Joanna M. Wezyk: In Wonderland
Joanna M. Wezyk: In Wonderland
Pinnacle Gallery

Her early work explored the remains of ancient European churches that were either repurposed as museums, commercial spaces, or left to ruin. Her latest body of work, In Wonderland, explores the interior of an American national park and…

The Tiny Show
LITTLE BEASTS Gallery
Look closely: Little Beasts Gallery is exhibiting the work of multiple artists in miniature. Many of the works are accompanied, necessarily, with a toy magnifying glass. The Tiny Show solicits a fun curiosity absent from “normal” size works. Despite the teensy sizes of these pieces, there’s a lot of creativity and sense of humor on display.
Beneath the gallery’s sparkling…

A Revolutionary Impulse: The Rise of the Russian Avant-Garde
A Revolutionary Impulse: The Rise of the Russian Avant-Garde
MUSEUM OF MODERN ART NEW YORK
When the czarist autocracy that had ruled Russia for over 300 years collapsed, Russian artists were departing from aesthetic tradition. The rising avant guard styles were a complement to the political revolution underway. Revolutionary in their own right, these movements–suprematism, constructivism–would shape the future of nonobjective art throughout the world. A…

Blue Lagoon
Nebulous sky, low 50’s Fahrenheit, pinpricks of rain. Clouds hung low overhead, softening the daylight like dusk. In swimsuits, we eased through the lagoon. The water was a hotbed of minerals, a luminous aquamarine substance that’s chalky, opaque. Steam rose up around us, mingling with the fog so that we could see only the silhouettes of others drifting. The warmth of the water, the hazy…

Ceci N'est Pas Une Pomme
Ceci N’est Pas Une Pomme
Marc and I met on a windy afternoon in September. I was sitting on the stone edge of the gardens surrounding Jeu de Paumes when he came over, dressed in grey joggers with windswept hair. No, I thought. I didn’t like him at first glance, but together, we went into the gallery. He’d been shopping for an 80’s sleeveless denim jacket that morning. “I get into these obsessions,” he said. He spoke in a…

Stuart Davis: In Full Swing
In Full Swing Stuart Davis Whitney Museum of American Art, New York American modernist painter, Stuart Davis (b. 1982), believed that art should offer insight into everyday experiences.

August Sunday: Coffee on the Ferry, Open-Air Shopping, Negroni Variations
I’ve worked almost the entire summer. All season long: 6 day work weeks, overtime, exhaustion. It’s Wednesday now, but I’m still basking in the glow of last Sunday, when I saw the sun for what felt like the first time. On Sunday, I slept in, strolled down Second Avenue for coffee, then down to the water front to catch the East River Ferry from midtown to Dunborn. It was the most leisurely option…

All the Light We Cannot See
All the Light We Cannot See
All the Light We Cannot See, Anthony Doerr, Scribner, 2014 Come now. You’ve never heard of the Sea of Flames? Legend has it that the 133 carat diamond–pear shaped, sea blue outer edges and flaming red at it’s core–possess a curse equivalent to it’s worth. The keeper of the stone would live forever, but so long as he kept it, misfortunes would fall on all those he loved one after another in…

Al-ugh-ories
Al-ugh-ories Nicole Eisenman New Museum, New York Coping, 2008, Oil on canvas The narrative compositions of Nicole Eisenman’s Al-ugh-ories address the mix of human behavior in situations extreme or banal. A festive evening in a beer garden, the artist in his studio, a man in bed—all are commentary on mainstream or counter culture. Her oil paintings—large scale and masterfully rendered—tell a…

Sweetbitter
Sweetbitter, Stephanie Danler, Knopf, 2016 Danny Meyer, the crowned-King of modern hospitality, has a tenet of employee composure, divided into slightly unbalanced halves: to succeed as a restaurant professional (that’s professional of any position, front or back of house), one must first possess the “fifty-one percent,” an innate sense of hospitality, warmth and personality. The other…
