A painting-centric guide to art exhibitions in New York City this month. We’re recommending Wendy White’s exhibition of sculpture and painting at Denny Dimin, Josh Abelow’s take on abstraction at Magenta Plains, and Alyssa Fanning’s delicate drawings at Platform Project Space. I’ll have a small painting on view at Theodore, now located in Tribeca, in “Pause,” a traditional summer group show featuring Bill Albertini, Stephen Bron, Eric Brown, Peter Krashes, Michelle Vaughan, Andrew Witkin alongside work by one of my favorites: Sylvia Plimack Mangold. Opening June 18. –Sharon Butler
