Published: November 29, 2024; Aithor: Julia Sonrisa

When: December 6, 2024
Where: Space 776 Gallery

Address: 37-39 Clinton Street, New York, NY 10002, United States

Space776 New York is pleased to present Flat Theater, a two-person exhibition featuring artists Alex W. Rader and Jeffrey Morabito. Showcasing 20 paintings, this exhibition explores time- and space-based approaches to viewing and engaging with flat, canvas-based artwork. Curated by Bowie Bo Gyung Kim, this project highlights emerging New York-based painters and their unique perspectives.

Paintings are often described as scenes within a narrative. Interestingly, whether or not the artist intends it, a painting’s narrative heavily depends on each viewer’s individual experience. When viewers bring their perspectives to the artist’s suggested storyline, a unique connection happens between the artist, the artwork, and the viewer. This dynamic relationship adds an intriguing layer of context to flat artwork. With the exhibition Flat Theater, curated by Bowie Bo Gyung Kim, Space776 New York invites viewers to experience painting as a form of theater, engaging each viewer’s interpretation. This two-person exhibition features works by Alex W. Rader and Jeffrey Morabito, each showcasing their unique approaches to this compelling dialogue within art.
