Opening on September 9, the New York Studio School showcases 'Decameron: David Cohen's Decade of Exhibitions at the New York Studio School, 2000-2010.' This exhibition celebrates curator David Cohen's transition to devote his efforts to artcritical. It features John Newman's 'orange and pinkspiration,' previously shown in 2008, alongside works from over fifty artists in various mediums, including painting, sculpture, photography, and video. Notable artists include Alex Katz, Ellsworth Kelly, Philip Pearlstein, and many others.
