Vanessa Chakour: Innerscapes by Jacob Resneck
Artist, athlete, and activist Vanessa Chakour's abstract artwork is a vivid display of her stream of consciousness on canvas. With bold colors and shapes, her curious pieces are harmonious but come about through the chaotic interaction of an evolving sense of self and artistic expression. Her first one-woman exhibition entitled "Innerscapes" opens tonight at the Ambrosia Gallery in New Rochelle, NY.

Walton Ford
For years I've been completely in love with Walton Ford's meticulously detailed watercolors of animals, so you might imagine that I was practically giddy to see his new work now on view at Paul Kasmin Gallery. On first glance Ford's paintings might be mistaken for 19th century nature illustrations, but beyond the flawlessly rendered historical aspect of the paintings, the images often integrate both...

Jason Young: New Works
Jason Young, the New York-based artist who makes "high-tech minimal 'trompe-l’oeuil'" paintings, has a show opening this Thursday, 15 March 2007, at NYC's Cristinerose gallery. The exhibition features recent works that layer resin and other materials over honeycomb alloy, a material used in the construction of airplanes, for an effect that adds surprising dimension. (To see his intensive process, watch this recent CH video.)...

Jeff Sonhouse: Pawnography
Jeff Sonhouse's latest exhibition, "Pawnography," at the Tilton Gallery in New York explores the role of the black male in today's shifting socio-political climate. His vivid portraits, rendered as mixed media paintings or drawings, depict a variety of political and anonymous figures, their faces sometimes masked or completely obscured. In the case of the latter (examples below), the effect is reminiscent of Francis Bacon's...

Terence Koh: Flowers for Baudelaire
by Ariston Anderson Last night France's first brother Olivier Sarkozy hosted an unusual opening in his swank Upper East Side abode, which also happens to be Richard Avedon's former studio. Budding art dealer Vito Schnabel (son of painter and filmmaker Julian Schnabel) curated the show featuring Terence Koh, who formerly worked under the alias asianpunkboy. Known as much for outlandish high-fashion statements as for...

Casey Ruble: Except in Struggle
Casey Ruble's first solo show in New York depicts one of the prettiest battle scenes I've ever seen. Each of her colorful and delicate paintings depicts a superficial struggle between warriors, but just below the surface, a deeper struggle between colors, Eastern and Western influences, as well as between abstraction and pictorialism, plays out. Her visually dense images manage to find harmony between conflicting...
