March 2014 will be remembered for Armory Week, a manic time of traversing fairs and seeing everything from Beyonce art to Lil Boosie rugs. Additionally, we put up three individual POW! WOW! Hawaii interview videos, with the artists Skinner, Know Hope, and Augustine Kofie. Our Portfolio Reviews for March included art pieces inspired by the kings of hip-hop as well as street art from the duo Cyrcle. Look back at everything that happened in the art world over the last 31 days, from our interview with Richard Phillips to all the must-reads around the Web with our Monthly Review: March 2014 on Art+Design.
