Independent curator specializing in emerging artists, curating exhibitions that contextualize contemporary art within an art historical narrative, and utilizing alternative spaces, such as a bookstore, brownstone, and old brewery.

“Painting Everyday IV”: Paul Gagner & Todd Beinvenu

“Painting Everyday III”: Gretchen Scherer

Fascinated with the great architecture and interiors of previous centuries, Gretchen Scherer draws inspiration from old history of architecture books that she collects and keeps in her studio. From the opulent Victorian drawing rooms to the classical great halls of Italian palazzos, she collages individual components of these spaces into elaborate, dream-like environments. The separate segments of the interiors crowd together, tumbling over and into each other as they offer up their separate worlds, apathetic to perspective.

“Painting Everyday I”: Polly Shindler and Bella Foster
