    Gallery 16: Alex Zecca - New Work.

    Review by RWM: Fascinating works with an abundance of style and technique. Easy to seduced by this art. Wonderful use of perspective and movement and colors that reverberate. Memorable rhythm and motion. You're pulled into the science fiction of it all, almost like The Twilight Zone or Doctor Who.

    Comment by AB: Impossibly accurate ink-on-paper works by Alex Zecca are like Op Art on steroids-- patterns created by painstakingly drawing thousands of orderly multicolor lines. The most amazing part (aside from their perfection)? He actually counts and documents the total number of lines in each piece. This show is the ultimate pinkie-cam paradise. Worth seeing and marveling at.

    Refusalon at JW Marriott Union Square: Provisional Haven Exhibition. Curated by Anna Novakov.

    Artists: Ron Hutt, Bijan Yashar, Jennifer Locke, Justin Charles Hoover, Ana Teresa Fernandez, Sabina Ott, Michelle Wasson, Jack Leamy, Yin-Ju Chen, Felipe Dulzaides.

    Comment by AB: Refusalon director Shmulik Krampf fills the top and bottom floors of this tony hotel with all manner of art-- paintings, sculpture, glass, photography, digital images, installations, mixed media works and on and on and on. And the award for Most Entertaining Art goes to Bijan Yashar for his exquisitely bad photographs of museum paintings with high-gloss finishes taken at the perfect angles to maximize glare from their lighting.
