The Lodge Gallery is proud to present The Outer Boroughs; Brooklyn, Queens & The Bronx, a group exhibition exploring the transformative cultural history of New York through contemporary urban landscape painting.
The works in this exhibition are formidable testaments to the only unchanging constant in New York, which is change itself. Here, through the beauty of each urban landscape, we witness the ongoing dynamic between nostalgia and growth. Many of the sites represented no longer exist or have been transformed by development or decline, others are represented as they can be seen today. All together we get a visceral sense of the creative energy that persists through time here in The Outer Boroughs.
Curated by Jason Patrick Voegele, featured artists includes: Derek Buckner, Todd Gordon, Valeri Larko, Tun Myaing, Laura Shechter, Pamela Talese, and John Wellington.
