Anne Neely's Water Stories Exhibition at Kathryn Markel Fine Arts Through May 23
The exhibition Water Stories by Anne Neely is currently on display at Kathryn Markel Fine Arts, located at 529 West 20th Street, until May 23. This showcase comes after a two-year project at the Museum of Science in Boston, which concluded in January. A review from Franklin Einspruch in 2011 highlights Neely's previous exhibition, Anne Neely: Mopang: Recent Work, held from September 7 to October 8, 2011, at 531 West 25th Street, NYC. Neely draws inspiration from Marq de Villiers' book Water: The Fate of Our Most Precious Resource, which discusses threats to the Mopang Aquifer in the late 1980s. Her artwork features multicolored dots and marks to depict groundwater, with pieces such as Mopang (2010) and Kettle Hole (2010-11) exemplifying her style.
