There is always something special about seeing site-specific artwork in intimate settings, outside of the white-cube gallery space. There is something really special about the amazing sculpture and installation in the rooms and halls of the abandoned old homes on Governors Island off the bottom tip of Manhattan. The show “The Sixth Borough” is produced […]

What was shaping up to be a gaping hole in the art scene of Wynwood with the departure of the Kevin Bruk Gallery has turned out to be the opposite. During last Second Saturday’s art walk, many a night stroller was surprised to find the gallery doors open — but filled with works from neighboring […]
