exhibition · 2026-04-23

Howard Scott Gallery presented an exhibition at its 529 West 20th Street location from February through March 11, 2006. The show examined the color white through multiple lenses, including its scientific definition as the combination of all colors in light theory. White was also considered as a spiritual symbol representing purity at one extreme of a spectrum, contrasting with life's various shades of gray. For artists, the color carries more practical and material implications. The gallery's contact number was 646-486-7004.
