DAMION SILVER and SCOTTY ALBRECHT

Presented by Colab Projects


Colab is pleased to present "Wood and Pulp," a two person exhibition by Damion Silver and Scotty Albrecht.  "Wood and Pulp" features new bodies of artwork, including collage, assemblages, and works on paper.  The artists' works share an intricate use of found objects and carefully wrought wood and paper. Silver and Albrecht both have backgrounds rooted in design as well as influences and techniques derived from traditions of crafting by hand. While there are strong commonalities in the artists' processes, "Wood and Pulp" demonstrates distinct approaches in their use of material and the resulting forms.

NYC 1993: Experimental Jet Set, Trash and No Star

Presented by New Museum of Contemporary Art


'NYC 1993: Experimental Jet Set, Trash and No Star' looks at art made and exhibited in New York over the course of one year. Centering on 1993, the exhibition is conceived as a time capsule, an experiment in collective memory that attempts to capture a specific moment at the intersection of art, pop culture, and politics. This exhibition brings together a number of iconic and lesser-known artworks that serve as both artifacts from a pivotal moment in the New York art world and as key markers in the cultural history of the city. The exhibition features over 75 artists and will span all five gallery floors of the New Museum. NOTE: While the exhibit does not open in its entirety until Feb. 13, 'Nari Ward's 'Amazing Grace,' which is part of 'NYC 1993,' opened on Jan. 16 and is on view in the New Museum's adjacent space, Studio 231 at 231 Bowery through April 21.

On Time / Grand Central at 100

Presented by Grand Central Terminal - New York Transit Museum Gallery Annex and Store


Grand Central Terminal, one of the nation's great architectural treasures, has been the site of the beginning and ending of countless journeys for millions of travelers over the past century. Instantly recognizable the world over as a great temple of transportation, the heart of the landmark centers upon the main concourse with its grand vaulted celestial canopy and famous four-sided clock, a beloved meeting place for generations.

The artists in this exhibit capture and reimagine these moments, and connect them with the present. This is an exhibition about Time - and about the people who move and live through it, who are connected to the past and future through their experience in this iconic, romantic place. Artworks by Jim Campbell, Penelope Umbrico, Lothar Osterburg, Patrick Jacobs, Paloma Munoz and Walter Martin, Paul Himmel, Olive Ayhens, London Squared Productions, Pop Chart Lab and many more will be on view.
