Featured Project

Gaby Heit, mixed-media by Robert Reinhardt, @boxspringgallery

There is an exciting new gallery in the Crane Building located in the Old Kensington neighborhood of Philadelphia joyfully titled Box Spring Gallery, a brainchild of curator and creative director Gaby Heit. Gaby and I go way back to when I knew her as the director of Prelude Gallery in center-city Philadelphia. With her extensive background in both art and design, this place of her own sets high expectations for fresh, new work that is multidisciplinary and accessible.

London-based artist Francesca Mollett is now on view at the GRIMM gallery in a new solo exhibition titled Corso. In this second solo show at the gallery, Mollett presents more daring monumental canvases with bold colors, a contrast to the artist’s previous work. The work mirrors the subtlety of Vuillard and semi-recognizable abstraction, but the artist’s maturity and confidence make this a must-see in Tribeca. The show runs through June 22nd.
