Two exhibitions that are currently on display at two different
gallery spaces in the same building both offer alluring representations of the
world around us and how our natural habitats appear during different times of
the day and different times of the year.
Arthur Levine presents an exquisite collection of acrylic paintings
and drawings for his Landscapes and Drawings show. He illustrates open, outdoor
scenes of castles sitting atop grassy hills, and images of bridges and
sailboats in the water. Variations of light and dark colors are used to
emphasize the time of day and the weather patterns. Levine’s drawings are precise
black and white executions of mountains and villages.

The other show is one by Joyce Silver titled Nature’s
Melody that features a collection of Silver’s vibrant
paintings and other works that welcome the spring and summer seasons with
images of sunshine and flowers that follow the darker days of the winter
season. One installation known as Forest, however, is a more
somber and reflective piece in the show that features poles representing tree
trunks and serves as a memorial of the Holocaust.
Arthur Levine’s show is on display at the Prince
Street Gallery, and Joyce Silver’s show is on display at the Noho/M55
Gallery. Both gallery spaces are located at 530 W. 25th St., on
the 4th floor, and are both open Tues.—Sat. from 11 a.m.—6 p.m. The exhibitions
will be on display until Jun. 14.
