Proximity Exhibition

About

Featuring work by: Erin Butler, Linda Butti, Mary Campbell, Lisa Dahl, Griselda Healy, Craig Manister, Ann Marie McDonnell, Mike Shane, Gayle Tanaka, Martha Trivizas. Celebrating Snug Harbor’s longstanding studio program, where artists in residence create new work within its historic buildings, PROXIMITY explores the studio as a generative space: artists working near one another across space, time, and relationship. Spanning painting, photography, and mixed media, PROXIMITY is not defined by a shared aesthetic, but by a condition of closeness. Here, proximity becomes more than a matter of place—it becomes a context through which individual practices develop, intersect, and inform one another. When: October 2 - December 13Fridays & Saturdays, 12:00 PM-7:00 PM | Sundays, 11:00 AM- 5:00 PMWhere: Newhouse Center for Contemporary Art, Main Hall Gallery, Building C (View Site Map and Directions)Admission:$5.00 – General Admission$4.00 – Students/SeniorsPlease note: On October 16, we will host an opening reception for PROXIMITY from 6-8 PM. Visiting during those hours will be free. Please RSVP to the reception here: https://snug-harbor.org/event/proximity-opening-reception/ PROXIMITY is made possible through generous support from the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Kathy Hochul and the New York State Legislature, the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council, and the Samuel I. Newhouse Foundation.
