A long week of art happenings has just concluded in NYC, with The Armory Show being at centerstage. But take a cab ride down to SoHo, and you found yourself at Volta NY, a fair that focused on solo projects from artists represented by galleries from around the world.

Brian Dettmer has recently focused on altering books into unique sculptural art objects, but he has in the past altered cassette tapes into a skeleton, and turned a typical road map into a human head. Starting on September 8, 2011, he will be showing at London's Black Rat Projects.
