The New York Studio School offers a full program of exhibitions in its historic gallery space. Like the lecture program, the gallery program is open to the public and is integral to art life in the city. Exhibitions are often reviewed in the press and attract a committed following. Presentations range from historic surveys, overviews of specific mediums, group exhibitions and solo retrospectives. The gallery often showcases outstanding individuals who have not received due attention in New York City, and is also well known for exploring neglected aspects of well-known artists, for instance works on paper.
Our current exhibition is Norman Turner: A Survey. Norman Turner was a founder student of the New York Studio School in the mid-1960s and his work continues to develop modernist ideas of spatial complexity first encountered in his studies with the late Mercedes Matter. Turner’s densely chromatic and energetically linear pictorial language convey a dynamic experience of nature. The show includes examples of the artist’s irregularly shaped canvases that further typify a high-minded pictorial exuberance.
Previously in the 2007-08 season we presented From Governor's Island: The 2007 Alumni Exhibition, which charted the work produced this summer by former students in a special residency in New York Harbor; Françoise Gilot: Compositions, 1980 - 2005, of major and monumental new abstract paintings by this veteran of the School of Paris; Ariane Lopez-Huici: Photography, whose work explores identity and sexuality through individual and group portraits of extraordinary singularity and grace; and Peter de Francia Modern Myths: Drawings from Four Decades, a survey of works on paper by the veteran British realist that unflinchingly explore, through allegory and narrative, perennial struggles between liberty and repression.
