SUMMARY:Miguel A. Aragón & Eddy A. López: Echoes of Absence
DESCRIPTION:Reception: Friday\, June 12\, from 6 to 8 p.m. \nEchoes of Absence presents the works of Miguel A. Aragón and Eddy A. López\, artists who explore collective memory and trauma through print media. Aragón\, born in Ciudad Juarez\, uses erasure as language to examine the US-Mexico border with a lens of violence\, memory\, and perception alongside processes that are reductive. López\, a survivor of the Nicaraguan civil war\, uses censorship and obfuscation to interrogate the use of war imagery in the media\, exploring the tension between lived experience and representation\, remembering and forgetting. Together\, Aragón and López critique visual representations of conflict and war -– and the power systems that perpetuate this violence — by centering the victims within loud echoes of absence. \nAbout the Artists \nMiguel A. Aragón (*Juárez\, México) lives and works in New York\, USA and Berlin\, Germany; he is an Associate Professor at the College of Staten Island. He has exhibited internationally at venues in the United States\, Germany\, and Canada to name a few.

His work is in collections including the Museum of Fine Arts\, Boston; National Museum of Mexican Art\, Chicago; his work has been published in A Survey of Contemporary Printmaking (2012)\, ¡Printing the Revolution!: The Rise and Impact of Chicano Graphics\, 1965 to Now (2020) and more. \nEddy A. López\, born in Matagalpa\, Nicaragua in the midst of the Sandinista revolution\, is a printmedia artist whose work explores collective memory and trauma.

SUMMARY:Tulu Bayar: What Remains\, What Connects: Stories in Assembly
DESCRIPTION:Reception: Friday\, June 12\, from 6 to 8 p.m. \nAmos Eno Gallery is pleased to present What Remains\, What Connects: Stories in Assembly\, a solo exhibition by Tulu Bayar. On view from June 11 through July 19\, 2026\, the exhibition brings together two of the Turkish-American artist’s recent bodies of work that examine how memory\, identity\, and belonging are constructed through material\, process\, and collective experience. \nAt a moment when migration\, authorship\, and national identity are being actively contested\, Bayar’s work offers a distinct and necessary perspective: one that shifts attention from fixed narratives to lived\, shared\, and continually evolving experiences of home. Her practice foregrounds collaboration\, material transformation\, and the accumulation of traces. This proposes that meaning is not singular or stable\, but assembled across people\, places\, and time. \nWorking across photography and interdisciplinary media\, Bayar uses paper\, soil\, plant matter\, photographic transfer\, and textile processes to create surfaces that hold both image and residue. These materials are not neutral; they carry embedded histories. Through acts of collecting\, layering\, transferring\, and erasing\, Bayar constructs works that operate simultaneously as images and as records of touch\, of movement\, and of exchange. \nThe exhibition centers on two interconnected projects. Mosaic: Immigrant Stories is a collaborative\, community-based work developed through workshops with immigrant participants. Responding to the question “What does home mean?”\, participants share photographs and personal reflections that Bayar translates through transfer processes onto handmade surfaces. Images shift\, fragment\, and partially dissolve\, resisting singular authorship. The resulting works function as both individual artifacts and collective compositions; portraits not of a single subject\, but of a shared condition shaped by displacement\, memory\, and adaptation. The unique book is currently on display at the National Liberty Museum in Philadelphia through August 2027. For this exhibition\, Bayar will present limited-edition rice prints derived from the book. \nIn Cultivated\, developed during a residency in Wyoming\, Bayar turns to the land as both subject and material. She creates paper from soil\, plant matter\, and organic debris gathered on site\, embedding the physical substance of place into each work. Onto these surfaces\, she transfers wide-angle landscape imagery\, bringing together proximity and distance\, material presence and visual representation. These works hold a tension between permanence and fragility\, and between what is fixed in the land and what is continually altered by time\, use\, and perception. \nAcross both series\, Bayar repositions “home” as something constructed through relationships rather than rooted in geography alone. Her work proposes that stories are carried not only across borders\, but through materials\, gestures\, and acts of sharing. In doing so\, she expands the idea of authorship\, inviting multiple voices and histories into the making of each piece. \nBayar’s practice feels particularly urgent now. As debates around migration\, democracy\, and belonging intensify\, especially in the context of the United States’ 250th anniversary\, her work offers a quieter but deeply resonant counterpoint. Rather than asserting fixed identities or boundaries\, it reveals how communities are formed through accumulation\, care\, and exchange\, and how meaning emerges through processes that are collective\, contingent\, and ongoing. \nIn conjunction with the exhibition\, Amos Eno Gallery will host a special live performance by Brooklyn-based saxophonist and composer Caroline Davis on Saturday\, June 13 from 3–5 p.m. Celebrating the release of her album Fallows\, featuring artwork by Tulu Bayar\, the program creates a direct dialogue between sound and material practice. Davis’s improvisational approach — grounded in listening\, responsiveness\, and collective exchange — resonates with Bayar’s exploration of authorship as something distributed and evolving. The event will include an intimate live set\, followed by a vinyl signing\, with albums available for purchase. (RSVP here. Space is limited.) \nAbout the Artist \nTulu Bayar is a Turkish-born American artist and educator based in Lewisburg\, PA. Her interdisciplinary practice spans photography and material-based processes\, and has been exhibited widely in the United States and internationally\, including in Germany\, Denmark\, the United Kingdom\, France\, Turkey\, Italy\, and China. Her work is held in collections including Belfast Exposed Photography\, the Samuel Dorsky Museum\, the Elgiz Museum of Contemporary Art\, the Textile Museum at George Washington University\, and the Samek Art Museum. She is the recipient of numerous grants and residencies\, including a Fulbright Scholar Grant\, and is currently Professor of Photography and Related Media at Bucknell University. \nAbout Amos Eno Gallery \nAmos Eno Gallery has been a fixture in the New York art scene since 1974 when it opened in Soho. The gallery is open Thursdays through Sundays from noon to 6 p.m. and is run by a small community of professional artists\, both from New York City and across the country\, and a part-time director. ​ \nThe gallery is located at 191 Henry Street between Jefferson and Clinton Streets on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. It’s a 5 minute walk from the F Train’s East Broadway Station and a 10 minute walk from the J Train’s Delancey Street – Essex Street Station. \nAmos Eno Gallery’s programs are made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature. \nAmos Eno Gallery is also funded in part thanks to the generosity of the Joseph Roberts Foundation. \nFor more information\, please contact Gallery Director Ellen Sturm Niz at info@amoseno.org.
