Award-winning NYC blogazine with a focus on painting
Friday, November 6, 2026
Contributed by Leslie Roberts / In “Polychrome,” Bernay Fine Art presents paintings by three painters – Jenny Kemp, Audrey Stone, and Deborah Zlotsky – who all create striking chromatic relationships by organizing color in structures of parallel strips. The show makes clear how much lurks beneath these general descriptions. It’s a pleasure to study these paintings side by side and consider each artist’s singular use of color and paint.
In the heart of central New York, nestled among the rolling hills of New Berlin, stands a unique testament to artistic collaboration, friendship, and innovation: The Sam and Adele Golden Foundation for the Arts. Established in 1997, the Foundation honors the legacy of Sam and Adele Golden, the visionary co-founders of Golden Artist Colors, a company dedicated to producing fine paint for fine art. We invite you to join us there in celebrating the profound impact that art and community have on our lives at the Foundation’s annual art benefit and auction on August 3rd from 4:30 to 8:00 PM. It promises to be our most exciting event yet.
From November 1 to 6, the Two Coats of Paint Residency Program welcomes Deborah Zlotsky. An abstract painter who teaches at the Rhode Island School of Design, Deborah has developed an idiosyncratic syntax of contours, stripes, planes, and near-trompe l’oeil passages, which inventively probe the intersection of imagined visual language and observational translation.
