OPENING TODAY: "Jordan Casteel: Within Reach" presents nearly forty works spanning the artist's career.
In her large-scale oil paintings, Casteel has developed a distinctive figurative language permeated by the presence of her subjects, who are typically captured in larger-than-life depictions that teem with domestic details and psychological insights.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Saturday, February 29, hear from the artist as she discusses her work with Massimiliano Gioni, Edlis Neeson Artistic Director of the New Museum: http://bit.ly/CasteelTalk

my dad interviewed John Johnson many years ago and I have the tape-fantastic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You really want me to write a post? From my heart of 7 hearts well here it comes-you asked. Can we PLEASE for our collective spirits' ascension sake begin to project visions of our future, how we see our lives unfolding, in health, wealth and joyfulness in the oneness of the ALL? Excuse me for relying on words to share my thoughts with you. Not the most effective form of communication. IMAGES are the language of the SPIRIT and who best represents that principle or natural LAW but ARTISTS. Peace!
Hi, do you have anything special happening for Harlem Week?
