Barbara Takenaga begins her paintings starting with fluid pours onto the canvas, then she creates undulating shapes with brushstrokes resembling dots, splashes, and sparks coming together and receding in outwardly infinite space. Takenaga’s current exhibition, ‘Shibaraku,’ her sixth solo exhibition at DC Moore, is on view thru Dec 23rd. Artwork: Barbara Takenaga, Cat Feet 2020, acrylic on linen, 18 x 24 inches

Alexi Worth’s paintings are executed in a rare photographic technique developed in the nineteenth century by Ernestine Lefevre Tournachon. The psycho photogram involves exposing imaginary objects to direct sunlight. The results, with their shallow depth and heightened 3D contours, resemble an elaborated form of freehand line drawing. Worth’s current exhibition ‘Changing Table’ is on view thru December 23rd. Artwork: Alexi Worth, Anything Anything 2020, acrylic on mesh, 28 x 41 inches

We hope you can make it out to see this exhibition of all new paintings by the artist.
