For Immediate Release
PHOENIX! New Artists, New Works, New Cavin-Morris Gallery
(September 18 – October 23, 2021)
Cavin-Morris Gallery has been through some changes! For a year and a half, we have been almost working like an underground cell. This makes the title of this seasonal opening exhibition, PHOENIX! even more relevant. It is high time to step out in the new world cautiously and make some noise! While we will continue with smaller on-line spotlight presentations, we will make our gallery walls come alive with important works by indigenous and Art Brut artists from around the world. First, we are proud to present PHOENIX! New Artists, New Works, New Cavin-Morris Gallery.
Featured will be new artists in Art Brut, Indigenous art, and Ceramics as well as new works by our gallery artists. We are introducing our new projects with First Nation Australian artists, and work by tribal artists of India. This year we hope to expand our presentations of Iranian Art Brut. In October we will be presenting our first of many exhibitions of art from Australia.
New artists to the gallery are Lado Bai, Ambika Bhagel, Shantaram Tumbada, and Ram Singh Urveti from India, Yalcin Cihangir originally from Turkey, Tommy May from Australia, Simone Pellegrini from Italy and Tony Moore from the U.S.
Our new featured ceramic artists are Rob Barnard, Meg Beaudoin, Auguste Elder, Ceren Muftuoglu, and Petros Tsakmaklis.
We will exhibit ceramics by Melanie Ferguson, Robert Fornell, Peggy Germaine, Osamu Inayoshi, Mami Kato, Monique Rutherford, Keiichi Shimizu, and Mike Weber.
Newly presented works by gallery artists will be by Angkasapura, Guillaume Couffignal, Caroline Demangel, Éric Derochette, Joseph Lambert, M’onma, Izabella Ortiz, Sandra Sheehy, Gregory Van Maanen, and Anna Zemánková,.
We present this exhibition as a sampler of great things to come in the next year from a revitalized new location of Cavin-Morris Gallery. We hope to see you at our future exhibitions and programs. Our gallery neighbors on our floor will open the same day: gugging / art brut at Ricco-Maresca, and M.C. Escher: Prints, Drawings, Watercolors, and Textiles at Bruce Silverstein.
