July 16 – September 6
Turnstile I
Curated by Elizabeth Josephson
The first of three exhibitions from The Riker’s Island Project, Turnstile I presents 44 paintings by adolescent inmates. Several of the artists in the exhibit are young men with unusual visual aptitude, who aspire to become professional artists; others use art-making as a means to explore the self. The paintings will be on view throughout the summer by appointment, and during regular gallery hours from August 6 through August 22. Reception: Thursday, August 6, from 5:30 - 7:30 p.m.
