Contributed by Karlyn Benson / There are a few exhibitions coinciding with Pride Month this June, including photographs by Fred W. McDarrah at CPW and drawings by Joe Sinness, both in Kingston. Notable exhibitions continuing or opening include Other Realities (Exploring Proximate Mysticisms) at Bill Arning Exhibitions; Jenny Kemp and Cory Siegler at Turley Gallery; Catherine Haggarty, Just Drawing, at Geary; Kathy Greenwood: Catch, Cover, Carry at WAAM; Bethany Collins at Alexander Gray Associates, and Sharon Butler Buildingdrawing at Furnace – Art on Paper Archive. I’m looking forward to the June 2 opening of ‘T’ Space Gallery in Rhinebeck, with an exhibition of paintings and sculpture by Peter Halley and Steph Gonzalez-Turner, and to summer shows at the Al Held Foundation (On the Grounds) and the Wassaic Project (Tall Shadows in Short Order). Finally, I’ll be moderating an artist talk at the Garrison Art Center on June 8 with Margaret Lanzetta, Niki Lederer, and David Packer in conjunction with their 3-person show.
