opens tonight, Jan 11, 6-8p: “Stairs and Ramps”  Todd Chilton Feature Inc Gallery, 131 Allen St., NYC Todd Chilton’s relatively small and intensely colored abstract oil paintings layer patterns that are bounded by the edge of the canvas, leading you to believe these paintings are easily graspable. The exhibition title, Stairs and Ramps, references the flat and manipulated space of computer games and, as well, ways to move by foot or wheelchair through architectural space. At the same time, it is also just two ways to graphically read a triangle, the shape that is the basis of the patterns in most of these paintings. Titles of the paintings point to alternate readings of what may be initially perceived. Geometry is undermined by handedness.

thru Dec 22: “the flower and her inner focus”  Kinke Kooi  Feature Inc Gallery, 131 Allen St., NYC (bt Delancey & Rivington) “For me, in a strange way, decoration has to do with making connections. That’s why I fill in spaces in between: to dissolve opposition. To be overwhelmed by nature is to dissolve into a bigger whole. It is an inclusive situation, which for me is the same as a domestic situation… I think femininity still deserves and needs to be visualized from more perspectives. I would like to fill in these gaps in our visual information.” —Kinke Kooi, November 2013 pictured: "The Flower and Her Inner Focus 3", 2013; acrylic paint, graphite, colored pencil on paper; 53.75 x 53.75”

Driven to Abstraction:
The void is nothing but at in works at the Venice Biennale this year, where abstraction has form, function, and coded messages, ranging from the mediumistic paintings of Hilma af Klint to anonymous Tantric works from India representing Shiva Linga. Details of Sarah Sze's work for the United States Pavilion and Bashir Makhoul's installation representing Palestine--crowd-sourced boxes that create a shantytown in a Venice garden--round out the selection.
