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
in this profound exploration of realism, emotion, and the
toys that reflect our humanity.

Stories Unfolding is a group show that celebrates the timeless and evolving art of portraiture, focusing on depictions of women across a spectrum of identities, stories, and experiences.

Stories Unfol invites viewers to reflect on the power of the gaze, the narrative of femininity, and the ever-changing portrayal of women in art.

Disruption of the traditional landscape painting

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. The Body Politic: Long Island Biennial 2024 features exceptional art from contemporary artists in a compelling museum-wide exhibition. 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.

The term "memoir" as a theme refers to a collection of works that express personal memories, experiences, and stories of the artist. It's a deeply personal narrative that captures specific moments or periods in the artist's life, often evoking a sense of intimacy and authenticity.
The aim is to connect with the audience on a personal level, inviting viewers to engage with the art in a way that resonates with their own experiences and memories.

Holy Terrors is a show about family. The artist’s family albums were lost upon her family immigrating to the United States. As such, she primarily works from found black and white family portraits sourced from thrift stores, markets, vintage shops, or donated, having lost the ones from her own life and that of her forebears. Her monochromatic visions glow with kaleidoscopic color, watching the viewer watch them back in turn.
There is a constant thread of nostalgia inherent in Martins’ practice. The photos she employs frequently capture moments of wonder, melancholy, strength and vulnerability, their hollow framework inviting the viewer to find themselves in the images. The process of watercolor both captures the immediacy of childhood and like adolescence, its inevitable fading. In her words, “In Portuguese we have a term, saudade, which is nostalgia for a place you've never been or something you've never experienced. Nostalgia for imaginary experiences”. The show conjures relatable stories as she shows the joy and excitement of childhood, the angst of maturing, and the complicated dynamics of adulthood with conflicts often raging beneath the surface.

“Go Figure,” our end of year group exhibit, opens Friday, October 4th, 2024 at Ford Gallery PDX in SE Portland.

This exhibition presents new works created using reductive linocut techniques, where each colour represents a different layer carved into a block and inked in relief. The images are set in the artist's home community of Callander, a small town in northern Ontario, Canada. In a small, lakeside community that booms in the summer months with cottagers, the experience of growing up combines beauty and boredom with fantastical and mythic elements. The compositions are meant to be tableau vivants, with details that the viewer can move between to form an open-ended narrative, and where the numerous pictures work together to describe a world that blends fiction with reality. The colour palette is muted and nostalgic, while the figures direct their gaze away from the viewer, absorbed in idle introspection with a suspended sense of time.

Lupton's work weaves together individual and societal rituals, spiritual tension, and self-defining myth, thereby illuminating the various attempts at and desires for clarity. These overlaps create narratives that play out on the canvas – borrowing their basis from Greek myths, religious rituals, rock lyrics, modern dating plights, domestic routines, history, introspection, sexuality, and compulsions – as Lupton casts a contemporary world of anxiety though questions of identity, masculinity, ego, modern-day loneliness, domesticity, and mental health.

This exhibition is part of a Biennial series and group exhibition that affords us a statewide perspective and brings together artist’s work from their studios. This series has brought six artists together under a curatorial premise that included many different media such as: painting, photography, sculpture, mixed-media, drawing, studio-glass. What makes an artist’s work unique to them? This exhibition is an exploration of what it means to live in today’s world as a working artist. What keeps them coming back to the studio, to their creative lives. The exhibition will pull the curtain back into the heart of what makes these artists work in the ways they do. Using techniques, materials, and varied approaches to keep their artistic drive as interesting to them, as to encounter the result.

From September 12, 2024, VillageOneArt proudly presents the Fall 2024 survey Group Exhibition, “Stretched Out,” featuring works by a range of contemporary artists working in exploring new horizons of painting. Works by Dayana Beisenova, Chukwuemeka Anthony Chukwu, Xinxin Din, Xue Fei, James Gardner, Roast Hoggmann, Yong Eun Kwon, Gianna Putrino, Leah Schrager, Cydney Williams, Hans Wendel, Jingyu Xu, Li Xu and Xue Zheng and give a compelling insight into new directions of painting moving into the late 2024. Works on view span expressionism, photorealism and abstraction, with an expert sense of color commuting mood and meaning across the variety of subject matter these artists depict. Echoing a range of imagery, in the words of artist Gianna Putrino works on view offer, “a response to the nostalgia and desire for an imagined world.” Echoing expansion and ideation of a wider vision for the future, “Stretched Out” pushes back against the perceived limits of contemporary painting.

Nick Knight and SHOWstudio Gallery announce Shadow-Ban, an exhibition on sex in modern art, including existing and new works by artists including Nobuyoshi Araki, Ray Caesar, Dinos Chapman, Oh de Laval, Daniel Austin Lopez, Simon Foxton, Miles Greenberg, Sonny Hall, Pierre Molinier, George Rouy, Peter Saville, Michaela Stark, Emma Stern, Tom of Finland, and Von Wolfe, together with a collaboration with Tom of Finland Foundation.

Shadow-Ban defies global censorship and the restrictions placed on visual culture today. Social media posts of even the slightest sexual nature are resulting in artists and creatives being shadow-banned by the morals of an algorithm. By definition, shadow-ban means to block (a user) from a social media site or online forum without their knowledge, usually by making their posts and comments no longer visible to other users.

Established in 1984, the non-profit Tom of Finland Foundation protects, preserves and promotes the legacy of Tom of Finland, and supports LGBTQ+ artists’ creative freedom of expression.

Shadow-Ban runs at the SHOWstudio Gallery in London from 19th September-15th November.

“Imaginary Homelands” by Alicia Brown and Daisy Patton

In Imaginary Homelands, the body becomes a vessel for storytelling, exploring identity, diaspora, place, and time. Inspired by Dutch master portraiture, Alicia Brown’s gorgeously decorated figures pose as a pointed connection to the history of the Caribbean and Colonialism. Patron’s focus on women from the southwest Asia and the Northern African region speaks to her efforts to re(connect) with Iranian culture and the inferiority of women's lives which often go unrecognized despite how they carry forward family histories.

Anna Zorina Gallery is pleased to announce Relatos de Origen/Origin Stories, Alonsa Guevara’s fourth solo exhibition with the Gallery. The show features the artist’s latest series of paintings centered on exploring new beginnings and the various kinds of origin stories. These narratives include birth, but also the important moments and milestones that profoundly shape our identities, ones that often result in a sense of rebirth. Guevara’s paintings connect these personal accounts with archetypal tales that have resonated throughout humanity for millennia in order to tap into the collective unconscious, revealing the shared emotions that connect us all to our origins.

“…the visionary content of artists who make work as a direct animistic contact with the paranormal world, often mediumistically, and who do not make the work for any part of the art world canon, but rather fir personal and/or community or cultural reasons. For this exhibition we are most interested in the works that serve as vessels of real spiritual connection, whether achieved through personal or community belief, communication with or direct and immediate presentation of a vision.” Randall Morris.

The Brooklyn Artists Exhibition, illuminating the unparalleled breadth of talent in our borough. Uniting more than 200 artists, this major group show highlights the remarkable creativity and diversity of Brooklyn’s populace. The exhibition kicks off our 200th anniversary celebration and carries on the Brooklyn Museum’s tradition of amplifying voices from every corner of our community.

Reisha Perlmutter’s oil paintings capture and secure our attention with a virtuoso performance of technical accomplishment. She makes compelling images of women, submerged and moving through water, bathed in a diffuse and fluid medium that suggests an otherworldly existence. Painted in a forensically-accurate representational style, her ethereal scenarios insist on a sensuous and corporeal physicality.

Perlmutter’s deft handling confers a convincing sense of immanent reality through a rigorous rendering of tonal value, subtle colour and delicate expression of the texture of skin and hair. The aquatic world is conjured up by her skilful description of rippling, glassy reflections, sparkling effervescences and luminous modulations of the ‘chiaroscuro’ effects of a body suspended in water.

A recurrent theme is that of descent and escape into the ‘other’. The exhibition title ‘As Above, So Below’ implies a nether world of experience accessed through some form of portal. Myth, legend and religion all sanctify water sources as openings into profound spiritual experience. Reisha Perlmutter’s atmospheric and sensual paintings with their allusions to rebirth and regeneration take us closer to such experiences.

Cuturi Gallery proudly presents its annual Summer Group Show, an alluring medley of themes that delves into visual metaphors and narratives. This exhibition features the works of 10 promising Singaporean artists: Aisha Rosli, Casey Tan, Faris Heizer, Israfil Ridhwan, Joel Seow, Shen Jiaqi, Vanessa Liem, Khairulddin Wahab, Marla Bendini, and Yanqing Low. Each artist brings a distinctive style enriched by a diverse tapestry of narratives and inspirations. Their works explore themes such as the intricacies of the human psyche, the delicate nuances of femininity, the concept of masculinity, and the multifaceted experience of transgender identity. Their art also examines everyday life through cinematic vignettes, using figurative and material elements as metaphors for contemporary experiences. Additionally, the works draw on national archives to examine the evolving societal roles of women amidst Singapore’s industrialisation and the anthropogenic histories and textile art of the Southeast Asian archipelago.

Having honed their skills at esteemed local art institutions like LASALLE, NAFA, and SOTA, these contemporary artists have catapulted onto the global visual arts stage, sharing their works with audiences at large. The Summer Group Show will be on view at Cuturi Gallery from 17 A

Curated by independent curator nico w. okoro, Against Dystopia features works by ten international artists representing twelve cities across the United Kingdom, Jamaica, and all five regions of the United States. The drawings, paintings, photography, sculpture, installation, and textiles in the exhibition inhabit a spectrum of anti-dystopian thought, from mobilizing conceptualism to overcome historic traumas and the precarity of the present, to envisioning future utopias against seemingly insurmountable odds. Filtered through the lens of each artist’s distinct lived experience and approach, these works resist inheritance of the status quo, bravely working against dystopia at all costs.

Trombetta is influenced by the American Hudson River School artists known as the country’s first art movement andby the 19th C Italian artists known as the Macchiaioli (macchia-stain) who wanted to break free from the Italian academic traditions by working all aperto (outdoors). These artists fought with Giuseppe Garibaldi to unify Italy. Please visit www.garibaldimeuccimuseum for all of Annamarie Trombetta’s exhibition event.

Jenny's fourth show with Dowling Walsh, featuring cut flower still lifes and haunted interiors.

The latest body of artwork is focusing on the ever changing facade of New York City as well as abandoned buildings through out the East cost through the Midwest.
This would include theaters, schoolhouses and factories and mom & pop storefronts. This is a passion of mine is to explore and create works of art that speak of the history of a area that is disappearing from the American Landscape.
I am trying to find the right view that is not the norm from the everyday bystander.
My love of textures is a constant presence in my work and the rough surfaces are vital through the ever-changing layers of graffiti and dirt. This is also emphasized through the constant layers of paint that comes through when creating a painting.
It’s with these sometimes ugly, colorful patinas that express a moment in time that is often gone or erased through constant change of the urban environment.
It’s with this constant change as an artist to always carry a sketchbook and camera in hand, never knowing what could be and never shutting down that curiosity factor of what could be a potential painting.

For her first solo show, Kelly Robert, the Italian-based American artist presents fourteen sculptures in terra cotta and enamel, marble, and for the first time, also in bronze. Included in these is her largest work to-date: a sculpture in marble measuring 184 cm.
Robert uses the human form to explore the spiritual and bodily impact of life-changing experiences. In the artist’s own words, the idea behind each piece “is a representation, in a way, of a transitional moment, where your life is forever impacted by what's happening”. Each sculpture is an homage to such transformational shifts in being.
The term “uplift” was chosen for the title for its relation to both the emotional and material dimension of her work. Like Robert’s figures, the organic materials with which she creates her sculptures once rose, under pressure, from the depths to present themselves in their current state.
As the artist states: “It is my hope that this body of work offers us an insight into our resilience as humans just as we witness the Earth pushing itself forward in its uplift process. I want my work to remind us that even in the most difficult moments, we can push through and rise beyond what we perceive as holding us back."

This is how the conversation started: “The world is made of two forces that can only be named in relation to one another.”



And of course, someone brought up the Tao Te Ching…



which begins:



The Tao that can be told is not the eternal Tao.

The name that can be named is not the eternal name.

The nameless is the beginning of heaven and Earth.

Welancora Gallery is pleased to present Metamorphoses | Μεταμορφώσεις, a solo presentation of a suite of self-portraits and other works on paper and panel by Darryl Keith Babatunde Smith. The title of the show takes its name from Ovid’s 8 CE epic, Metamorphoses, which tells the story of the creation of the world to Julius Caesar’s death. The poem utilizes real events and mythology to confront issues related to transformation and love. Smith’s extensive research and mastery of linguistics and classical studies provide the basic framework for the works in the show, as he utilizes myth and language as a way to understand his journey as a queer Black man. In the same way that one myth flows into another in Ovid’s epic, transformations occur across and throughout Smith’s works, each of which is a representation of a state of time and being in his life. Closely following the era of Greco-Roman antiquity, Smith refers to marble statues and black-figure/red-figure vase paintings, both of which have represented African people. The delicacy and softness of Smith’s works in metalpoint, gold leaf, and egg tempera lend themselves to the artist’s self-healing, vulnerability, and reclamation of space through portraiture.

An exhibition of new works

Price's art, set against the backdrop of Provincetown, captures the unbridled freedom and visibility embraced by the queer community—a sanctuary where kinship flourishes. In his forthcoming exhibition, Price weaves inspiration from cherished works of art, many imbued with queer themes. "Evasion Redux," a homage to Jared French's "Evasion," portrays the tumultuous dance between self-acceptance and societal expectations, positioning the figure within a haven of queer solace. "First Timers" reveals three young men, bravely and provocatively exploring their sexuality publicly for the first time, basking in the glow of the sun and newfound liberation. In "Who Wants to Play," a young man uncovers enchantment by the shore.

A show examining a generation of artists trying to find and understand new forms of intimacy in a new and ever-changing world, upended by the pandemic. A collection of artists who entered grad school together, but ended apart. Each finding their own new way of surviving and creating.

Most artists tend to concentrate on their one chosen medium either in 2-D works such as painting, drawing, printmaking, photography, or in 3-D works, sculpture, ceramic, glass work, etc. - one or the other but not both. This particular show is of work by artists who pursue both 2-D and 3-D works and also Video. It will be interesting to see how these artists have expanded their creativity not limited to one medium only,

This is the 5th international exchange exhibition by 49 artists from Japan and United States.

Please enjoy their thoughts put into each small works of “art for happiness”.

A potion of sales will be donated to the Japanese Red Cross Ishikawa as a relief for the Noto Peninsula Earthquakes.

All artwork is $200 and under.

Group Exhibition: Letter from New York

Group show at the Carrie Haddad Gallery in Hudson New York featuring figurative paintings

Galerie Lucida is pleased to present Periphera, an exhibition of Contemporary Realism by local and regional artists who convene periodically to paint “en plein air,” yet maintain distinct and diverse studio practices.

Periphera upends the widely held view that Contemporary Realism is a static, straightforward depiction of reality by exposing the fluid, expressive nature of the movement.

Participating artists Jordan Baker, Kathleen Beausoleil, Charis J. Carmichael Braun, Brooks Frederick, Kristin Künc, Lisa Lebofsky, JaFang Lu, Richard T. Scott, Hyeseung Song, and Patricia Watwood embrace a common discipline, yet their approach to the medium and interpretations of subject are markedly distinct.

With the presentation of paintings representative of each artist’s personal vision and inspired use of traditional techniques, along with comparative groupings of small works from their collective excursions, Periphera straddles the porous edge where private space meets common ground and offers a multivalent glimpse into Contemporary Realist imagery.

Dick Burroughs has curated this exciting show of 1990s Album Covers reimagined by 20 artists.

Drawing from observation, memory, and imagination, Guno Park explores the ideas behind the act of figure drawing through consistent practice, constant process, and consistent progress.
Showing 70+ drawings all done within the past 5 years, Park exhibits the discipline of drawing while contemplating gesture, structure, anatomy, expression, and composition. One of the exhibition’s main goals is to help inspire the students at Hofstra University to think deeper into the art of expression through the observation of the figure.

The exhibit aims to challenge the traditional perceptions and highlight the individuality of each artist’s interpretation. The artists come from various backgrounds, cultures, and experiences, and their artworks reflect their personal experiences and perspectives on the subject.

The art exhibition not only showcases the artists’ interpretations of skin color but also serves as both a platform for discussion and a challenge to the traditional standards and perceptions. It confronts societal norms and perceptions and encourages viewers to see skin color in a new light.

The timing of the exhibit is also significant, as it comes at a time when conversations about race and representation are at the forefront of social and political discussions. The exhibit serves as a reminder of the power of art to spark awareness and bring about change.
