Laura London

Like fairy tales about to reach sinister climaxes, Laura London's new photographs present spuriously romanticized views of female youth. Each portrait's idealized setup is tempered by a portentous feeling that something is amiss.The show's title, "Relocation,"...

Whitney Hubbs

Whitney Hubbs’s "Body Doubles" presents the artist's first attempts at color photography after a decade of working in black and white. Eleven midsize photographs feature anonymous women intermingling with provisional sets and props. These cropped and fractured limbs...

TRI (…ed) Revisting TRI Gallery

Artist Rory Devine has organized a perfectly exquisite gem of a show at Wilding Cran Gallery. One that revisits—with much celebratory aplomb—the artists who once exhibited at the fabled TRI Gallery back in the 1990s. Though disparate, thankfully the artists featured...

Mineo Mizuno

For Mineo Mizuno’s 2015 exhibition “Current,” the artist presented a body of work that marked a definitive shift in his practice. Unlike his earlier works which feature bold and brilliant glazes, the pieces he made for last year’s show included a selection of unglazed...

Virginia Broersma

Virginia Broersma’s exploitation of wet-on-wet painting is not simply self-indulgent, it is lavish, extravagant, and delirious, amplifying what is already a relatively excessive technique into an over-the-top visual experience, at once ecstatic and excruciating....

Chris Killip

From 1973 to 1985, Chris Killip lived among and photographed working-class and underclass communities in the north of England whose livelihoods depended on traditional heavy industry. His subjects include the declining coal mining and shipbuilding cities of Tyneside,...

Sant Khalsa

Sant Khalsa isn’t reticent about her artistic influences. In artist statements, she points to the photographs of Walker Evans, Ed Ruscha, and the Bechers as impactful on her own practice of photographing landscapes of the Southwest, particularly those of Southern...

Aaron Fowler

Every surface, each object of Aaron Fowler’s thirteen assemblage paintings in “Blessings On Blessings,” has been contemplated, touched and worked to build layers of meaning and matter that cohere and disrupt. Dimensionality—of ideas, materials, possible readings—is...

Christopher Richmond

Christopher Richmond’s “Double Fantasy,” a pairing of his videos Panthalassa (2015) and Rendezvous (2016) in his solo debut at Moskowitz Bayse, like much video work, challenges the audience, understandably not wanting to be easy or mere “entertainment.” Brimming with...

Linda Arreola

Linda Arreola’s debut as an artist was as a sculptor and installation artist. She’s also an architect; and her show, “Architect of the Abstract,” a survey of work curated by William Moreno from 2005 to 2016, is very much the work of an architect who has crossed over...
