We thank the Middle East Institute at Columbia University (MEI) for sharing Anas Albraehe's The Dreamer. MEI promotes the interdisciplinary study of the Middle East and North Africa together with associated regions of Central Asia, South and Southeast Asia, Sub-Saharan Africa and related global communities.
Anas Al Braehe is a core case study in Mira El-Khalil’s research on artists from minorities. His work is an example of an innate talent that was formed in nature by the will of Al Braehe’s sensitivity to his special environment. El-Khalil saw in Al Braehe a talent like no other in the Beirut art scene and got to know him and his paintings through an in-depth interview lead for her Master’s degree dissertation.

"Women's Art Doesn't End at the Outer Labia is Garbasz’s photographic ode to“marginalized identity” in all its conceptual forms. Garbasz confronts taboos of trauma, memory, and identity—using herself and her past and the locations of historic tragedies as subjects—presenting them boldly with sincerity. - Nikkala Kovacevic
"Yishay has worked with communities affected by war and has experienced disability, abuse, and trauma. She refers to trauma, disability, and other marginalizing attributes as invisible, because unless one is experiencing them, they tend not to see or acknowledge them. She centers the voices of the marginalized in order to make the invisible visible." - Christine Snyder
"Women's Art Doesn't End at The Outer Labia portrays the real intimacy of the human body and the physical space it takes up. The combination is her work. A lesson in symbiosis." -Attia Taylor
On view in London through June 26, 2022.
Artnet listed Yishay Garbasz: Women's Art Doesn't End At The Other Labia as the number one recommended exhbition on their Digital Gallery Hopper mailing highlighting it to galleries and collectors worldwide.
Art is a tiny glowing ember. And because it is fragile, our responsibility is to sustain it, to keep it going. Bill de Kooning summed it up: “If I stretch my arms and wonder where my fingers are – that is all the space I need as a painter.” - George Negroponte
As a tribute to the passing of Chris Finch, two films "Richard Hamilton" and "RB Kitaj", which Scott and Finch worked on together, will be available for viewing on Vimeo for a limited time.

Yishay Garbasz is an interdisciplinary artist based in Berlin. Her work considers culturally specific inheritance of traumatic memory, rendering the unsightly and the invisible tenderly seen.
Annette Hinkle speaks with Virva Hinnemo about her painting practice and her role in the Parrish Art Museums' current exhibition, Affinities for Abstraction: Women Artists on Eastern Long Island, 1950-2020.
The Berlin-based artist’s engagement with displacement, trauma and memory, both personal and historical, has particular resonance in the context of the present pandemic.
The exhibition will include a look at successive generations including Mary Heilmann, Howardena Pindell, and Michelle Stuart, and more recent arrivals Jacqueline Humphries and Amy Sillman, among many others.
“I always prefer to work slowly and deeply rather than quickly,” she said. “We don’t always understand things instantly … sometimes they kind of dawn on us, and I’m really interested in that process.”
City-Wide Open Studios, now in its 23rd year, is a month long festival celebrating the talent of Connecticut's artists.
To get ideas for his art, he observes the world we live in, as well as allowing himself to be free from himself. “Then what can move through a channel, can emerge fresh and clear of my ego, and be, just be,” said Mark.
At times, my art is serious, yet at the same time, whimsical. And upredictable.
Yishay Garbasz: In order to see the world outside me, I have to see the world inside me: it’s about polishing the mirror.
“During a time when the world is on edge, art can do wonders”
He has lately been pushing the boundaries of his pieces further, incorporating found objects— steel scraps, bricks, rubber—in order to bring a sense of tension and balance or create “an interesting compositional relationship.”
And what a relief, because there's so much pleasure to be gained from looking at Scott's art, spartan as it is. He took the ordinary and made it extraordinary.
George Negroponte currently has a painting on view in the Museum of Contemporary Art, Andros as part of their current group exhibition Approaches to Abstraction by Greek Artists of the Diaspora: Works from the B&E Goulandris Foundation Collection.

The drawing has replaced my clock. It’s a beautiful and needed reminder that time can be measured not by seconds, hours, or days but by marks, tone, and depth.
Appointed on the basis of prior achievement and exceptional promise, the successful candidates were chosen from a group of almost 3,000 applicants in the Foundation’s ninety-sixth competition.

Anita Rogers discusses the gallery's 2019 exhibition of paintings and drawings by William Scott.
This month’s Master Class takes a deeper dive into the Anita Rogers Gallery in New York City – a gallery that strives to cultivate the careers of exceptional painters and sculptors, both figurative and abstract, who have earned their place in the contemporary market. In this interview, Susan Melrath and Anita talk about Anita’s perspective, the gallery’s vision and advice for aspiring artists.
There is something loose and special about the Sag Harbor art gallery community, which can treat its art shows as intuitive and impromptu affairs. Often an open forum, it is not unusual for artists and curators to join the spaces in a last-minute collaboration.
All of my editing, all of my scrubbing and re-layering, these are all very distinct physical elements. I want all the work to do the same thing. I want it unfold over time for the viewer and to tell its story slowly and deliberately. I want that story to always be interesting. Perhaps that is a quality people will come to recognize in my work.
Tribeca Art+Culture Night celebrates its third anniversary with the 12th edition tour of neighborhood arts spaces on Thursday, Nov. 14, from 6 to 9 p.m. RSVP required. General admission is free, or join the after party with a special $35 VIP ticket.

Anita Rogers aims to put the artist back in front of the city’s art lovers. William Scott: Paintings and Drawings focuses on works from the 1950s-80s, including some prime examples of his Abstracts and domestic still-lifes.
"Art has such a profound effect on us. I feel most of us are constantly either thinking of our past, worrying about things we did wrong, or feeling stress about the future. However, art forces us to be more present, to feel and experience the world in a different way."
If you want to express yourself really in any fundamental way, I think you have to have the courage to be able to move forward with whatever ideas you think are good or bad, and you have to be willing to flesh those ideas out, and be comfortable working on them. And then the end of that road is putting them out into a public that they don't know who you are. So you're introducing yourself to strangers through your work.
The British Council apparently couldn’t handle Scott’s vision of contemporary (i.e., homosexual) life, and asked him to remove the footage of Hockney wearing a sweatshirt emblazoned with the number 69 and the work’s final section, in which the artist reads three Cavafy poems over shots of his etchings. Anita Rogers could handle it, and offered the original, uncensored version.
Seven months ago Claude Lawrence completed a significant work titled “Eastside Ruminations”: it’s made gutsy by jolted figures, anthropomorphic prompts, and heavy black contouring that gives the work the look of a stained glass window. It glows. The organization of this painting is not unlike other works by Lawrence from this period as it highlights dispersed forms brought together by a deliberate and straightforward touch.
Art Films by James Scott, Etchings by David Hockney featured at the top of ArtForum's "Must See" list in NYC.
The American offers the workshop "Life and Meaning" for students of all faculties. Every year, the University invites internationally renowned and innovative artists to Tübingen with the "Invited Artist" concept to provide students with insight into the contemporary art of different cultures.

Now take a look at the very same room after the art has been replaced with minimalist drawings by Gloria Ortiz-Hernández. They radically change the ambiance...
In 2019, Bill Antonucci created a short film on Morgan O'Hara's Handwriting the Constitution Project.
“The politics of the art world is social,” Algus said. “Often, the social politics and personal politics don’t mesh well because the social hierarchies of the art world overshadow then.” Handwriting the Constitution represents another attempt to “chip away at that.”
“At the core of the Pollock-Krasner Foundation’s mission is fostering the work and development of artists, and our 2018-19 grant and award recipients highlight the impact we can have due to Lee Krasner’s legacy,” said Ronald D. Spencer, Chairman and CEO of the Pollock-Krasner Foundation.

Gordon Moore's solo exhibition listed on the Galerie Editors' top picks this week.
She [Jan Cunningham] makes subtle, inventively colored geometric abstractions that play different kinds of drawing against the memory of a grid...
The gallery introduces John Ashworth to the gallery for the first time; Ashworth’s detailed acrylic paintings on paper, canvas and panel are rich in texture, detail and illuminated color. Moore’s works on photo emulsion paper explore depth, perspective, balance and asymmetry. Webber’s hydrocal and plaster sculptures recall architectural forms but are firmly sculpture; the works are defined by their elegant lines and careful balance.
We are only interested in art we feel has the right essence—that which will withstand the test of time. We call ourselves “incubators.”
A night of Traditional Rebetiko and Smyrnaiko hosted by Anita Rogers Gallery.
Though my paintings are, for the most part, “abstract,” I think of them more as an arena of spatial possibilities where the confluence of ideas is transformed into a visual language of symbols. Mark-making, layers, pigment, and a willing suspension of disbelief concerning the impossibilities of space lends itself to a world of visual fictions.
Anita Rogers judges the The National Association of Women Artists' 129th Annual Members’ Exhibition, along with Lisa Small of the Brooklyn Museum and artist Margaret McCann.
"The coherence of the show comes from a shared command these artists display of both materials and process. One feels these works were chosen as much to create a discussion about the current state of abstraction as to provide a gateway into further exploration of each artist’s oeuvre."
Works spanning over a decade will be on view at the Salina Art Center in Kansas. September 19 - December 16, 2018.
On June 21, Anita Rogers Gallery will participate for the first time. Work by Mark Webber and Jack Martin Rogers will be on view; the gallery will stay open until 9pm.
Offered four times a year, TAC Night features art performance, dance, artist tours, gallery talks, open studios, workshops and more taking place across the Downtown New York neighborhood.
"Texture, composition, simplicity, and an organic element are all part of my exploration. What unfolds off the wall and/or into space must be aesthetically pleasing and embrace silence after all the work has been done. My materials all come from materials being used in modern homes." – Mark Webber
I struggle in the early stages because there are no real problems that I can solve, so I have to labor to create these problems. Day two is typically when a painting will begin to take on different and unique characteristics. After day two is where I excel and my process becomes very kaleidoscopic with one move opening up 10 moves and so on.
To better understand this concept of “the divine joke,” I turned to Becoming Modern: The Life of Mina Loy, in which Carolyn Burke, Loy’s biographer, explains that Loy’s notion was that art could be a “‘divine joke’ which the public did not get because it had been trained to see things in just one way” whereas “the artist saw each object with fresh eyes.”
In tandem with the exhibition The Divine Joke, curated by Barry Schwabsky, and in celebration of the recent publication by Ugly Duckling Presse of a new facsimile edition of The Blind Man, the renowned little magazine published by the circle around Marcel Duchamp in 1917, Anita Rogers Gallery and Ugly Duckling Presse present an evening of readings and discussion inspired by The Blind Man.
Anita Rogers Gallery and Ugly Duckling Presse are teaming up to celebrate the current exhibition “The Divine Joke,” curated by Barry Schwabsky and on view through June 2, as well as the publication of a new edition of The Blind Man, Marcel Duchamp‘s 1917 Dada magazine.
Barry Schwabsky's group show at Anita Rogers Gallery highlighted as one of the top NYC exhibitions in April, alongside Paul Kasmin Gallery and Jack Hanley Gallery.
For the third volume of this ongoing series entitled New York Studio Conversations (Part II) art historian Stephanie Buhmann conducted interviews with twenty artists, whose ages range from early 41 to 96.
The compositions are direct, unmannered and actively self-sufficient. They point to a time when such unfettered abstraction was the dominant idiom in the New York area; we pretend that is so still, although it is clear by now that the style is currently a matter of individual performance, practiced by talented persons such as Hinnemo.
A quick pass might offer hints of Robert Motherwell, Franz Kline, even Mark Tobey, but it wouldn’t reveal the depth of the artist’s unique approach.
ArtNet highlights our Conversation on Women & the Art World as the #1 thing to do in the NYC art world this week.

The selection of works on display features new paintings from the artist’s 'Torso/Roots' series. The new paintings by Waltemath were created with a range of unique materials including oil, graphite and various metallic and fluorescent pigments on aluminum panels, many of which took years for the artist to complete.
In “Fecund Algorithms,” a solo exhibition of new paintings and diminutive sewn-canvas works, Joan Waltemath diverts gently from the quiet perfection of her previous work to embrace small accidents and contingencies.

Steven Alexander Journal covers current painting shows in New York, including Tristan Barlow and Hans Neleman at Anita Rogers Gallery.
Once a refuge for artists who rented cheap industrial lofts, SoHo is now one of the most stylish and exclusive neighborhoods in New York. While many of the artists have long since relocated, much of the art remains.
Anita Rogers Gallery is thrilled to introduce the work of Tristan Barlow and Hans Neleman in an upcoming two-person exhibition.
Despite the show’s title, an alluring softness pervades George Negroponte’s new work in his exhibition, “Gravel Road,” at Anita Rogers Gallery in Soho through January 7.
George Negroponte comes to making art with a pure love of painting. His aim has never been to turn over the apple cart, or in Al Held’s words, reinvent the wheel. As such, he has been compelled to paint his way through various modes and approaches, learning and searching for authenticity and resonance.
George Negroponte's Blueberries (Tape, enamel, acrylic and spray paint on cardboard, 15.5" x 5.75") featured in IN NEW YORK Magazine.
George is obviously a venerable artist. My early impressions of his latest (re)+work are very positive. Keeping all of this in mind, I’m certain my reflections are influenced by the number of pieces shown, the symmetry of how the pieces are hung, and the architectural qualities and layout of the gallery, and of course the pieces themselves having a constructed efficacious quality; all giving a sense of a utilitarian longing.
Many notable artists — among them Dan Flavin, Sol LeWitt, and Brice Marden — worked at museums early in their careers, usually as security guards, but few kept one foot in the studio and one in a museum for three decades. George Negroponte managed to do just that.
David Cohen Highlights George Negroponte: Gravel Road
George Negroponte's Gravel Road Listed in East Hampton Star's "The Art Scene"
On the eve of a solo exhibition of recent paintings at Anita Rogers Gallery in New York, Pat Rogers of Hamptons Art Hub reconnected with Negroponte to continue a discussion on his art and his process that began a year ago.
Virva Hinnemo and George Negroponte will be featured in a group show, Black & White: Modern and Contemporary Positions, at Jason McCoy Gallery in New York City. The show will be on view September 14 - October 22, 2016 at 41 East 57th Street, New York 10022, 11th Floor.
At times, abstract painting can seem like a received package, with little space left to think outside of the box. In Virva Hinnemo, to overplay the postal metaphor, we have an artist “pushing the envelope”—in her case, literally so. A form vocabulary and a gestural lexicon familiar from mid-century American masters Franz Kline, Robert Motherwell and Philip Guston meet the swift completion of their appointed rounds on flattened cartons as their repurposed, eccentric support.
Ms. Hinnemo adopted cardboard as her primary material last summer. “I was ready to scale up, and I have a lot of cardboard boxes from when we moved here. It’s a surface I love to work on. Because of the imperfections, whether it’s print or folds or weird edges and creases, it almost has a kind of grit. And it provides organizing principles, such the grid it makes when it’s unfolded or the holes meant for carrying it.”
