SUMMARY:2025 CERTIFICATE COMPLETION EXHIBITION II
DESCRIPTION:New York Studio School is pleased to present the work of our Certificate graduates in two exhibitions\, the second of which features work by graduate Suzanne Scott. Join us for the Opening Reception on Thursday\, April 24\, 6-8pm. \nNew York Studio School is pleased to present the work of our Certificate graduates in two exhibitions\, the second of which features work by graduate Suzanne Scott. Suzanne writes\, “My work consists of an examination into the idealization of beauty and reverence\, drawing upon mythology and theology\, as well as physical\, mental and emotional ability or disability. Utilizing a narrative approach to delve into these inquiries; employing iconography\, hierarchy\, symbolism and historical reference\, I apply my own life experience. I aim to have just the vapor of the myth remain\, with the bones of the account being my own\, while incorporating contemporary perspectives into these established standards. This body of work investigates the age-old tale of ‘woman as muse’; the entrapment of objects of beauty and wonder for public viewing pleasure.” \n

SUMMARY:Twilight: 21 Works by James Howell
DESCRIPTION:The New York Studio School and the James Howell Foundation are pleased to announce the upcoming exhibition Twilight: 21 Works by James Howell\, a solo show of work by the American artist curated by Silvia Benedetti. The exhibition\, which will run from September 6 to October 20 showcases Howell’s distinctive works\, further cementing his reputation as a significant figure in contemporary art. An opening reception will be held on Friday\, September 6 from 6 to 8pm. \nD. Joy Howell\, President of the James Howell Foundation\, enthusiastically states\, “We are absolutely thrilled to have the James Howell exhibition at the New York Studio School. It is the perfect setting to honor his work\, and I couldn’t be happier to see his artistic legacy shared with such a vibrant and inspiring community.” \nSilvia Benedetti\, curator of the exhibition\, writes\, “James Howell was obsessed with the infinite nuances of gray. His works explore the liminal space between light and shadow\, redefining abstraction in painting. Meticulously crafted in acrylic on canvas\, his paintings are intricate studies of tones of gray. Howell’s limited palette and his eradication of distracting visual elements can be seen as a counterpoint to the expressive chaos of Abstract Expressionism\, while his structured approach echoes minimalism and the grid-based art of the 1960s and 1970s. \nTwilight: 21 Works by James Howell features paintings in which he exclusively used multiple tones of grays that he carefully prepared in a mathematical sequence. In the canvases\, he drew lines he later filled with brushstrokes corresponding to different hues of a certain gray. Each piece is a unique gradation of the color and each is composed of either a single canvas or a sequence of them. Howell’s discipline and focus to a single artistic goal produced also subverts expectations by skipping tones\, adding a humorous touch to the sequence of canvases. Howell’s compulsion for gray is as enigmatic as his artistic process. Beneath the seemingly simple surface of his paintings lies a complex methodology. His process is similar to weaving\, not only pictorially but also in terms of the technique: fine lines on the canvas serve as the warp\, while the brush loaded with gray acts as the weft\, creating a tapestry of tones. A tapestry that confronts us with a true idea of infinity.” \nLaura Bardier\, Executive Director\, adds\, “This exhibition is a meaningful tribute to James Howell’s vision\, and we are proud to bring his art to a place that resonates with his dedication to creative expression.”  \nOn Friday\, September 20 at 6:30pm\, curator Silvia Benedetti will be joined by Laura Bardier\, Executive Director\, James Howell Foundation\, and art historian Alistair Rider in a discussion of Howell’s work in the gallery. The event will be held both in person and live-streamed via Zoom. To attend virtually\, please register by clicking here. \nJames Howell (1935-2014) was an American artist whose work has been exhibited in museums and galleries across the country and internationally. His work is characterized by its meticulous detail in exploring the gradations of light and shadow in color. His signature use of the color gray has defined the last thirty years of his career\, culminating in his Series 10. Inspired by the landscapes of the Pacific Northwest\, Howell’s work is influenced by natural phenomena. His highly mathematical and philosophical process expands his work beyond the boundaries of the canvas. Implementations of differential geometry and the teachings of the Tao Te Ching have been equally important to his process as color theory and brushwork techniques. Howell’s pieces are a part of numerous private and public collections and he has been the recipient of several awards and honors for both his fine art and architectural achievements. Howell describes his work as “a continuous exploration of the interplay between light and shadow\, form and void.” This exhibition reflects Howell’s quest to capture the ephemeral beauty of our world. The relationship between nature\, math\, philosophy\, and art in Howell’s practice creates a wholly unique viewing experience. \nThe James Howell Foundation\, established by D. Joy Howell in 2017\, aims to perpetuate Howell’s legacy and provide access to his archives. This is accomplished through publications\, exhibitions\, and artwork donations. The Foundation also supports art professionals and artists\, especially those who embrace Howell’s interdisciplinary spirit. For instance\, the organization collaborates with NYC schools to offer opportunities for students in curatorial and art historical programs. Moreover\, grants and donations are awarded to institutions that align with the Foundation’s mission. This two-pronged approach nurtures the creative and intellectual efforts of art communities. \nSilvia Benedetti is a Venezuelan New York-based independent art historian\, curator\, and writer. She is a recipient of the 2023 Andy Warhol Foundation and Creative Capital Arts Writers Grant. Her research focuses on opportunities to critically reassess and contextualize the work of peripheral creators in a global ambit as well as the intersection of artistic and social practices. In 2023\, she curated the exhibition Dadas las circunstancias at the Clemente Soto Vélez in the Lower East Side and co-curated with Lindsay Aveilhé Ways of seeing an exhibition at The Gardiner Gallery of Art at Oklahoma State University. Some of her previous curatorial and research positions include Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum\, The Bronx Museum of the Arts\, and Dia Art Foundation. Her writings have appeared in publications such as Hyperallergic\, Artforum\, and post: notes on art in a global context. She holds an MA in Art History and an Advanced Certificate in Curatorial Studies from Hunter College\, and an undergraduate degree in Communications – Journalism from Universidad Monteávila in Caracas.

SUMMARY:Eyal Danieli: A Man of Parts
DESCRIPTION:NYSS is pleased to present Eyal Danieli: A Man of Parts\, the first survey of the late artist’s work\, curated by Robert Storr. The exhibition highlights Danieli’s explorations of a series of motifs over three decades\, featuring works in oil paint; drawings in ink\, charcoal\, and conte crayon; and prints\, including monotypes\, etchings\, and linoleum cuts. An opening reception will be held on Thursday\, June 6 from 6 to 8pm. \nEyal Danieli was born in Pittsburgh in 1961 and spent the next seven years in the United States and Canada. He came of age and was educated in Israel\, where he completed his required military service in the Israel Defence Forces before embarking on his artistic training at Bezalel Academy of Arts & Design. Danieli chose to leave Israel and make his life in New York City\, where he continued his art education at the New York Studio School.  \nAs Robert Storr writes in his curatorial essay\, “He was an uncommonly brilliant thinker about the most vexed questions of cultural identity that have dominated art criticism and artistic creation in recent years\, as well as a painter and draftsman wholly and unapologetically committed to his vocation.” \nDanieli’s work encompasses silhouetted likenesses of an array of metamorphic motifs that symbolize a wide range of aesthetic\, historical\, and spiritual preoccupations. “The images that obsessed him did so because his attitudes toward and thoughts about them were inexhaustibly unresolved\,” observes Storr. Among his imagery are ethnic stereotypes that become ever more enigmatic with each iteration and a figure with a raised arm whose multitude of poses collapses a span of history from the 1940s to our own. Danieli worked both from models in the studio and from photographic and media sources. Storr writes\, “The bluntness of his graphic touch is the foil for his ambivalent regard for the specific subjects he repeatedly addressed and over which he labored long and hard example-by-example. Ceaseless reiteration was his basic methodology\, as if grinding pigments into a ground would release their latent capacities to speak fragile existential truths to blindly belligerent power. And\, as if stating and restating a form would free its buried spiritual content\, which almost alchemically it did in series after series.” \nA Man of Parts includes the abstract stripe and grid paintings that Danieli produced in 2021-2022. Storr writes that the stripes\, which Danieli referred to as surrogates\, “quiver and quicken with diffusing stress\, and some are pulled askew by unknown forces\, making them unique in the lexicon of geometric abstraction.” \nAll of the works in the exhibition\, as Storr explains\, are inflected with Danieli’s “unmatched gift for graphic condensation along with the darkest\, grittiest of gallows humor\, whilst pairing his characteristic dialectical generosity of feeling with bone-chilling dread.” \nOn Wednesday\, June 12\, at 6:30pm\, NYSS will host a screening of “Some Restrictions Apply\,” a 2022 discussion between Danieli and art critic Michael Brenson. \nOn Wednesday\, June 26\, at 6:30pm\, curator Robert Storr will be joined by Michael Brenson\, Elizabeth Hazan\, Elena Sisto\, and Alexi Worth in a discussion of Danieli’s work. The event will be held both in person and live-streamed via Zoom. To attend virtually\, please register by clicking here.  \nNYSS will host an alumni event on Thursday\, July 11 from 6 to 8pm to celebrate the School’s robust community of dedicated alums. \nAn exhibition catalogue will be available in fall 2024.  \nEyal Danieli (1961–2023) lived and worked in Queens and Brooklyn. He studied painting at the Bezalel Academy in Jerusalem and the New York Studio School (1985–1990). He exhibited his work in solo and group exhibitions in the U.S.\, Israel\, and Europe. Recent exhibitions include Eyal Danieli: Late Works at the Elizabeth Harris Gallery and Preoccupied at at 57W57 Arts. Danieli was a recipient of The New York Foundation for the Arts Award in Drawing\, the Pollock-Krasner Foundation Award\, and a Key Holder grant from The Lower East Side Printshop. Danieli’s work has been reviewed in Two Coats of Paint\, The Brooklyn Rail\, Art Critical\, and The New Yorker. The Brooklyn Rail published a tribute to the artist in the April 2024 edition. \nThe School extends a special thank you to Michael Brenson\, Amanda Guest\, and Robert Storr.

Rendered through layers of bright\, visceral paint\, make-up and glitter\, Chase’s figures are suspended in various forms of articulation amidst the backdrop of urban and domestic spaces. These dynamic compositions blend emotional and physical\, internal and external states of being to challenge and subvert canonical misrepresentations and exclusion of the Black body.

SUMMARY:Prudence Peiffer: The Artists of Coenties Slip
DESCRIPTION:In the 1950s and ’60s\, Coenties Slip—an obscure little street at the lower tip of Manhattan overlooking the East River—was home to several extraordinary\, then-struggling artists: Robert Indiana\, Ellsworth Kelly\, Agnes Martin\, James Rosenquist\, Delphine Seyrig\, Lenore Tawney\, and Jack Youngerman. For just over a decade\, this street of dilapidated sail-making lofts and maritime warehouses would serve as the unlikely site of eclectic and influential works of art and spark a singular moment of community and creativity. In the group biography The Slip\, Prudence Peiffer pays homage to the locale that inspired this singular group of artists and changed the course of American art. This talk will explore the long history of one of the oldest streets in New York\, the work that these artists made at the Slip from the wreckage of the city’s many former lives\, and how we are shaped by our environment and how it in turn shapes our work. \nPrudence Peiffer is an art historian\, writer\, and editor\, specializing in modern and contemporary art. She is Director of Content at MoMA\, New York. She received her PhD from Harvard University. Following a postdoctoral fellowship at Columbia University\, she was a Senior Editor at Artforum magazine from 2012-2017\, and Digital Content Director at David Zwirner in 2018. Her writing has appeared in the New York Times\, New York Review of Books\, Artforum\, and Bookforum\, among other publications. Her book THE SLIP: The New York City Street That Changed American Art Foreverwas longlisted for the National Book Award.

SUMMARY:Nathaniel Mary Quinn: Work Ethic & Faith
DESCRIPTION:Nathaniel Mary Quinn‘s practice operates within a world of visual metaphor\, in which identifiable forms and features are mobilized to reveal aspects of character. Images taken from online sources\, fashion magazines\, and family photographs come together to form composite portraits that are at once neo-Dada and adamantly realist\, evoking the intimacy and intensity of a face-to-face encounter. In combining his autobiographical history with an exhaustive range of source materials\, Quinn’s figures strike a balance between the grotesque and the beautiful.

SUMMARY:Life\, Time\, and Performances: Tehching Hsieh in Conversation with Kejia Wu
DESCRIPTION:Tehching Hsieh was born on December 31\, 1950 in Nan-Chou\, Taiwan. Hsieh dropped out from high school in 1967 and took up painting. After finishing compulsory army service (1970-73)\, Hsieh had his first solo show at the gallery of the American News Bureau in Taiwan. Shortly after\, Hsieh stopped painting. He made a performance action\, Jump\, in which he broke both of his ankles. He trained as a seaman\, which he then used as a means to enter the United States. In July of 1974\, Hsieh arrived at a small port near Philadelphia. He was an illegal immigrant in the States for fourteen years until granted amnesty in 1988. \n\n\nStarting in the late 1970s\, Hsieh made five One Year Performances and a Thirteen Year Plan\, inside and outside his studio in New York City. Using long durations\, making art and life simultaneous\, Hsieh achieved one of the most radical approaches in contemporary art. Hsieh’s One Year Performances included One Year Performance 1978-1979 (Cage Piece)\, in which he was locked inside a cell-like cage; One Year Performance 1980-1981 (Time Clock Piece)\, in which he punched time cards with a punch clock (time clock) every hour for a year; One Year Performance 1981-1982 (Outdoor Piece)\, in which he stayed outdoors for one year without entering any building\, subway\, train\, car\, airplane\, ship\, cave\, tent; Art/Life One Year Performance 1983-1984 (Rope Piece)\, in which Hsieh and the artist Linda Montano spent one year bound together by an eight-foot rope tied around their waists without touching each other; and One Year Performance 1985-1986 (No Art Piece)\, in which he did not do art\, talk art\, see art\, read art or go to art gallery and museums for one year. \n\n\nDuring Hsieh’s Thirteen Year Plan\, Tehching Hsieh 1986-1999\, he made art but did not show it publicly. \n\n\nThe first four One Year Performances made Hsieh a regular name in the art scene in New York; the last two pieces\, intentionally retreating from the art world\, set a tone of sustained invisibility. Since the Millennium\, released from the restriction of not showing his works during the thirteen-year period\, Hsieh has exhibited his work in North and South America\, Asia and Europe. Hsieh’s recent exhibition Doing Time was presented by Taiwan Pavilion at 57th Venice Art Biennale\, 2017; One Year Performance 1978-1979 (Cage Piece) was exhibited at MoMA\, 2009\,M+ Museum\, Hong Kong\, 2021-2023. One Year Performance 1980-1981 (Time Clock Piece) was exhibited at the Guggenheim Museum\, New York\, 2009\, at Tate Modern\, London\, 2017-2018\, at the Staatliche Museen zu Berlin\, 2023\, and at National Taiwan Museum\, 2023. \n\n\nHsieh lives in Brooklyn\, New York. \nKejia Wu is an art historian\, columnist for the Financial Times Chinese Edition and a trustee of New York Studio School of Drawing\, Painting and Sculpture. She authored The European Fine Art Foundation’s Art Market Report in 2019. Her book A Modern History of China’s Art Market was published in 2023 by Routledge. Kejia was presented the Asia Art Pioneers Award by ArtReview Asia\, LEAP magazine\, and The Art Newspaper China Edition in 2019. \nShe was a member of the faculty at Claremont Graduate University and Sotheby’s Institute of Art\, and previously oversaw Asia projects and strategy at Sotheby’s in the office of the CEO while based in New York. \nPrior to moving to New York\, Kejia worked in Asia for more than a decade advising various art organizations including the British Museum\, the Victoria and Albert Museum\, the first Gerhard Richter retrospective at the National Art Museum of China\, the Chinese Pavilion at the 53rd Venice Biennale\, Art Dubai\, and ArtSingapore. She was co-founder of the East Modern Art Center (EMAC)\, the first nonprofit contemporary art center in Beijing\, and was in charge of its contemporary art programs and operations. The art performance created at EMAC\, Dancing with Farmers\, was featured at the Chinese Pavilion of the 56th Venice Biennial in 2015. \nKejia has lectured and spoken about art at numerous institutions including Columbia University\, NYU\, NYU Shanghai\, Tsinghua University\, The European Fine Art Foundation (TEFAF) Maastricht and New York\, The City University of Hong Kong\, Bilgi University in Istanbul\, Guardian Fine Art Asia\, The Foreign Correspondents Club of Thailand and the Ullens Center for Contemporary Art in Beijing. Her research and viewpoints have been quoted and reported on by the New York Times\, Bloomberg\, New York Review of Books\, South China Morning Post\, The Art Newspaper\, Gazette Drouot\, Financial Times\, etc. \nKejia is a graduate of Yale University and Renmin University.

SUMMARY:The Worlds of Chuck Bowdish
DESCRIPTION:New York Studio School is pleased to present a solo exhibition of work by the late artist Chuck Bowdish. Organized in collaboration with the artist’s estate\, The Worlds of Chuck Bowdish draws on several decades of work to explore the various facets of Bowdish’s highly personal and enigmatic paintings\, watercolors\, collages\, drawings\, and sculptures. An opening reception will take place on Friday\, January 19\, which will include a screening of Peter Wareing’s documentary film\, Chuck Bowdish: Painter (2001). \nBowdish’s career is marked by an ethos of experimentation\, in search of what he described as “grace and honesty” in the face of the “darkness of human character.” The subject matter of Bowdish’s works emerges from both keenly observing the world around him and probing the depths of his subconscious. The Worlds of Chuck Bowdish is organized around the specificity of place that informed his artmaking in subject matter\, palette\, and materials\, even as he became increasingly preoccupied with the landscapes and narratives of the imagination. Diagnosed with bipolar disorder\, Bowdish found solace in the act of painting. “When I am behind the easel\,” he explained\, “I can feel the forms and shapes in my physical body coming out in a very concrete way. It is truly therapeutic.” \nBowdish flourished while attending the Ringling School of Art in Sarasota\, Florida\, from 1977 through 1980. There he studied figure painting and drawing\, concentrating his efforts on watercolor—a medium that remained central to his practice throughout his career. Motifs inspired by Florida\, such as palm trees\, boats\, and shorelines\, recur across his bodies of work. \nBowdish’s years in New York evidence a dedicated interest in form while studying illustration and figuration at the Art Students League and figural sculpture at NYSS. He continued to refine his draughtsmanship and developed a singular sense of color\, which\, he observed\, was “considerably brightened” by the “color\, light\, and culture” of San Miguel de Allende\, where he lived from 1986 to 1991. Returning to New York\, he pursued figure painting and anatomical studies at the New York Academy of Art\, a period of intensive study that resulted in large\, haunting oil paintings of nudes in imagined landscapes inhabiting unknowable narratives. The surfaces of his gestural oil paintings are marked by scratches and scrapes\, themselves becoming objects with storied histories of erasure\, change\, and discovery\, like Roman frescoes. In his later oil paintings\, watercolors\, and collages from New York and\, finally\, Hendersonville\, North Carolina\, he worked primarily from his imagination and dreams\, reformulating themes and narratives of innocence\, violence\, loss\, and sexuality central to the human condition. His inventive deployment of scale underscores the emotional and psychological tenor of much of his work\, as does the high-contrast\, stage-like lighting. \nBowdish’s work signals a profound and expansive familiarity with the history of art. His angular forms at times evoke the timelessness of Archaic sculpture\, his landscapes the dreamlike scenes of the Fauves. His winged figures conjure Fra Angelico’s and his nudes Balthus’s. Yet\, Bowdish’s work complexly intertwines his personal lived experience with broader national and international events through these familiar art historical forms. Allusions to a midcentury childhood defined by the American idealism of John F. Kennedy’s presidency and the brutality of the Vietnam War haunt scenes populated by recurring motifs of Greek amphoras\, military tanks\, ballet dancers\, Judeo-Christian symbols\, fedora-wearing mobsters\, and Gauguin-inspired nudes. Artist Bruce Gagnier\, with whom Bowdish studied at NYSS\, highlights the metaphoric nature of Bowdish’s work\, explaining that “he fashions forms that project feelings that lie within us all. Here\, as in all great painting\, life comes to the canvas with the urgency of the painter’s brush.” This exhibition explores the cosmologies he experienced\, remembered\, and imagined. \nThe Worlds of Chuck Bowdish serves as an important critical examination of an artist whose prolific output has yet to be fully considered. Bowdish’s expansive body of work searches for innocence and transcendence in a post-industrial\, fragmented\, and\, at times\, perilous world. As the artist himself wrote\, “One of the responsibilities of an artist is to reaffirm our humanity which is basically our capacity to love.” Also on view in the exhibition is Peter Wareing’s thirty-minute film Chuck Bowdish: Painter (2001) that chronicles Bowdish’s artistic journey. \nFollowing its presentation at NYSS\, the exhibition will be on view at the Ringling College of Art and Design\, Sarasota\, FL\, during their 2025-2026 season. \nOn February 13\, NYSS will host an Evening Lecture Series panel discussion on Bowdish’s work featuring Sasha Chermayeff\, Bruce Gagnier\, Ernie Sandidge\, and Lisa Steiner. The event will start at 6:30 pm ET and will be held in person and livestreamed on Zoom and YouTube Live. The occasion will also mark the launch of the illustrated exhibition catalogue\, The Worlds of Chuck Bowdish\, which will include remembrances by friends and fellow artists\, such as SoHyun Bae\, Chris Carone\, Marianne Gagnier\, and Nels Pierce\, among others. \nChuck Bowdish (1959-2022) was born in Dayton\, Ohio. His peripatetic childhood was defined by his fighter pilot father’s tours of duty in the Vietnam era. He first learned to draw from his mother\, a painter and schoolteacher. He attended the Ringling School of Art and Design in Sarasota in the late 1970s\, followed by the Art Students League and NYSS in the early 1980s. In New York he joined the downtown art scene and began working as an illustrator with The New York Times and Fortune. After several years in Mexico\, he returned to New York and enrolled at the New York Academy of Art. His awards include the Edgar Whitney Scholarship (1981)\, “Best of Show” at the 1993 Ringling alumni exhibition\, the Wynn Newhouse Award (2012) and the Hassam\, Speicher\, Betts\, and Symons Fund Purchase Award from the American Academy of Arts and Letters (2015). He showed often with steven harvey fine arts projects\, New York\, and Galerie Timothy Tew\, Atlanta\, GA\, among several other galleries\, and his work is in the collection of The Butler Institute of American Art\, Youngstown\, Ohio; Western Carolina University Art Museum\, Cullowhee\, North Carolina; and the William Louis-Dreyfus Foundation\, Mt. Kisco\, New York. Recent exhibitions include Chuck Bowdish: Complete Works\, Art at Kings Oaks\, Newtown\, PA\, and the group exhibition The Way I’m Wired: Artist Reflections on Neurodiversity\, Western Carolina University Fine Art Museum\, Cullowhee\, North Carolina. \nThe School extends a special thank you to the family of Chuck Bowdish.

SUMMARY:LOURDES BERNARD: The Women of April
DESCRIPTION:  \nIt begins when the first bombs were fallen on our home. American foreign policy is the beginning of American citizenship for so many of us. – Ocean Vuong \nThe New York Studio School presents The Women of April\, a research-based group of works on paper by Lourdes Bernard that commemorate the 57th anniversary of the April 1965 revolution and US invasion of the Dominican Republic\, on view March 14 – April 10\, 2022. \nThe narrative images celebrate and highlight the role of “The Women of April\,” untrained civilian resistance fighters who fought against the 42\,000 US Marines ordered by LBJ to invade the small Caribbean nation. In 2017\, shortly after attending the DC Women’s March and as the previous administration rolled out controversial immigration policies\, artist Lourdes Bernard began to research her family’s migration journey from the Dominican Republic in 1965. It was through this research that she discovered “Las Mujeres de Abril” (“The Women of April”)\, and learned of the US invasion that displaced thousands of Dominicans\, including her family. The Women of April were attorneys\, journalists\, artists\, teachers\, academics\, housewives\, and students. Bernard excavates this hidden history through her work\, re-imagining their stories and struggle for freedom. \nThe research became a three-part Dominican Migration series\, speaking directly to the issues of American militarism and Dominican resistance that were specific to April 1965. Yet the artwork moves beyond Bernard’s personal story\, engaging in contemporary questions about the impact of US foreign policy and the cost of displacement\, immigration\, and imperialism\, as well as the heroic power of the collective. The depictions\, created with bold outlines and blocks of washy color in watercolor\, acrylic flash paint\, and pen and ink on paper\, invite the audience to engage with this history so it no longer lives only in the memory of those who lived it. “This art is about remembrance and reclaims stories I did not know I carried\,” the artist explains. “Memories offer us a basis for meaning and integration. Remembrance is a path to discovery\, and I learned that the aftershock of the US invasion in April 1965 is still with us in the form of the Dominican diaspora\, now the fourth largest Latino community in the US.” \nAs honed down as Bernard’s drawings are\, the specificity of physiognomies\, poses\, body language\, demeanor\, age\, and apparel\, and the brilliantly selected details of these portraits\, which is what these pictures ultimately are\, transmit with enormous precision readily recognizable types and individuals. Moreover\, the images have been made more compelling and captivating through the acuity of Bernard’s adroit graphism: she knows how to draw. Her seemingly rapid sketches precisely transmit a pose\, an expression\, a scene\, the dress\, the gestures\, the props—and draws the viewer as well into the world she depicts. – Aimée Brown Price\, 2020 \nLourdes Bernard is a Dominican-American artist raised in Brooklyn\, a graduate of Syracuse University School of Architecture and The New York Studio School.
