Contributed by Peter Malone / “Long story short” could describe many an art review, but here it is also the name of one of a growing number of pocket galleries along the section of Henry Street beneath the Manhattan Bridge. Long Story Short NYC recently hosted an exhibition of a dozen of Siobhan McBride’s small but compelling paintings, titled “Always Means Never Not” and curated by Stavroula Coulianidis.
A twelve-inch canvas Lisa Yuskavage included in her exhibition at David Zwirner upstages the entire show and much of the work the artist has exhibited to date.
Combining the roles of curator and participating artist, Zak Kitnick, in collaboration with gallery director Meredith Rosen swept an engaging mix of genres into a pair of compact exhibition rooms matching their choices to an installation plan that emphasizes each pieces distance from the floor relevant to the human body.
