From Chelsea to Art Toronto, Five Galleries to Follow
J. Cacciola Gallery represents established and emerging contemporary realist
painters and sculptors. At Art
Toronto this weekend, ’s gorgeous floral, photographic prints are for
sale, along with ’s abstracted, geometric landscapes, and other
works from the Chelsea gallery’s growing roster of artists.
Gallery Espace exhibits Modernist and contemporary artists
from India and Sri Lanka. Currently, in its New Delhi space, artist ’s graphic panels of powerful goddesses are the
subject of “A Zebra Among Horses.”
Rick Wester Fine Art is a
contemporary photography gallery located in the heart of the Chelsea art
district and committed to a stable of mid-career and emerging artists. In its
first multidisciplinary exhibition, “THEY ARE US: Animal
Identity and the Anthropomorphic Urge,” the gallery brings together the work of six disparate
artists, connected in their exploration of the complicated relationship between
humans and other species.
p|m gallery describes itself as “50% intense abstract
painting, 50% installation, video, and sculpture,” and the fantastic range of
its Canadian and international artists is readily apparent at Art Toronto. is a stand-out, contributing playful work
reminiscent of contemporary advertising, yet defiant of its self-seriousness
and the illusory perfection of its images.
Yossi Milo Gallery is a
contemporary art gallery focused on the representation of artists specializing
in photo-based art, video, and works on paper. Its newly-opened
exhibition of ’s
surreal photographs is worth a look (and a second look). Like ARE US,
works in Johan’s ongoing series “Until the Kingdom Comes” offer insights about
humanity by focusing on animals. The artist’s manipulated, composite photographs
find nature at the mercy of subjective perception—or is it the other way
around?
