Rosie Camanga

Rosie Camanga. Untitled (“good for the back”), ca. 1950-60. Ink on paper. 9” x 12 ½”.

UPCOMING
JUNE 11 – SEPTEMBER 4
 
Rosie Camanga’s tattoo flash art, segued from standardized versions of classic tattoo designs to eccentric and mysterious scenarios that were his alone. The format of a sheet of flash, crowded with multiple images, or the notion that something might be appealing to someone to wear indelibly for life, were mere jumping-off points for the world he created.

EXPANDING…OUR HORIZONS
What we thought three months ago is not true today. Like all our colleagues, we are in the process of reinvention; it’s about the closest thing to the Industrial Revolution. We are working hard to be a part of the future. We invite you to take a video walkthrough of our new gallery space.

Sindy Lutz Seascapes

“Lutz works within a mnemonic framework of visual cues that generate these specific feelings, and then modulates form, color, and cloud typology, fiddling with nuance, like a composer developing a musical theme and its variations.” – William Corwin

A Drive-By Art Show Turns Lawns and Garages Into Galleries

Featuring work by Alice Hope, Toni Ross, Bastienne Schmidt and other artists based on the South Fork of Long Island. “The exhibition was conceived by Warren Neidich, an artist and theorist who lives in Los Angeles and Berlin … ‘How do we show empathy and solidarity in this new age that is lacking in emotional solidarity?’ asked Mr. Neidich, who put the show together in less than three weeks while living in a Wainscott cottage.

Dispatches From a Land of Forced Reacquaintance
By Adam Hanft
  “Coronavirus cabining has created all measure of social experiments and personal re-imaginings. The one I want to devote this and subsequent columns to, is the way it has lifted the veil, broken the mechanism of my neural conclusion machine, and brought me the pleasure of a forced reacquaintance with art that we have owned and under-appreciated for a long time.”
