Hi there, Gwen. Thanks for posting these articles by Eric Smith! I'm Director of Social Media for Artexpo and wanted to let you know that because we've decided not to move forward with our LA show this fall, those links are no longer available. However, you'll find these same helpful articles and more on the blog for our New York show: http://artexponewyork.com/blog/ You might want to replace the links. Thanks again, and keep up the great work with your blog!
