François Ghebaly New York Presents Beatrice Arraes: Seven Keys

François Ghebaly New York is hosting "Seven Keys," a solo exhibition of new paintings by São Paulo-based artist Beatrice Arraes. The show features oil on canvas works that blend detailed scenography, observational painting, and a dusken palette to explore displacement and desire. Arraes, a trained dancer, draws inspiration from figures such as Clarice Lispector, Pina Bausch, Eleonore Koch, and Lygia Fagundes Telles. Her enigmatic pictures aim to translate psychological states, both revealing and safeguarding life's mysteries. The exhibition's title comes from a Portuguese expression about going to great lengths to protect something valuable—hiding behind "seven locks and keys." The paintings are installed throughout the New York gallery space. The exhibition is currently on view; specific dates are not provided in the source.
