Carter opening at Salon 94

Carter opening Salon 94

The warm weather gods shined on last night’s Lower East Side gallery crawl, climaxing with Carter’s paintings at Salon 94’s Freemans Alley locale.

“And Within Area Although,” up until Oct. 24, showcases Carter’s sweeping wall-sized paintings which begin with digital photography. He then paints, draws and pastes, creating multi-layered images evoking art history, time passage and beauty.

Collage is also effectively used by Jacob Robichaux’s “Tacto” show at Museum 52 where he applies coarse and delicate materials to canvas and paper. Using potent color combinations and slashed Fontana-like canvases, he makes painted objects which verge on sculpture.
