New Painting 

Online Exhibition June 15, 2023 – July 15, 2023

New Painting is looking to represent a wide variety of styles and movements, united by unique and unexpected investigations of surface, depth, color, and form. Whether belonging to a distinct tradition, intermingling genres and techniques to create a work that reinvents the old in light of the new, or striving to form a new visual language altogether, Site:Brooklyn aims to bring together the most exciting work in contemporary painting.
