In this exhibition of oil paintings and installation, Patrica Watwood’s work is inspired by the playfulness of the Rococo, set in the faerie and imaginative world of the Fey realm of Titania, with a meta-narrative of theatrical trans queer magick and romantic extravagance. Installation elements invite viewers to move through the gallery spaces as they leave behind the world as we know it, and travel into the inner realm of the Faerie Court, a universe of matriarchy, queerness, mysterious beauty, tolerance, inclusion, sensuality and collaboration with spiritual forces. In the Fey Wild, one can expect disorientation and anarchistic egalitarianism that values pleasure, mystery, the delights of entertainment, and the overthrow of business as usual. It is a land of contradictions, bright yet dark, beautiful yet deadly, and full of endless wonder.

With this presentation, Watwood is expanding on her narrative subject matter to create an experience of visual art in a theatrical dimension that invites viewers to consider the place of the imagination to transform our ideas about the possibilities of imagination and the world of reality.

Artists display multiple works they have made through the years and are able to see their personal growth.

Members of the vibrant Garner Arts Center come together to show their work.

Founded in 1974, Small is Beautiful brings together a selected group of contemporary artists working in all disciplines to present works confined to a small-scale format, each piece no larger than 7x9 inches. The exhibition offers artists a chance to engage with scale within their own practice and has long served as a platform to highlight smaller works by internationally recognized names and introduce new talents.

Daniel Austin Lopez’s sculpture of the singer Joey Arias has joined Arias’s archives at the permanent collection of Houghton Library at Harvard University.

Stephen is a New York City based artist working in several different mediums including mokuhanga, relief linocut, and oil painting. He graduated with a Masters in Fine Art from the New York Academy of Art in 2009 where he studied traditional painting and drawing techniques. Currently, Stephen is focusing on the combination of Japanese woodblock prints and reductive linocut printmaking together. Oil painting continues to be an ongoing practice for the artist that inspires compositional exploration.

300+ artists across 90 locations in Gowanus are opening their doors, giving the public a peek inside former factories, current warehouses and art studio buildings. I'll be in my studio to sharing work based on an expedition to the Svalbard last year with the Arctic Circle Residency. Studios will be open Saturday and Sunday Oct 18 and 19 from 12-6pm.

In 2014, Long Island-based artist and astronomer Randall DiGiuseppe (b.1969) along with Chinese poet and Nobel Prize candidate Huang Xiang (b.1941) embarked together on an art project never done prior.

The collaboration was inspired by two years of stargazing sessions through Randall’s 12” Dobson telescope at various locations on Long Island and the East Coast. They focused on star clusters, nebulae, galaxies, etc., many of which are only visible during certain times of the year.
By 2016, eighteen large scrolls containing fantasy art and poetry inspired by the night sky were made on archival black paper. Randall painted each scroll in acrylic and gouache while Huang Xiang infused his poetry and calligraphy. The duo named their scrolls "Nocturnes" as a tribute to John Field (1782-1837), Irish composer and founder of the nocturne. The final scroll was completed in September 2025.

"Nocturnes: A Collaboration for the Cosmos" invites be inspired by and reflect upon wonders of the night sky. Dream, create and ask big questions. All are welcome.

2025 Art Alumni Exhibition

Visionary Art Collective x Warnes Contemporary
Virtual Exhibition & Print Catalog
Curated by Victoria J. Fry

The word resonance comes from the Latin resonare, meaning "to re-sound" or "to sound together." In music, it describes the reverberation of tones. In physics, it refers to the amplification of energy.

In life—and in art—resonance is the stirring of emotion, memory, and meaning. It is the unseen echo that lingers long after the initial encounter.

For this exhibition, we’ve featured work that explores this theme—whether through visual metaphors, emotional tone, or the literal or abstract interplay of form, light, and space. What does it mean for something to stay with us, to echo inwardly, to feel undeniably personal and alive?

Featured Artists:
Lydia Kinney, Catrin Perih, Wendy Born, Jessica Krause Smith, Nicolle Cure, Matt Panuksa, Narmin Kassam, Heide Follin, Lizz Freeman, Corinne Whittemore, Latika Sridhar, Charlie Serotoff, Catherine Hawthorn, Xin Lu, Annie Norbeck, Jason Engelbart, Rachael O’Shaughnessy, Kim Tateo, Patricia Dattoma,

September 25 — November 9, 2025

"Folding Time" brings together the works of Jenny Flexner Reinhardt and Antoinette Wysocki in a vivid dialogue of surface, rhythm, and layered meaning. Reinhardt transforms plastic, collage, and fragments of advertising into luminous abstractions that fold, pleat, and compress into sculptural presence. Her works reflect on impermanence, material excess, and the strange shimmer of contemporary life, elevating everyday detritus into charged visual form.

In contrast and in kinship, Wysocki’s paintings pursue layering through painterly gesture and symbolism. Botanical forms, mythic references, and rhythmic marks overlap to suggest cycles of growth, memory, and renewal. Where Reinhardt’s surfaces gleam with synthetic intensity, Wysocki’s canvases breathe with organic motion, mapping a more intuitive, nature-based accumulation.

Sidereal draws its name from the stars, evoking the ancient practice of navigating by constellations. In this exhibition, Kimberly Callas presents sculptures, drawings, and 3D-printed reliefs that trace the body’s entanglement with ocean and cosmos. Nets rendered in painted filament, whales woven into labyrinths of ink and muslin, tidal moons sculpted in Winterstone, and swimmers collaged from constellations appear as archetypal figures of passage and transformation. Works such as Night Swimmer and In the Beginning There Were Tears speak to grief and surrender, while Red Sky Fish and The Waves reflect the rhythm of tides and warning skies. Together, these pieces map a journey through night and water, where human and oceanic bodies converge, and where to “again navigate by stars” is both poetic return and ecological necessity.

Peter Leeds is a contemporary traditional painter based in Westchester, NY, whose work is rooted in realism and infused with heartfelt storytelling. Born and raised in suburban Long Island in the 1980s, Peter grew up in a blue-collar household where education, hard work, and family values shaped his life. His father, an elementary school teacher, and his mother, an emergency room nurse, surrounded him with adventure books of N.C. Wyeth and the art of Andrew Wyeth and Jamie Wyeth. These vivid images of pirates from ‘Treasure Island’, cloaked characters from ‘Robin Hood’, and pastoral landscapes sparked his imagination and inspired him to see art as a way to connect generations.

Peter earned his BFA from SUNY Cortland College and his MFA in anatomical drawing and figurative painting from the New York Academy of Art. He works in oil, watercolor, acrylic, and pencil, drawing on Old Masters’ techniques, literature, and nature to create a visual journal of his life. His personal art often centers on family and friends, capturing the romance of everyday moments with intimacy and depth.

In addition to his studio work, Peter is known for his large-scale mural commissions in Westchester and New York City.

Lauren Woods has a video included in Under the Three-Faced Moon, a group exhibition by WomensWork.Art in Poughkeepsie, NY. The exhibition explores themes of female identity, spirituality, and rebirth through the experiences of women and non-binary artists.

Arcadia Contemporary presents "Guardians and Exiles" an exhibition of new paintings by Jesse Stern.

In Chromatic Mythologies, color becomes a conduit for storytelling, used to map identity, memory, emotion, and inherited experience. The works in this exhibition span figuration, illustration, and abstraction, where color, concept, and form carry the weight of personal and cultural meaning. Some artists draw from ornamentation and symbolism; others from portraiture or landscape, using visual references to heritage, nature, and the self. Across these approaches, color operates as both mood and method, shifting between clarity and distortion, intimacy and distance. Whether through densely layered scenes or minimal gestures, these works use color interaction, line, and structure to build narrative spaces that are both grounded and surreal. Each piece positions color as the central vehicle for introspection and transformation.

This series emerges from the tangled brush of my hometown in Upstate New York—a place that for me has always been both sanctuary and snare. Through the synthesis of shape, material, and symbolism, I reimagine home as a place where memory evolves into myth, and the truth, if it exists at all, is never whole.

I was interviewed for NPR's Art on the Air radio show/podcast where I discussed my journey and process as an artist.

Half Absence -Traces of Light, which reflects on presence, memory, loses, and what remains with us


(After time, distance, and change — what remains within us becomes the
light we follow.)

A contemporary art project celebrating the beauty of the three watersheds that provide drinking water to New York City.
Starting in May 2024, this collaborative effort between professional artists and land planners aimed to create a contemporary portrait of the watersheds. Over the course of 18 months, our team embarked on an immersive journey, conducting field visits, documenting the process through plein air sketches and paintings, video, engaging in on-site research with local experts and historians, and channeling their findings into fully developed studio works.

Independent curator Lauren Hirshfield is excited to present Something between knowing and not, a group show of new and recent work by Corinne Beardsley, Noémie Jennifer Bonnet, Marieken Cochius, and Angela Conant. The selected sculptures and drawings intersect found, foraged, and readymade materials with the intangible wrangling of the human body. The four women are signaling towards a symbiosis between body, self, and place and their attempts at quantifying this complex relationship. The intuitive nature of each artist’s process fuels the methodologies explored in this show, while the overlapping choices in materials - both organic and manmade - and the varied means in which each material is manipulated furthers this investigation into the fluid, powerful, sometimes unknowing, and often fragile connection we share with our environments. Like the title suggests, embracing the space between knowledge and instinct defines the synergy of this exhibition.

“Bringing together UK and US artists at this time of global unrest and uncertainty.

i Manifest interrogates the concept of manifestation on many levels, focusing on multiple dualities which exist on a continuum of nothing-to-something; real-to-fake; physical-to-AI; sub-conscious-to-conscious; sticky floor-to-glass ceiling. To reflect this blurring of perceptions & boundaries, many of the works contain dream-like qualities reminiscent of a kind of 'new surrealism’.

This exhibition plays with the ‘existential’ hanging in the air. One American writer of Mark Fraser-Betts’ acquaintance asserted that the universe is currently undergoing a cosmic cycle that is beyond our comprehension. So, in reflecting the incomprehensible, what collective identity can the artists in this show share? Despite, or maybe because of the challenges of this shifting landscape, all of the artists in this show strive to maintain the authenticity of their artistic endeavours while remaining playful and inquisitive.”

Rodz's work examines the beauty found in the everyday and often overlooked aspects of life. As she puts it, “My art is an exploration of the beautiful mundane—asphalt, weeds, and suburban banality. I create the sensation of déjà vu for a place one has or never has been.”

Jenny Brillhart is curious about the unexpected and often overlooked—places and materials plucked from everyday life that arrest her attention. Placed in three-dimensional arrangements in the studio or photographed and assembled in collages, the common and quotidian become subjects for her spare, elegant compositions. Rendered in subtle tones, with considered notes of strong color, there is an atmosphere of stillness in her paintings. Light and shadows describe the forms. The influence of Shaker design and craftsmanship runs deep, as do the Precisionist paintings of Charles Scheeler. Shape, space, and gravity are defined by her masterly mark-making.

NAWA 136th Annual Members Exhibition
June 6 – 21, 2025. Showing in person at the Leonovich Gallery (520 W 24th street, New York NY 10011) Tuesdays-Sundays 12pm to 6pm.

Bare Tides invites viewers to witness the male figure at ease, at rest, and in quiet moments of belonging. Each painting reflects Price’s careful attention to the landscape, light, and the emotional space where body and environment meet. Through his use of color, composition, and memory, Price offers a space where queerness, identity, and place come together—where even the simplest moment can hold meaning.

In these works, the beach is not just a setting; it is a collaborator and a witness, a place where the figure finds a sense of comfort and transformation. Bare Tides is an invitation to pause, to reflect, and to see the beauty in the quiet moments between the tides.

On Saturday, June 14, the gallery opens to the public with its debut exhibition “Look Again.” The show, which will be on view through August 13, features paintings by Andrea Olivia, Rina Kim, Oneslutriot, and Hopkins himself, as well as ceramic sculptures by Robbie Ginsberg. From Olivia’s intimate portraiture that explores her Black trans identity to queer anonymous artist Oneslutriot’s fierce paintings that span body politics and LGBTQ issues, “Look Again” asks viewers to move beyond the surface to explore the artists’ own process of experimentation. “We’re especially excited to champion emerging voices,” says Luu.

LATITUDE Gallery New York is pleased to present Jeweled Realms, a solo exhibition by Amy Liu, whose newest body of work meditates on the poetics of ornamentation, the inner life of objects, and the symbolic language of beauty. Drawing from a rich lineage of European painting and decorative arts, Liu reclaims the ornamental not as frivolous excess, but as a profound conduit of human longing, resilience, and transcendence.

Artists have used storytelling to fill gaps in history, reframe present-day narratives, and imagine alternative futures. Flushing Town Hall has invited artists to submit artwork that embraces storytelling and speculative narration as creative tools to address gaps in history and misunderstood identities. Referencing the liberation stories behind Juneteenth and Pride as potential starting points, artists deeply examined these and other historical narratives to unearth stories that remain unsung.

“Painting Today” is an online juried exhibition that explores how painters are engaging with and challenging traditional approaches to the medium.

Laura Karetzky's artistic approach involves challenging traditional narrative structures. She achieves this by merging multiple moments into a unified, believable instance, which alters the viewer's understanding of time and perspective. Her works evoke the feeling of simultaneously experiencing multiple narratives, rather than being confined to a single, linear story.

Karetzky’s double-sided works feature cut-out openings in the picture plane, inviting the outside world in and creating space for unpredictable relationships to emerge. Others are one-sided yet convey a friction of time through layered points of view. In today’s turbulent political and social climate, her practice interrogates the very nature of truth—what it means to tell it, obscure it, or exist within its many competing versions.

A hybrid of oil painting, clay sculpture, woodcut, and sgraffito, her compositions carve paint into relief surfaces, apply ceramic glazes to render illusionistic space, and push the boundaries of the rectangular canvas. “I am asking myself and my materials to perform in diverse ways, as one idea becomes several, while exploring the condition of being in perpetual juxtaposition with other spaces,” Karetzky explains. In doing so, her work does more than depict reality—it destabilizes it

Everyday Heaven is a transhistorical exhibition about rural America and specifically rural Wisconsin. The presentation brings together two unlikely, yet perfectly paired, artists — Rafael Francisco Salas (b. 1973) and Charles Van Schaick (1852-1946).

Together, the artwork of Salas and Van Schaick contradict assumptions about what it means to live in rural America, who can lay claim to its identit(ies), and how poetry and history can interweave to create a mysterious and haunting record of where we live.

A collection of 40+ small pieces; Portraits, animals, landscapes, and still lifes.

Salmagundi Club presents a showcase of exceptional contemporary figurative art. Situated in the heart of New York City’s vibrant art world, the SCNY Humans25 is an overview of representational art that focuses on the human figure and face, as seen in the context of New York City and contemporary life.

This array of painting, photography, drawing, and sculpture, explores themes of portraiture, nudes, clothed figures, and narratives that center on the human form.

The basis of This Art Fair is formed by the solo presentations of individual artists. We offer artists the opportunity to independently present and sell their art in a professional and organized way. Doing so This Art Fair offers an alternative to the traditional business models in the art world, in which galleries and art dealers play an essential role.

In addition to the fair, we support our participating artists through This Works, an ongoing programme of masterclasses, workshops and network meetings for all professional artists.

Nicolas Blair: Castro to Christopher, Gay Streets of America 1979 - 1986
April 11th – September 27, 2025
Includes an interpretive sculpture by Daniel Austin Lopez.

Blair documented the narrow window of time between 1979 and 1986, after Stonewall and before the worst days of the AIDS epidemic, when there was a period of giddy, blossoming gay life in places often seen as "gay paradises." San Francisco’s Castro District, New York’s Christopher Street and Fire Island, and Provincetown, Massachusetts, were best known. If the shadow of AIDS were not lingering over these photographs, it would be as though they were showing us an alternate universe where full legal equality for LGBTQ people could have come much sooner. These historic images encapsulate some of the few places in America where, for the very first time and very brief while, it was OK to be gay.

South Shore Arts is excited to present "TECHNICOLOR," a unique group installation of eleven artworks created by eleven different artists specifically for this exhibition at the Substation No 9 gallery at 435 Fayette Street, Hammond, IN. Highlighting the diversity of both thought and technique, each artist was allowed to create freely on their canvas with the only rule being that the predominant color must be the one that was selected. The eleven artworks on display run the gambit from realism to abstraction to minimalism. Inspired by the old Technicolor logo, the exhibit comes together in a singularly colorful installation quite unlike any other in Northwest Indiana. 

A collaborative exhibition by eleven artists of the PARADICE PALASE membership network in collaboration with GLORIA'S Project Space. The selected works from each artist unite in a medley of small and large scale paintings and drawings along with hanging fiber sculpture, video installation, clay wall sculptures, and mixed material forms.
"Dream Junk & Cosmic Dust" dwells in the murky territory of unfinished business and inner shadows. It asks: what haunts us, and why do we take pleasure in the haunting? The exhibition embraces the ephemeral and the cosmic, the mystical and the consumerist cycle, surfacing symbols and traces from other dimensions, mythologies, and personal memories. United by an intuitive resonance, the works weave a complex, haunting atmosphere - one that seduces even as it unsettles. Whether it’s the shell of an object, the echo of a past life, or the orbit of a discarded thing we can’t quite let go, these works hold space for the experiences that pass through us, forming a mythology of daily life; a visual spell cast from the tension between decay and transcendence.

The Companion is a crude life-size foam puppet Beardsley performed with in her Brooklyn apartment during isolation in the first few months of COVID 2020. Through observational humor and parodying the theater of influence, The Companion was “thriving in uncertain times”. Embedded in this project is the Pygmalion / Galatea power dynamic between the sculptor and enlivened object of affection. The two performed their own reality show, highlighting the absurdity of quarantining with a puppet boyfriend, and #relationshipgoals.

In celebration of The Companion’s fifth birthday this March, Practice Gallery is revisiting this performance. The audience is invited to select a random prompt to get to know The Companion in the domestic installation. Practice Gallery also presents photo albums, videos, and ephemera from the 2020 performances.

Taking place in late February, when patience for winter wears thin and longing for spring grows stronger, Seasons of Change explores the overlooked details of the natural world,
transforming them into vibrant, abstract compositions. Ball’s work captures the raw immediacy of the
subconscious, allowing for gestural surprises and composition driven by instinct rather than rigid
structure. The sheer washes of ink and color pool organically across the canvas, mirroring the
movements and physical properties of nature itself. This method reflects an influence of Chinese ink and
wash painting, where brush tip concealment, fluidity, and the capturing of energy take precedence over
strict realism. Ball’s creative process has been deeply influenced by major life transitions. After five years working in her New Orleans garden studio, she relocated to Alabama mid-residency. This shift — a new studio, new surroundings, and the transformative experience of becoming a mother — reshaped both her practice and perspective. From the native foliage and tropical wildlife to the ever-present warmth of the southern climate, in this new series we see Ball’s signature inviting botanicals and imagined worlds transition from one life to another.

Ocean Bodies explores the interconnectedness of humanity and the ocean, addressing themes of ecological consciousness and the climate crisis. Much of the artwork was created during Callas’s artist residency with the Urban Coast Institute, with additional research conducted at the Archive for Research in Archetypal Symbolism (ARAS) and the Arts Quarter Budapest. This project represents a collaboration between art and science, aiming to merge archetypal symbols and ecological science to inspire a deeper understanding of our place within the natural world and foster meaningful environmental action.

For her second solo exhibition at Monya Rowe Gallery, Milez continues to examine the impact of motherhood and the complex changes—psychologically and physically—that accompany it.

A group show with professional artists. Juried and arranged by «Østfold visual artists», in Halden, Norway.

In this solo exhibition, Jodi masterfully balances darkness
and light to highlight themes of innocence, resilience, and
hope. Through her realistic paintings, Jodi uses bright colors
and everyday toys to create a striking metaphor for our
shared humanity.

In Jodi’s world, toys are more than simple playthings-they
symbolize the complexity and resilience of the human spirit.
Each painting invites viewers to find hope and resilience in
the mundane, urging us to see the light amidst the darkness.
By juxtaposing vivid, bright colors against shadowy
backgrounds, Jodi’s work emphasizes the fragility and
beauty of innocence in a complex world.

Her artwork speaks to the power of compassion and the
enduring strength of the human spirit, encouraging us to
embrace the light even in the darkest of times. Join us

Long Island City Artists presents:
LICA @ Atlantic : PERSPECTIVES, 2025
A collective group exhibition of LIC-A artists at artist-run Atlantic Gallery in Chelsea.
I have 2 works from my "Analog Imagination" series included.

Houston artist Saralene Tapley presents Familiar, a series of 13 portraits featuring the faces of celebrities, politicians and social media influencers. The works mostly range around 4 x 3 feet in size, resulting in exaggeratedly oversized faces. Tapley chose these faces based on her connection to the expression and personality of the subject; a purely intuitive selection. Having seen these faces so often on social media and TV, it was almost as if she had met her subjects, and knowing every angle of their faces, it was not difficult to ascertain if the likeness was satisfactory. The portraits are anonymous, and not titled by name in order to allow the viewer to guess the subject. Tapley's painting process further deconstructs the identity of her subject. The faces are drawn and sketched out at an exaggerated scale, and then built up with paint through a puzzle like methodology that is almost sculptural. The proportions and color relationships are tested, considered and reconsidered through the construction process. The approach is slow, exact, and therapeutic, leaving Tapley with a great sense of satisfaction once the jigsaw comes together.

In 2024—a year of global elections, as some 60 countries representing half of the world’s populations hold regional and national leadership votes—The Heckscher Museum of Art invited Long Island artists to submit work which engages with contemporary social, cultural, or political issues.

I am honored to have my painting, “InDecision”, included in this exhibition. The jurors for the 2024 Long Island Biennial were Ian Alteveer, Beal Family Chair of the Department of Contemporary Art, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; Patricia Cronin, sculptor, Artistic Director of the LGBTQ+ VR Museum and Distinguished Professor of Art, Brooklyn College; and Grace Hong, Assistant Director, Galerie Lelong & Co.

Kravets Wehby Gallery is pleased to announce Buket Savci’s solo exhibition, Beautiful Aliens. Please join us for the opening reception on Thursday, October 17, 2024, 6-8PM. In this new body of work, Buket’s worlds expand and intertwine.

Now that Buket has spent years growing her life in Brooklyn, she realizes New York City is made of survivalists. The level of resilience required for the human experience is greater here. As part of her practice, Buket yearns to see the good in people and paint them in an adoring light. For her sumptuous paintings, she gathers friends, friends of friends, and strangers and immortalizes a moment of careful interdependence. Her goal is to create a space where basic needs are met and prejudice is forbidden. She asks them to wear bright colors and patterns to ward off negativity. Buket also asks participants to bring a something that comforts them, such as a stuffed animal, that becomes integral to the ecosystem of the pile. The spiral of people holds their dreams, hopes, and vulnerabilities while new connections are made.

“UNEXPECTED CONNECTIONS & SERENDIPITOUS ENCOUNTERS “ CURATED BY JESSICA ANN PEAVY & DARIO MOHR
This exhibition explores the delicate interplay between control and chance, asking whether we can intentionally create space for serendipity and unexpected connections. The artists featured navigate this tension, balancing external forces of luck with the intimate, enduring process of creation. Through their work, we examine the unpredictability of inspiration and the possibilities that arise when we embrace both the deliberate and the unforeseen.

I will be sharing work from my past and recent travels to Svalbard, Norway with the Arctic Circle Residency, an amazing group of artists and creatives. On display will be over 40 arctic inspired works from 2010 to 2024, including paintings, drawings and prints.
