The Gallery at Yellow Studio
‘Traces of the Infinite’ Exhibition
The Gallery at Yellow Studio presents "Traces of the Infinite," a small group exhibition featuring the work of Helena Palazzi, Soli Pierce, and Lara Saget, on view through Oct. 18. The exhibition brings together three practices that share an interest in a rawness of material and form, and a refusal to treat separation as final.
Pierce and Saget both build their work from the materials of the natural world, stone, wood, glass, and metal, treating found and raw matter as a starting point rather than a finished thing. Palazzi's paintings meet that work with a muted palette and layered surface that hold the same quiet register. Together, the artists share an interest in what lies beneath the visible surface of a work, and in the moments when the boundaries we take for granted begin to give way.
The Domestic Lives of the Founding Families
Through Oct. 4 at the Katonah Museum of Art. This exhibition explores the private worlds of America’s founders through furniture, fine art, decorative, and personal objects from their homes—revealing how domestic spaces shaped political life and diplomacy. With special focus on New York figures such as John Jay and Alexander Hamilton among others, Diplomacy at Home: The Domestic Lives of the Founding Families also foregrounds the essential roles of women including Martha Washington and Sarah Jay, who were instrumental to the development of the political and diplomatic culture of the newly formed United States. The exhibition highlights the value of material culture in defining the Founding Families’ central role as the architects who framed the foundation for our collective national history and explores the meaning of “home” across lives defined by public service.
