CHELSEA

Listed from South to North. Most galleries are open 10am-6pm Tuesday-Saturday.

Helen Frankenthaler @ Gagosian Gallery, 522 W 21st St, ends 7/2 exhibition link
Exceptional large-scale paintings from 1960s-1990s - each room presents a different decade. This is a great 1 minute video of her painting & talking about Pollock if you’re a fan!

Mark di Suvero @ Paula Cooper Gallery, 534 W 21st St, ends 7/17 exhibition link
Now 92, the works here, from late 90s to early 2004, are lyrical, physical and precarious.

Meg Webster @ Paula Cooper Gallery, 521 W 21st St, ends 7/24 exhibition link
The work begins as soon as you enter… listen to the sound of birds as you walk up the stairs and then wait for the amazing scent of forest/plants to hit your nose. When you get to 2nd floor, you can walk through a spiral of cut plants for an experience not unlike an organic Richard Serra.

Vik Muniz @ Sikkema Malloy Jenkins Gallery, 530 W 22nd St, ends 6/20 exhibition link
A brushstroke is painted, then photographed, then cut out, then arranged into a famous painting (van gogh etc) then photographed again. Get close!

Giuseppe Penone @ Gagosian, 555 W 24th St, ends 7/17 —>exhibition website
To make these massive bronze works, he carves into a tree to a particular age(s) of that tree, using the rings as a guide. He then casts that tree in bronze (yes these are bronze!) with a patina to look like wood.

TRIBECA

Katherine Bernhardt @ Canada Gallery, 60 Lispenard St, ends 6/20 exhibition link
Visually electric paintings with my favorite “puddle accidents” where colors break their defined barriers to mix in interesting ways. This new body of work features images of items, plants, and peanut butter from her home.

Mitchell Charbonneau @ Off Paradise Gallery, 120 Walker St (elevator to 5R, ends 7/7 exhibition link
What first appears to be burnt out florescent light bulbs leaning against the gallery wall are actually meticulous “sculptures” made from special glass & bronze, painted to look they way they do. The lead “wall reliefs” are also worth a much longer look.

Lynette Yiadom-Boake @ Jack Shainman Gallery, 46 Lafayette St, ends 7/31 exhibition link
Mostly life-size drawings by this exceptional painter of people - always brings me exceptional calm. The gallery is my favorite space in Tribeca and make sure to see the small side room with great paintings!
