Christina Forrer
Animated by an interest in fables and folklore, Christina Forrer’s vibrant weavings explore the depths of human emotion. While many of her works showcase dramatic moments of explosive conflict, the grouping presented here focuses on more private anxieties and internal tensions. These weavings and watercolors showcase Forrer’s signature representational style, featuring fantastical characters with cartoonish features rendered with a keen attention to boldness of color and richness of pattern.

Sanya Kantarovsky
Kantarovsky is known for his work across a variety of mediums, as well as his texts and curatorial projects. The artist's most well known body of work, his figurative paintings, contains drastic shifts in scale, paint application and stylization. Presented here is a new painting as well as a selection of monotypes, the imagery sourced from photographs taken in Russia by Kantarovsky's grandmother.

Allison Katz
Allison Katz’s work engages with the complex and at times contradictory nature of contemporary artistic production, embracing the ambiguity of communication with a playful and inquiring touch that expands the conventional notion of an artist’s “signature style.” Katz’s work operates in a poetic space between mirror and mask, between revealing and concealing what is presented, calling attention to the multiple layers of consciousness that reside in a painting’s surface and subject.
-
Salman Toor
Salman Toor’s sumptuous and insightful figurative paintings and works on paper depict intimate, quotidian moments in the lives of fictional young, brown, queer men ensconced in contemporary cosmopolitan culture. Rendered in charcoal, gouache, ink, and ballpoint, these drawings comprise a moving and intimate body of work that explores the anxieties and the comedy of identity. Like Toor’s paintings, these new works on paper oscillate between heartening and harrowing, seductive and poignant, inviting and eerie.
Please visit our online exhibition, Salman Toor: New Works on Paper, to see the full body of work.

Rachel Whiteread
Rachel Whiteread’s practice is defined by an ongoing investigation of domestic architecture and the traces of humanity impressed upon such sites. She casts the spaces inside and around objects and uses materials such as resin, rubber, concrete, and plaster to preserve each surface detail, creating sculptures that are faithful to their source molds, but also uncannily foreign in their inverse of the original object. In these two resin works windows become ephemeral ghosts of their former selves, animated by changes in light and the viewer’s position.
