Alberto di Fabio At Galleria Nazionale d’Arte Moderna e Contemporanea
Since the 1980s, Di Fabio has addressed the relationship between art, science, and the cosmos through a body of work that investigates the natural world and physical phenomena that define it. Moving steadily toward abstraction, and animating the optical, kinetic-at times spiritual-elements that characterize his work, Di Fabio continues to captivate international critics, museums, and [...]
Sam Reveles At James Kelly Contemporary

Pard Morrison At James Kelly Contemporary
Morrison continues his interest in geometric abstraction with this new body of work.

“Random Acts of Time” at OCCCA
This exhibition investigates our relationship to the concept of time, the choices we make and the random, uncontrollable events that shape our lives. From the moment we begin our journey into the cacophony of the world – a series of decisions, choices and twists of fate guide us – often lurching or blissful and occasionally [...]
