Stefano Curti

EXHIBITION DATES
May 2024 - June 2024

Stefano Curti is a figurative painter living in Whitestone, NY. Curti compiles swaths of charcoal drawings, pulling out the best results, and follows those into large oil paintings, aiming to carry out pieces that are technically clean and compositionally refined; these portraits convey the essence of the individual. His work is heavily inspired by painters such as Sargent and Boldini, and also from the brilliant compositional and iconographic choices of painters such as Ingres and Van Eyck. Curti is a draftsman before all else, using line to capture what he sees. His goal is to deliver pieces of art which vibrate, shimmer, and captivate while also staying true to the eye. This is why Curti prefers to work from life. He operates mostly in oil paint, but also uses pastel, charcoal, silverpoint, chalk, and acrylic gouache.

Rachel Phillips

Magic Ball

EXHIBITION DATES
February 2024 - April 2024

Rachel Phillips is an artist working primarily with the medium of painting. In her work, animated, cartoon-like figures express strong emotions and attitudes representing themes of everyday life and of our current times, playing off of each other in an often humorous yet disconcerting manner. Phillips’ characters are set against moody backgrounds that may either support or contradict the non-linear narratives of her imagery: not everything is as it seems. While the artist’s investigations of texture, abstraction, and/or color provide connections among elements that otherwise do not intersect. Phillip's works have appeared at solo and group exhibitions in the US and internationally. Rachel Phillips lives and works in Brooklyn, NY, and her work is represented by Microscope Gallery in New York.

Joseph Reboli

EXHIBITION DATES
July 2023 - August 2023

Joseph Reboli was an American painter based in Stony Brook, New York, known primarily for his oil paintings of local landscapes and subjects from the Three Village area and the East End of Long Island. Whether it be the back door of the Narragansett or a stack of rocks from the Mohegan Bluffs, island homes along with stretches of grass or beach have been his favorite subject matter over the years. While his interpretations are always realist in nature, emotionally they may fall somewhere between the dramatic, the mysterious and the abstract. His work has been the subject of five museum exhibitions, over 20 solo exhibitions, and numerous group shows, as well as collected by both private collectors throughout America and Europe and corporate clients.

Krista Biedenbach

ME RN AAF

EXHIBITION DATES
May 2022 - June 2022

Krista Biedenbach is an artist and educator based out of Long Island, New York. As a mixed media artist, she thrives on exploring ways to combine unassuming materials, such as tar paper, spray paint and refuse paint, with more traditional art-making media including ink, graphite, and charcoal. Her work is grounded in representation of the human form, but focuses on the emotive abstraction of the subject matter, alongside the study of movement and line throughout her imagery. Referencing the practice of both ab-ex and surrealist artists, the painting surface is often flipped, poured, stepped on, and manipulated in other ways in order to heighten the problem solving poised in each work. Influences include Willem De Kooning, Rico Le Brun, Marlene Dumas, and Georg Baselitz. No image she creates is sacred nor limited to a specific process.

Michael Krasowitz

Psychedelic Biomorphism

EXHIBITION DATES
September 2021 - December 2021

Michael Krasowitz’s work uses a balance of vibrant colors and shapes to create keys to the subconscious, pushing abstraction into a psychological experience. Inspired by the exercises of the surrealists and Asemic writing, Krasowitz created his own visual language that became the basis for his early imagery. Abstract variations of eastern characters can be seen in his pieces. Spontaneous or automatic drawing is an essential element in his work. Krasowitz challenges our conscious interpretation of his work, purposefully omitting a clear narrative, in order to create an automatic, psychological response from the viewer. Michael Krasowitz’s painting technique is rooted in the craft of under painting and glazing to create three dimensional forms.

Creative Capacity

EXHIBITION DATES
February 2021 - April 2021

Joseph Santarpia engages with the concepts of materials’ creative capacity, questions of labor, the body as machine, and the medicalized body. His multimedia studio practice includes, painting, cyanotype, collage, and video. He is most known for his large-scale abstractions of viscera and earthly topography, made with ink on synthetic paper. Santarpia’s work captures a stark contrast of darkness and luminosity, referencing a sense of visceral interiority, expansive space, and mechanic processes.

Andrea Lawl Manning

Accumulations

EXHIBITION DATES
November 2020 - December 2020

Andrea Lawl Manning is a sculptor and instillation artist working to build communities centered around creativity through interactive instillations. She creates vivid and imaginative work that challenge the viewer to rethink the traditional sculptural norms, both in her use of mediums and unique compositions. Manning's work, united by bold explorations of color, tumble forward from the wall. Gravity becomes both a liberation from flatness, and a challenge to their constitution. Collected experiments in paint are woven and tangled together, and the body emerges. Shards of paint and silicone become tongues and valves; extrusions of caulk and polyurethane become tubes and veins. Paint, image, and flatness coalesce into fleshy form at the intersection of disgust and tactile appeal.

Joseph Meloy

Decade One

EXHIBITION DATES
February 2020 - October 2020

Joseph Meloy is a visual artist born and raised in New York City. Working in a style he coined “Vandal Expressionism”, his particular brand of post-graffiti abstraction also draws heavily from AbEx, art brut, cave painting and hieroglyphics. Melding the abstract and the figurative, his work delves into the impulses of the subconscious and seeks to transcribe them spontaneously onto canvas, paper, and wall in an otherworldly yet distinctly urban visual language.  Bouncing, fluttering, twisting and interlocking, the pieces pile up and fall into place as the marks flicker in and out of representation, coalescing into abstracted impressions of the natural and manmade universe.
