was (posthumously) included in Weinstein Gallery booth at Basel Miami which Artsy says was noteworthy (the presentation traces Lamba’s journey through the dreamlike depictions of Paris during the Surrealist movement in the 1940s and ’50s to vibrant abstract landscapes that defined her later career, such asParis Panorama- below- which align her legacy with Abstract Expressionist figures like Helen Frankenthaler and Joan Mitchell).

Using a combination of traditional and digital tools at hand, and borrowing from postmodern abstract idioms, Robert explores color, flatness and space in paintings and drawings that mirror the artist’s search for insight into the examined life. He shows with Cole Pratt Gallery.

like Chie gets a nod from Two Coats for constructDEconstruct at AIR in their newest NY gallery guide. Born of the interplay between solitary workings in her studio, the push-pull of her personal life, and the ongoing turmoil of the outside world, Dubinsky’s new work combines maps and silhouetted figures with abstract shapes created by flattened boxes using painting, printmaking, alternative photography, and sculpture on paper and metal.

gets a nod from Hyperallergic s most recent 10 art shows to see in LA (December 2024 edition). The P’Urhépecha artist’s woven works navigate between craft and fine art, tradition and fashion. Working predominantly with toquillo, or plastic lanyard material, Janacua weaves patterns that recall Minimalism and geometric abstraction, as well as Indigenous designs and art forms.

Space is on my mind because the artist run organization Tiger Strikes Asteroid (I’m a member of the Greenville group) is christening a brand new amazing gallery space in Greenville, SC tonight with the opening of Creature After Me, curated by fellow TSA member and Rattlesnake Press editor Leah Smolin. Also, there is a new space- Satelite– opening tonight (12/6) in Raleigh. I and many, many other Triangle locals have small works in their inaugural exhibit, Begin Transmission. I hope you’ll come out if you’re in either city!
One of the reasons I’m involved with TSA is to create space. Space is literally the most precious commodity for urban artists. Personally- I think to have space, as an artist, you have to make space. It’s one of the reasons I use this blog (and my IG feed once a month) to promote other artists. I just passed 1,700 posts about other artists this week. Wow. ICYW- I feel like this strategy is working since I’m looking forward to a number of opportunities that have come my way.
Space is going to be important over the next four years in the US. Whether that’s mutual aid networks, support groups or just personal efforts at self care, those of us who find ourselves watching what will no doubt be a major shift in the relationship of the federal government to the citizens of our country with sadness and frustration will, I hope, discover and create meaningful community. I hope you can find some yourself- I’ve never asked for feedback or thoughts before and if the spirit moves drop a comment below to share with all or send me a note whether to uplift or hold me accountable, I’m here for it (Sterling at sterlingbowen dot com). Also, speaking of space- I’ll leave you with below courtesy of Nikita Gill.
