Alex McQuilkin's Teenage Angst Explored in Long Island City Exhibition

Alex McQuilkin's work at Marvelli Gallery explores themes of perpetual teenage angst, contrasting with other artists' approaches to early girlhood. The exhibition runs at PS1 Contemporary Art Center until September 25, located at 22-25 Jackson Avenue at 46th Avenue in Long Island City. McQuilkin's specific identification with early cinema connects to broader feminist-influenced art trends. A version of this coverage originally appeared in the New York Sun on July 20, 2006. The gallery can be contacted at 718 784 2084.
