Leave behind your domestic comforts and escape with a group of art shows that have been successfully bred to get along with the neighborhood inhabitants. From the taming of painterly expression at TSA to hunting narratives of Scottish landscapes inside Air Circulation, these wild art picks are charging through Bushwick this weekend!
#1 Vince Contarino: For Your Eyes Only @ TSA New York (Fri 7-10 PM)
TSA (acronym stands for Tiger Strikes Asteroid, in case you didn’t know) tames the wild animal of painterly expression with the solo exhibition of abstract painter Vince Contarino. Safe inside the gallery walls, these bold works entice the viewer with slashing gestures and hard-edge forms which ultimately lend a feeling of grace and control. The motions and expressions in Vince’s paintings guide the viewer through an experience of intimacy and subjectivity, bonding the viewer and maker like the taming between wild animal and master.
