DC Moore Gallery

A large exhibition of small paintings, Come A Little Closer, features the work of 70 plus artists.

On November 17, continuing through December 22, DC Moore Gallery will present What Color Courage?, an exhibition of new and historic work by Mary Frank, featuring mixed media paintings, painted stones, sculptures, along with several groups of works on paper from 1990-2022.

DC Moore Gallery is pleased to present Threshold, an exhibition of paintings by Eric Aho, on view from October 13 – November 12, 2022. In this new series of paintings, Eric Aho explores the various “threshold” spaces between water, earth, sky, and our own physical presence in the landscape. Developed over the past two years and drawn from the artist’s explorations of forests and wetlands, Aho reconstructs and reinvents his observations, composing a visual language of natural forms, feelings, and remembrances. An illustrated catalog with the essay by Andrew L. Shea, “Eric Aho: At the Edge of a Lake,” accompanies the exhibition.

DC Moore Gallery is pleased to present Reworlding, a solo exhibition of new paintings by Theresa Daddezio, on view from September 8 to October 8, 2022. Theresa Daddezio imagines hybridizations of human and botanic lifeforms, creating harmonies through the language of abstraction. The artist takes inspiration from the concept of plant mimicry–– in which a plant evolves to resemble another plant, often to attract pollinators or deter predators. In the paintings, organic forms take on synthetic colors and textures, complicating the boundaries between the natural and artificial. Daddezio’s paintings offer an optimistic vision of an interconnected future in spite of ecological destruction and stress, finding potential in our shared ability to adapt. This exhibition is accompanied by the catalogue featuring an interview, Becoming & Unbecoming, with the artist and Elizaveta Shneyderman.

DC Moore Gallery is pleased to present Form, Figure, Abstraction, featuring twenty-six artists whose work on paper spans styles and generations. The exhibition will be on view in the gallery’s project space from September 8 - October 8, 2022.

DC Moore Gallery is pleased to present Askew, a group exhibition featuring works by Lisha Bai, Tom Burckhardt, James Esber, Chie Fueki, Mary Frank, Sharon Horvath, Mark Innerst, Yvonne Jacquette, Suzanne Joelson, Duane Michals, Carrie Moyer, Katia Santibañez, Karen Schifano, Leah Tacha, Barbara Takenaga, and Alexi Worth. Over the past years, there has been a globally-shared unsettling of what we have understood as “normal” everyday life. As ideologies and supply chains become more fractured, and too many in power lead with misinformation, truth and fact seem to have taken on a strange flexibility, destabilizing our habits and assumptions in ways that can feel minor one day, overwhelming the next. The paintings, photographs, and sculptures in the exhibition reflect the many ways in which we have felt this unsettling, and been forced to look inside ourselves, attempting to reset. They suggest the discomfort—and precarious vitality— that can come from the state of being thrown off, of feeling askew. The connections between these works are strengthened by what is absent: groups gathered, realistic portraiture, naturalistic landscapes. Instead, the artists here create abstract or coded meditations on our inner selves, our bodies, the cosmos, and the immediate environment. Like pieces of a puzzle, each fills in some of the subjective contours of our still-assembling sense of this uncomfortable time.

DC Moore Gallery is pleased to present Claire Sherman's exhibition of new paintings, Intuor, on view May 5 - June 4, 2022.

DC Moore Gallery is pleased to present Carrie Moyer: Morphologies, featuring all new works on paper surrounding a single new painting, on view from April 1 - 30, 2022. An opening reception with the artist will be Friday, April 1 from 6- 8pm.

In keeping with the creativity that permeates his career, Michals’ ideas, ambitions, and interests remain limitless. Filling the gallery and bursting with color and energy, Duane Michals: Kaleidoscope presents new sculptures, paintings on paper, film, and photographs.

DC Moore Gallery is pleased to present Carrie Moyer: Analog Time on view from April 1 – May 1, 2021. Moyer’s use of abstraction continues to be a medium for sensations and this new body of work is a recollection of the last year spent largely in the twenty-five-block radius of her Brooklyn studio. Analog Time references a new appreciation for the intensity of daily life and a new sense of time that has fused mind and body, memory and imagination, micro and macro.
