Reaching Out- Art made in absence of direct contact

  • The Yards Collective 50-52 Public Market Way Rochester, NY 14609 United States (map)

James Derek Sapienza and Karrah Henahan-Teague will both be showing paintings made throughout the pandemic/isolation up to present.

Sapienza’s two distinct series play color field against landscape, both immense with detail, both calming, and potentially haunting. Teague’s energetic, sometimes gritty work depicts repeating motifs and features a mix of brightly-toned media on a large scale.

Patrick Sullivan Doyle will be installing his piece “The Artist Has Never Been Present” in which he addresses the artist's existence in a time when our every move is commodified. He writes:

“New creations can only exist to serve some first-order purpose. As such, it’s the contemporary creator’s sole job to further some career, to bolster some cause, or to launder some would-be autocrat’s crypto-loot. In short, art must now come with a mission statement and a price tag.”
