"I applied for the New York City Workspace [Opportunity] because it gives me the opportunity to experience the art world firsthand," said Clary, a Master of Fine Arts candidate in painting....It's inspiring to know that I can flip to any page (pretty much) in Artforum and say, 'I've not been to that show, yet I can check it out tomorrow.'"
