HERE AND NOW: PORTRAITS OF NEW YORK

People are reborn in New York City. This exhibition presents distinctive works by emerging artists. Various mediums represent the identities of New Yorkers, their values, and disparate notions of collective culture.  

Small run editions encourage accessibility and  discussion that extends beyond a restricted art world. The curation is concerned with questions of historical ownership, market participation, and alternative modes of distribution. 

This multifaceted group of artists work in calligraphy, collage, digital media, glass, graffiti, painting, photography, and material items.
