a collaborative presentation — ABC x Startup — debuting at the upcoming edition of Future Fair in May 2026 in New York City.

Founded by artists Ray Beldner and Katherine Filice, the two curatorial platforms come together for this focused presentation featuring work by both artists.

The exhibition brings together two materially driven practices that approach layering and accumulation through distinct lenses. Beldner’s work engages fragments drawn from visual culture and art history, while Filice’s work emerges from immersive time spent hiking in the forest, collecting materials that later become part of her layered surfaces.

Though their sources differ, both artists explore how materials accumulate meaning over time. Through processes of transformation, layering, and physical construction, the works function as quiet records of experience, memory, and attention.

Presented as a dialogue between two artist-founders, ABC x Startup highlights the ways material investigation and layered surfaces continue to shape contemporary abstraction.
