Arguably the world's most valuable, busiest and most crowded pieces of real estate, Midtown Manhattan is what most visitors think of when they think of New York City. Home to some of the city's most iconic architecture, from Gothic to Post-Modern and from Beaux-Arts to Art Deco (lots of Art Deco). it's not difficult to understand why.

Opening Reception | Mixed Media Drawings: Lia Chavez's Carceri


The exhibition features mixed media drawings on delicate Japanese paper created through a process that converts sensory deprivation into drawing. “Carceri,” which literally means isolated places, were inspired by Saint Francis of Assisi's journeys into caves to meditate where he wore blinders, claiming the spiritual light he experienced in meditation was so great that any additional (physical) light would be lethal. These works were generated through several hours in a meditative state while continually blindfolded without sound. The listening facilitated by extreme forms of aural and visual silence has been central to the artist’s process and has proven to be a useful tool for generating natural breakthroughs of perception. Lia Chavez is a New York-based artist working in a wide range of media, including performance, photographic processes, painting, sculpture and installation. Her work has been featured in a number of internationally renowned venues, including the Venice Biennale, Istanbul Biennial, Frieze Art Fair and The Armory Show.
