This event has ended.

In celebration of its 30th Anniversary, the Michael Ingbar Gallery goes back to its architectural roots and presents Concrete Erections II: Only In New York. This group exhibition showcases several of our most established artists, as well as selected new talents, as they share a subject near and dear to all of our hearts- New York City. From each of their unique vantage points, these artists paint our architecturally astounding city, resplendent with diversity, personality, and intimacy that can be experienced only as a true New Yorker.

Our city humbly offers itself as a muse to these artists, who then transfer the passion of New York onto canvas with their brushstrokes of oil and acrylic. Voluptuous curves are hard at play in a fantastical rendering of the original Municipal Asphalt Plant’s parabolic arch structure. The flimsiness of playing cards gives rise to a structurally sound interpretation of the Empire State Building. Whether it’s the grit and grime of our subway stations beautifully articulated through meticulously rendered oils, or a rainbow of geometry entangling itself in an abstracted utopia of Manhattan, there is a continuity and focus that is utterly, and found only, in New York.
