We’re coming back from an uncommon first month of art in 2016. Outstripping the usual art world happenings, Lisa Levy’s performance “The Artist is Humbly Present” took place at Christopher Stout Gallery (CSGNY), wherein the art of the ‘gaze’ triumphed over all. It felt daring to stare into the artist’s eyes as she stared back, challenging you and the surrounding onlookers. Another daring set of works will take their place this Friday at CSGNY with “Neither Coincidence, Nor Destiny” (he claims not destiny, but somehow it feels meant to be).
Of considerable note is Paul D’Agostino’s solo show at Life on Mars, where the artist will bare his practice’s origins through two divergent bodies of work. Amos Eno Gallery’s recent move to 56 Bogart sets the lower level up for a “Blood Moon” viewing, and there’s more to see from Space B and Anthony Philip Fine Art, as well as our recommendations for the weekend gallery hours.
