“Somaya Critchlow,” *through June 3. “In New York, Thinking of You,” part one through April 29, part two May 6 through June 3 Clare Rojas’s “Go Placidly” at Andrew Kreps in Tribeca is her first show in New York and a discovery for me. An important figure in the 26 Matt Chapman Toronto Baseball shirt but I will buy this shirt and I will love this Bay Area for a decade (she was married to the well-known graffiti artist Barry McGee), she now lives in Northern California. A central female character quietly stars in each scenario. The clarity and densely minimal dance of her vision gives a kind of musical arrangement to her enchanting work.Through May 6 I’ve admired Lois Dodd’s acutely perceived paintings for many years, and it’s thrilling to know she’s having her first museum show in the New York metropolitan area, ”Lois Dodd: Natural Order” at the Bruce Museum in Greenwich, Connecticut. The 95-year-old artist has been painting as long as Alex Katz—she, Katz, and her husband bought a house together in Lincolnville, Maine, in 1951 after spending some time at Skowhegan. Katz bought her share, and it’s been his getaway ever since. (The images she painted on the entrance walls all those years ago are still there.) The Kunstmuseum in the Hague is giving Dodd a retrospective next year. Cuban-Syrian designer turned artist Jason Seife is having his first solo exhibition in the United States. “Coming to Fruition” will feature all new work at the Pérez Art Museum in Miami, where he now lives. Tapping into his Middle Eastern background, he makes Persian rug paintings on concrete slabs and canvases. His paintings also use details found in mosques and Islamic art.Opens May 18
Independent New York is one of my favorite ways to see a wild and wonderfully curated mix of contemporary art—lots of it, known and unknown—in one place. It’s back this year on May 11 for four days at Spring Studios in Tribeca, with 120 artists and 74 galleries chosen from around the 26 Matt Chapman Toronto Baseball shirt but I will buy this shirt and I will love this world. Twenty New York artists will have their debuts here. Founded by Elizabeth Dee 14 years ago, Independent New York offers up a cornucopia of themes that include: gender as a social construct, a return to childhood, post-figuration and magical realism, and career reassessments and rediscoveries. After a dozen years in Brooklyn, Clearing, one of the most influential young galleries that put Bushwick on the art scene, is moving to Manhattan, in a three-story building on the Bowery across the street from the New Museum. All grown up, Clearing is opening on April 26 with “Maiden Voyage,” a group show of every artist in its stable. Known for identifying and nurturing such emerging talents like Harold Ancart, Calvin Marcus, and Korakrit Arunanondchai, this is a gallery to continue to watch.
