"Voices and Visions" runs from November 9, 2023, to January 20, 2024. Read more -

Gustavo Acosta: "Inventory of Omissions"
7 Sep - 14 Oct 2017 The paintings in Gustavo Acosta’s “Inventory of Omissions” may initially seem like discrete chapters in a visual essay on the oppressive bleakness of the modern city, but such a reading misses the point of his static but intensely hued portrayals of sites in Havana, Miami, New York, and Aleppo. A... Read more -
LAST PICTURE SHOW
11 May - 29 Jun 2017 there is no harm in repeating a good thing -Plato An exhibition of work which posits the idea that creativity exists in not knowing, maybe the answer is “I can’t go on, I’ll go on”.

Depend on the Morning Sun
7 - 28 Jan 2017 The exhibition effectively extends the continuum of abstractions in color that have engaged the artist in recent years.

13 Nov 2014 - 10 Jan 2015 When describing Diana Copperwhite’s work Colm Toibin wrote: “Her work is about painting first and foremost; [these] references merely serve a purpose.

Now(here)
27 Apr - 25 May 2013 This exhibition features several recent paintings from Langsam’s long-running series of banded montages that set nearly monochromatic, tightly rendered views of iconic modernist buildings on top of a band of gridded abstract motifs inspired by classic modernist paintings and beneath ominously lit skies that invoke Romantic landscape painting. The skies... Read more -
Fusion
21 Feb - 30 Mar 2013 “It could be like this and it could also be like that…,” says Tatjana Busch. But not until we see her latest works in this exhibition, does her meaning become truly accessible.

Anna Borowy, Tanja Selzer
8 Sep - 15 Oct 2011 Anna Borowy’s motifs are primarily human characters and moments, depicted portrait-style and manifesting particular events. The reduced appliance of outlines and forms connects the figures with the backgrounds and accompanied diaphane images of animals. The apparent youth and grace of the portrayed are distorted by flawed structures and sinister traits.... Read more -

In the Name Of
28 Apr - 28 May 2011 Editorial Review: The New York Art World, May 2011 Robert Kunec’s work, which refers to the suicide attack, is of self-explanatory. Kunec creates an impressive picture of the interior mechanism of this event, also of the ideological, manipulative indoctrination. The sculpture deals with the totalitarian way of thinking, taking the... Read more -
Evanescent Dreams
25 Mar - 16 Apr 2011 The work of Vincenzo Lo Sasso is not only the search for a balance between opposing forces but rather, and radically so, the attempt to translate the ancient contrast between solid bodies and liquid presences into images, between that which is unmoving and that which cannot avoid swaying, ever more...

Recent Works By Guenter Knop
12 Nov - 24 Dec 2010 Guenter Knop is a remarkable photographer whose love of women shines through in every photograph.

Wom'd
1 - 31 Oct 2010 WOM’D explores the relationship between environment and the development of young individuals within a specific societal context. Employing stereotypical poses related to religion, culture, and social development, the whole series assumes an exaggerated and ironic character. One culture’s physicality cross references another’s societal failure, and familiar conventions of pose and... Read more -
Intuitive Forms
23 Aug - 11 Sep 2010 Tatjana Busch’s words remind us of the Bauhaus. Indeed, the artist has close connections to the German Bauhaus way of thinking as well as to Russian Suprematism and the Dutch De Stijl movement, or neoplasticism. Most of all, her works echo Josef Albers’ famous squares and his studies of the... Read more -

Turning the Corner
10 Jun - 6 Jul 2010 The title of this exhibition invites a host of interpretations, each of which describes an aspect of Iliyan Ivanov’s art and may allude to the fact that the right side of the triptych called Apocalyptic Unicorn wraps from one of our gallery’s walls to the next. The abrupt 90 degree... Read more -
Inside out
10 May - 7 Jun 2010 Hughes’ paintings (here represented by large, medium and small scale works) re-examine and renew the always delicate relationship between color and form. Hughes’ forms are strangely suggestive, but of what exactly: primordial ooze, cell division run amok, fragments of the cosmos, a frozen oil spill, decay or growth, plant, animal,... Read more -
Diary
