"Twelve Artists from Ulster County" Exhibition
Trestle Gallery (at Brooklyn Art Space)
This event has ended.
Ulster Country has the largest concentration of artists per capita of anywhere in the country. The amount of talent and critically acclaimed work is astonishing. Brooklyn Artists Gym is proud to bring the work of twelve top artists to the city for two weeks, starting May 14.
From the rich, iconic images of Yale Epstein to the darkly playful figures of Polly Law, from the mysterious mixed-media drawings of Meredith Rosier to the mythical ceramics of Kim Alderman, from the luscious and moving photographs of Bernard Gerson to the extraordinary assemblages of Lenny Kislin, Twelve mixes powerful works that end up in surprising conversations with each other.
The other artists featured in Twelve are Chris Hawkins (expressionist, painterly figures), Anique Taylor (colorful wall sculptures exploring women’s journeys), Kate McGloughlin (minimalist monoprint landscapes), Leslie Bender (prints evoking childhood memories), Mark Kanter (dynamic, rhythmic abstractions) and Rosalind Robertson (evocative works on paper created in the ocean). The show has been curated by Christie Scheele, the well-known Hudson-valley artist, and Peter Wallace, the founder of BAG.
