Tuesday's Gallery Picks

This week’s artists playfully experiment with size and method.

*            *            *

1. Greg Bogin’s Sunny Disposition is comprised of colorful shaped-canvases where the fabric is forced into complex contortions as it is pulled seamlessly taut over wooden panels. This body of work expands upon these strategies with subtle variations of color, complexity of shape and shifts in scale at Marlborough Chelsea
2. Drawing Sound explores the intersections between drawing, sound, and performance-based art at The Drawing Center
3. Delicate Creatures showcases the works of eight contemporary artists connected by the thread of the delicate nature of their material, application and object-presence. Together, these works occupy a sublime two- and three-dimensional space, touching both painting and sculpture at Foley Gallery
4. Lorraine Loots Ants in NYC will feature print reproductions her 1″ x 1″ watercolor renderings from her two-year, self-imposed mission to create and complete one piece a day, and will also include a handful of New York-inspired originals, created in New York, for New York at Three Kings Studio
5. In Spontaneous Order, Pard Morrison’s signature geometric sculptural forms now expand to include large areas of uniform color, creating forms that are limitless in scope and measure at Brian Gross Fine Art
6. Scott Albrecht Here and Now plays off his graphic style of intricate typographic woodworks, colorful patterning and found object re-appropriation at Andenken Gallery

Exploring landscapes and ourselves with a mix of figurative & abstract art in today’s gallery picks.

*            *            *

1. Marco Casentini’s signature geometric abstractions composed of overlapping shapes in vibrant, contrasting colors at Brian Gross Fine Art
2. America Martin’s favorite landscape is that of the human form, her work is distinguished by a command of line and color, making playful references to both classic and indigenous art forms at Mark Gallery
3. Sometimes purely formal, other times historical, philosophical, or metaphysical, Howard Fonda’s paintings freely alternate between abstraction and figuration at Mixed Greens
4. Janaina Tschäpe explores, through multiple mediums, amorphous landscapes and their abundant luscious properties at Edourd Malingue Gallery
5. For Ali Banisadr, painting is a means to reflect visually on his thoughts, memories, and imagination. The artist thinks of his pictures as “encyclopedic worlds” where all elements come together and can be seen instantaneously at Sperone Westwater
6. Amalgamating an array of iconic imagery that exists across Romanian and American culture, Marius Bercea has created a diverse series of vibrant landscapes that fluctuate between the utopian and dystopian, between flux and stasis, blurring the boundaries between reality and imagination at Blain|Southern
