The Robin Rice Gallery is pleased to present selected works by Giacomo Piussi for a solo exhibition. On exhibit Wednesday March 29, 2023. The opening reception will be held on Wednesday March 29, 2023 from 6pm to 8pm. The show will run through to May 28, 2023.
The Robin Rice Gallery is pleased to present carefully curated works by Rice’s gallery artists, including photography, painting, lighting, and sculpture, that work together seamlessly in her signature Salon style installations. This exhibition, much like her own life, is about more than just looking at art, as she has a knack for organically bringing people together, adding a real social element to their experience.
After 31 years of exhibiting Fine Art Photography, Robin Rice shares new discoveries. Her latest exhibition showcases work from new artists she met in the Hudson Valley and Eastern Long Island during the pandemic. Selected works including sculptures, paintings, and weavings will be on exhibit with Rice’s stable of Fine Art Photographers. She pairs the different art forms seamlessly in her collection for the Salon style experience she is well known for.
In the hazy, warm New York summer, little is more refreshing than reclining on the beach in the mist of the icy ocean waves or enjoying a family trip to the country house. Each summer, Rice curates her favorite show, the Summertime Salon, which reminds us of this exact seasonal sentiment. The two, long walls of the gallery become mosaicked, top to bottom, side to side, in photographs that evoke all the preeminent feelings and memories of summer. Each year, the Summertime Salon matures and Rice's annual masterpiece comes into fruition. This year is no exception. The show is a haven of what the Robin Rice Gallery stands for, a community of art and experience.
In his new exhibition, featuring a selection of breathtaking aerial photographs of Icelandic landscapes shot from an ultralight aircraft, Seckler captures a beautifully abstracted natural perspective that is as staggeringly momentous as it is delicate. Picturing various natural and animal forms, from birds to seals, we get a true sense of his astonishing journey. With strong figures and forms, we also begin to feel the sheer power of Iceland's frigid tundra, though, because of Seckler's careful composition, we also understand the subtlety and magic of his experience.
In his latest show, Benjamin Heller invites us to enter a poetic space of echo and convergence. As a photographer, sculptor, and performer, movement is key in this body of work, that is punctuated by self portraits selected from the series "The Long Walk: Analog Narratives". This series features pieces collected over an extended period of time spent traveling. It is a window to the interior landscapes he seeks to find reflected in the world, to contain a sense of this intimate vastness. All of the images can be viewed as variations on a self-portrait.
Every year, the gallery owner curates the show to best exemplify the 56 exhibited artists' strengths and aesthetics, remaining cohesively linked by Robin's extensive knowledge of her artists and of photography. "This is my favorite exhibit, even though it takes months to curate and a week to install," says Robin. "It is my curatorial showcase." From floor to ceiling, the walls of the gallery rooms are a mosaic of nearly a hundred photographs, their various sizes, color schemes and subject matter expertly laid out to fit together like the pieces of an eclectic puzzle.
In the debut of the series “Isild Le Besco: the Early Years”, fans of French film will be especially captivated by Kocharian’s images which amplify the radiance and mercurial energy of the gifted French actress Isild Le Besco.
