Repose: Alanis Forde + Akilah Watts; Curated by John Wolf
1969 Gallery presents, in collaboration with John Wolf, Repose, a two-person exhibition featuring the works of Alanis Forde and Akilah Watts, both artists-in-residence at Mana Contemporary. Our collective experience of repose has transformed throughout history. During a time when perspectives on labor and stillness are in deep flux, here we receive a glimpse into the cultural projection of repose as these two Barbadian artists reflect their lived experience of growing up in an “island paradise”.

Paintings and Works on Paper; Stanley Lewis
As a painter, I often look straight down at the grass and say that I am going to paint every blade of grass. How it is done is impossible to understand, but it starts at the micro level. ~ Stanley Lewis, 2022 Betty Cuningham Gallery is pleased to open an exhibition of new work by Stanley Lewis. This will be the artist’s fourth show with the Gallery, located at 15 Rivington Street.

Between the Surface; Rusty Shackleford
Rusty Shackleford’s work has always been something of a masquerade: paintings hiding as photographs, photographs hiding as paintings, collage as assemblage, movement as static, layers as flat.

Ecologies of Care; Ani Liu
Ecologies of Care showcases a series of new works created during the artist’s postpartum period, in contemplation of the labor of mothering.

Square Paintings and a Stripe Painting; Lauren Luloff
Lauren Luloff's first exhibition with the gallery, presenting a series of 12 new works. Luloff’s organic, flowing forms play with the dichotomy of chaos and order, the dissonant and the harmonious. The artist’s time-based process of mark-making – brush-painting dyes onto silk then steaming the fabric to let the dyes seep in – recalls symbiosis and growth found in the natural environment.
34 E Broadway, New York, NY

Approaching a Chaotic Reality; Yana Bystrova
Yana Bystrova is an artist from Kyiv, Ukraine. In this show she presents works in acrylic on canvas that were influenced by her country’s struggle to become a free nation. Abstract works painted beginning in 2008 include two featuring yellow and blue, the colors of the Ukrainian flag. Landscapes painted in France in 2014, during Russia’s invasion of Crimea, carry an underlying sense of the drama taking place in her home country. A percentage of sales from Yana Bystrova: Approaching a Chaotic Reality will be contributed to Razom for Ukraine to support Ukraine in the war, to fight for peace and freedom.
59 Orchard Street, New York, NY 10002
May 19 - June 23, 2022
Liminal New York; Gwyneth Leech
Liminal New York features a selection of paintings from Gwyneth Leech, chronicling the evolution of New York City’s skyline. Equal parts documentarian and poet, Leech’s paintings center on internal frameworks, scaffolding and other temporarily visible structures; architectures that only exist as other architectures takes shape. Liminal New York observes these gestations from foundation to finish, capturing the transient adolescence of Manhattan’s future giants.

SPEED OF LIGHT; Henry Biber, Leslie Ford, Augustus Goertz, Francie Lyshak, Francesca Schwartz, and Pamela J. Wallace
SPEED OF LIGHT brings together work that incorporates the element of light as an integral and essential part of its composition, technique and medium. Light, by its inherent means, is an elusive agent that when applied successfully has a significant and distinguishing effect on medium and composition that makes the difference between a mere presence of an art work and the experience of an illuminating far beyond reaching, radiating aura that alludes to an infinite and eternal existence of creation. The artists in this exhibition work individually differently but what brings them together is the element and employment of light by all its various connotations. Curated by Priska Juschka with a Walk Through and Reception, THURSDAY, JUNE 16 | 6-8 PM.

55 Orchard Street, New York, NY
May 20 - June 26, 2022
Gary Petersen
In his third solo show with the gallery, Gary Petersen creates exuberantly colored abstract paintings using irregular geometric shapes, curving lines, and layered space. Notable in this new body of work is Petersen's use of vivid but disarmingly sophisticated color, coupled with a greater use of curvilinear shapes. Forms stretch and bounce across the pictorial fields, acting as taut screens or linkages across varying zones delineated by energetic linear elements or deliberate bisections in the compositions. Playful and energetic, Petersen's taut compositions are simultaneously static and dynamic, suggesting a world in constant flux.
41 Orchard St.
May 26 - July 16, 2022
GARDEN PARTY; KEISHA PRIOLEAU-MARTIN
Olympia is delighted to present Garden Party, Keisha Prioleau-Martin’s first solo exhibition with the gallery. Named for dreamy lands of soil overgrown with leaves and twigs, garden parties are pillowy sites for conversation, indulgences, and communal growth. In these works, fantastical narratives of everyday interactions press against urban life, full of light, color and pattern. These are calm and searching scenes, that bask in queerness and joyful unity.

May, 7 - July 22, 2022
"It Flows Through" Nicholas Galanin

Vessels; Stanley Rosen
SHFAP presents “Vessels,” our third one-person exhibition of ceramics by Stanley Rosen, exploring Rosen’s expanded conception of the vessel. Rosen’s ceramic sculptures may evoke architectural monuments, such as ancient temples or natural phenomena like coral reefs. His work includes vase shapes, often made by hand with a technique of pinched clay aggregated into forms. Less common are vase forms made on the wheel. What unites his pots and sculptures is the way space moves around and through them.

May 19 - June 18, 2022

THE NEED; Maru Quiñonero
Voltz Clarke Gallery is pleased to present The Need, a comprehensive solo show featuring new works by artist Maru Quiñonero. Maru Quioñero’s passion for volume, shape, texture, color and material has driven her to define compositions that visualize her own creative universe. Her Color and Vacuum series has been in development since 2017, serving to facilitate a conversation between color and emptiness. Through these extensive monochromatic studies, Quiñonero explores form beyond plastic expression, tapping into a process of possibility that continually draws from her lived experiences. The Need is the latest iteration of this venture, consisting of a capsule collection of works revolving around red and pink hues.
