New York, NY | ArtTable’s Art Law Series: Building and Managing a Fine Art Collection
2025-05-09 09:00 - 11:00 | Patterson Belknap Webb & Tyler LLP, 1133 6th Ave 24th Floor, New York, New York, 10036, United States
Join us for the third installment of ArtTable’s Art Law Series, produced in partnership with Patterson Belknap Webb & Tyler LLP. In this conversation, we will explore the various roles and responsibilities that are involved when building and managing an art collection. Coinciding with the Spring art fair season in New York, a city whose contemporary art scene is constantly evolving, this panel will focus on the professionals who help collectors navigate the collection- building and management process. What resources are available to guide collectors when purchasing artworks? How should a collector care for the art once it is in their collection? What are the responsibilities when owning fine art that new collectors might not be aware of? We will hear from several arts professionals involved at the different stages of collection-building, from the initial purchase to long-time care and conservation.

This conversation will build on topics explored in the first two conversations in this series: Responsible Transacting in the Art Market (held at Patterson Belknap’s New York office in April 2024) and From Purchase to Patronage: Stewarding Your Growing Collection (hosted at Untitled Art Miami Beach in December 2024, with additional support from Private Client Select and SRI Fine Art Services). If you missed us in Miami Beach, you can enjoy our December conversation courtesy of the Untitled Art Fairs Podcast!

New York, NY | Curator-Led Tour of "Madalena Santos Reinbolt: A Head Full of Planets" at the American Folk Art Museum
2025-05-13 14:00 - 15:00 | American Folk Art Museum, 2 Lincoln Square, NY, United States
Join ArtTable for a curator-led tour of Madalena Santos Reinbolt: A Head Full of Planets at the American Folk Art Museum, led by Valérie Rousseau, PhD, Curatorial Chair and Senior Curator of 20th-Century & Contemporary Art.

Featuring 42 textile works and oil paintings, Madalena Santos Reinbolt: A Head Full of Planets is the first comprehensive survey of Santos Reinbolt’s art ever presented and marks the first-ever solo museum exhibition for the artist organized outside her native Brazil. Best known for her large-scale embroideries made from hundreds of vibrant colored threads, which the artist referred to as quadros de lã (“wool paintings”), the exhibition represents more than half of all known works by the artist and examines the artist’s work through a variety of lenses, including gender, race, and socio-economic dynamics.

A Head Full of Planets explores the context in which Santos Reinbolt’s artistic practice crystallized in the early 1950s, after she became a live-in cook for the architect Lota de Macedo Soares and her partner, the American poet Elizabeth Bishop, at their home in Petrópolis, a mountain getaway favored by Brazilian high society. It was not until the mid-1960s, while working in another household, that she began to dedicate herself to embroidery and would begin creating many of the works for which she is best known today.

Click here to read more about the exhibition and this mysterious yet extraordinary artist, as well as a recent artnet article about the exhibition and Dr. Rousseau’s curatorial process.

The American Folk Art Museum is fully accessible. Gallery stools and wheelchairs are available upon request, and an access ramp is available to enter the upper gallery if needed. If you require additional accommodations, please email us at programs@arttable.org.

New York, NY | Curator-Led Tour of "Saya Woolfalk: Empathic Universe" with Alexandra Schwartz
2025-05-20 17:00 - 18:00 | Museum of Arts & Design, 2 Columbus Circle, New York City, NY, 10019, United States
Join ArtTable for a curator-led tour of Saya Woolfalk: Empathic Universe at the Museum of Arts & Design, led by Alexandra Schwartz, Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art, Craft, and Design.

The first retrospective of the artist’s two decades of world-building installations, the exhibition showcases Woolfalk’s ambitious fictional narrative of an imagined race of women known as “Empathics.” Woolfalk has created for the Empathics’ their own distinctive visual imagery, symbolism, and folklore, which reflect her investigations of African, African American, Japanese, European, and Brazilian art, craft, and storytelling. In this parable told through garment-based sculptures, video, paintings, works on paper, and performances, cultures mix, clash, and are ultimately transformed through shared understanding.

Boston, MA | MeetAT at Gallery NAGA
2025-05-22 17:30 - 19:00 | Gallery NAGA, 67 Newbury St, Boston, Massachusetts, 02116, United States
You’re invited to our next Boston MeetAT networking event on May 22, graciously hosted by Meg White, Director of Gallery NAGA. Join us for an evening of light refreshments and engaging conversations with fellow ArtTable members and new connections.

Located within the Church of the Covenant in Boston’s historic Back Bay neighborhood, Gallery NAGA (formerly Newbury Associated Guild of Artists) was founded in 1977, when a group of artists placed their work on display in what used to be the chapel of the church.

As we approach our 50th year, we continue NAGA’s legacy as an inclusive and contemplative sanctuary for art and dialogue, supporting both emerging and established artists in the New England area and beyond.

While our primary focus is painting, we also represent exceptional contemporary photographers, printmakers, and sculptors. We specialize in studio furniture, presenting many of the premier makers of unique and limited edition furniture in the country.

For this event, Gallery NAGA is pleased to present our fourth major solo exhibition of paintings by Nicole Chesney.

Nicole Chesney: New Paintings is on exhibition from May 2 to 31.

Nicole Chesney’s abstract paintings are oil paint on acid-etched and mirrored glass. This exhibition continues Chesney’s endless wondering with notions of sky and water and investigations of perception.

Glass, with all its transformative qualities, is a surface onto which Nicole Chesney can add, subtract, and move oil paint around; colors are reflected in a way that canvas or paper doesn’t allow for. Seen from one angle, her painting surfaces are matte and brushy, seen from another angle, they are reflective and elusive.

Chesney’s work is exhibited and collected internationally including the permanent collections of the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, New Britain Museum of American Art, Toledo Museum of Art, Newport Art Museum, RISD Museum, Palm Springs Art Museum, Corning Museum of Glass and many more.

Los Angeles, CA | Artist Studio Visit with Suchitra Mattai

We’re excited to present a studio visit with Suchitra Mattai in Los Angeles!

Suchitra Mattai is a multi-disciplinary American artist of Indo-Caribbean descent who creates work that sheds light on untold histories through the exploration of memory and myth. She often combines processes and materials once associated with the domestic sphere, such as embroidery, sewing, “weaving,” and found clothing, to honor the labor of women and to preserve ancestral stories. Past projects include solo exhibitions at the National Museum of Women in the Arts in Washington, DC, the ICA San Francisco, the Tampa Museum of Art, Socrates Sculpture Park in NYC and group exhibitions at the MCA Chicago, the ICA Boston, Crystal Bridges Museum of Art, the Sharjah Biennial 14 (Sharjah, UAE), and the MCA San Diego.

New York, NY | Curator-Led Tour of "Hilma af Klint: What Stands Behind the Flowers" with Jodi Hauptman
2025-05-27 12:00 - 13:00 | The Museum of Modern Art, 11 West 53 Street, New York, NY, 10019, United States
Join ArtTable for a curator-led tour of Hilma af Klint: What Stands Behind Flowers at the Museum of Modern Art! The tour will be led by Jodi Hauptman, The Richard Roth Senior Curator, Department of Drawings and Prints at MoMA.

In the spring and summer of 1919 and 1920, during a period of intense engagement with nature, artist Hilma af Klint drew flowers almost every day. “I will try,” she wrote, “to grasp the flowers of the earth.” This exhibition focuses on a portfolio of drawings new to MoMA’s collection—jewel-toned watercolors made by a keen-eyed naturalist, attuned to the rhythms and bounty of the blooming season.

Breaking with traditional botanical art, af Klint juxtaposed her exquisitely rendered blossoms with precisely drawn diagrams: a blooming sunflower is echoed by nested circles; a marsh marigold is accompanied by mirrored spirals; a cluster of budding branches is set against checkerboards of dots and strokes. With this profusion of forms—an expansion of the abstract language for which she is best known—af Klint visualizes “what stands behind the flowers,” demonstrating her belief that careful observation of her surroundings reveals ineffable aspects of the human condition.

Af Klint imagined her portfolio as an atlas—or in botanical terms a flora—that details the plants of Sweden, where she lived and worked. Hers, however, is a flora of the spirit, a mapping of the natural world in spiritual terms that would stand alongside any scientific resource. Putting representation and abstraction, close looking and envisioning, art and botany into dialogue, af Klint’s drawings recognize the interconnectedness of all living things. “I have shown,” she wrote, “that there is a connection between the plant world and the world of the soul.”

Philadelphia, PA | MeetAT at Arthur Ross Gallery
2025-05-30 17:30 - 19:00 | The Arthur Ross Gallery, 220 S 34th St (In the Fisher Fine Arts Library), Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 19104
You’re invited to a Philadelphia MeetAT networking event on May 30, graciously hosted by Emily Zimmerman, Director of Exhibitions and Curatorial Affairs at Arthur Ross Gallery. Join us for an evening of light refreshments and engaging conversations with fellow ArtTable members and new connections.

The Arthur Ross Gallery has a mission is to Engage, Educate, and Inspire. The Arthur Ross Gallery is a resource for the entire University community, across schools and departments, as well as the local community and scholars around the world. Located at the heart of the University of Pennsylvania, the Arthur Ross Gallery is an intimate exhibition space that presents thought-provoking exhibitions of art across cultures, media and time. Curators, scholars, artists, and Penn students present original research through our exhibitions, symposia, and curatorial seminars. Exhibition-related programs include films, music, performances, spoken word, talks, and tours.

Housed in the historic Fisher Fine Arts Library building on the main campus of one of the world’s great research universities, the Arthur Ross Gallery serves both the University and the Philadelphia communities. The Gallery is committed to advancing the teaching and research missions of the University through integrating knowledge across disciplines, innovation, and providing access through local, national, and global engagement.

The Gallery is free and open to the public.

For this event, Arthur Ross Gallery is pleased to present Scattered Earth, Sounded Depth: Penn Fine Arts MFA Thesis Exhibition, featuring the work of Eissa Attar and Alvin Luong.

Through installation, moving image, and printmaking, Attar and Luong offer poetic reflections on landscapes and cultural histories. Their works explore geography as a site of cultural memory and migration while critically examining documentary practices and modes of display.

Eissa Attar’s practice investigates migration, belonging, and entropy through photography and moving image works. In Extract You Again, a series of sand drawings on acetate layered over images of consumer products and waste, Attar reflects on cycles of consumption and erasure in Saudi Arabia’s evolving landscape.

Alvin Luong’s multichannel video installation, Corals of Bidong, connects the history of Malaysia’s Bidong Island—once a refugee camp following the Vietnam War—to its present-day use as a coral research facility and a dubious coral wildlife trade. Developed over two years of intensive research, the work offers a profound meditation on human and natural migration. Through video, sculpture, and installation, Luong examines narratives of survival and the enduring social and environmental impacts of historical events.

Curated by Emily Zimmerman, Director of Exhibitions at the Arthur Ross Gallery, this exhibition marks the debut of the MFA Thesis Exhibition at the Arthur Ross Gallery.

We’re excited to present a studio visit with Lex Marie in Washington, DC!

Lex will walk guests through the large-scale works she has created over the past two years at her current studio before transitioning out in July. She will share her process, the unconventional materials she often incorporates, and how they help tell stories about Black childhood, motherhood, and social justice. Her work is heavily inspired by personal experiences, community narratives, and the resilience of marginalized voices.

Visitors can expect a behind-the-scenes look at how her sculptures and mixed media works come together, and insight into the themes that ground her practice. She will also preview a few upcoming projects that continue to explore these narratives in new ways.

Lex Marie (b. 1992: Prince Georges County, MD) is a multidisciplinary artist who creates paintings, sculptures and installations that reflect her individual experiences yet encompasses the experiences of many in the African diaspora. Marie’s artistic practice is as an exploration of the weighty realities experienced by many African American children and children of color. Her work is a testament to the profound impact of adultification biases, food insecurity, and the systemic challenges entrenched in American school systems, healthcare systems, in the home and out in the world. Through a fusion of everyday materials, often reclaimed and repurposed, Marie offers a tangible manifestation of the intangible struggles faced by these young minds, compelling viewers to confront the profound significance inherent in the seemingly ordinary.

Marie holds a BA in studio art with a concentration in painting from the University of Maryland, College Park. Marie’s most recent solo exhibition “LetThem Kids Be Kids” opened at the Museum of Contemporary Art Arlington (2022). Marie’s work has been curated into group exhibitions including REVISIT/REIMAGINE (Banneker-Douglas Museum, 2024), In Tender Peaks, Grace Unfolds (Mitochondria Gallery, 2024), A Color Story (Cierra Britton Gallery, 2024), and Stories From My Childhood (Northern Illinois University Art Museum, 2022). Marie received the Washingtinton Studio Award from S&R Evermay in 2023 and currently works in Washington, DC

New York, NY | After Hours Reception and Tour of "Amy Sherald: American Sublime" at the Whitney Museum
2025-06-04 18:15 - 20:30 | Whitney Museum of American Art, 99 Gansevoort Street, New York, NY, 10014, United States
ArtTable invites you to a special evening at the Whitney Museum of American Art!

Join us for an after hours reception in the Whitney’s Trustee Room, which features floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Hudson and the High Line. The reception will include wine and light bites.

After the reception, join us for a guided tour of Amy Sherald: American Sublime and Louise Nevelson’s Collection View.

Amy Sherald is a storyteller. She creates precisely crafted narratives of American life, selecting, styling, and photographing her sitters as the foundation for her nuanced paintings. Thus, while Sherald (b. 1973; Columbus, Georgia) bases her works on specific people, they are more than traditional portraits. They center everyday Black Americans, compelling in their individuality and extraordinary in their ordinariness, inviting viewers to step into Sherald’s imagined worlds. In this exhibition, paintings of such ordinary Americans join her iconic portraits of First Lady Michelle Obama and, heartbreakingly, Breonna Taylor, to produce a resonant ode to the multiplicity and complexity of American identity.

Louis Nevelson had a long and deep relationship with the Whitney Museum, which organized her first retrospective in 1967. Today the Museum is one of the largest repositories of her work, with over ninety sculptures, drawings, and prints in the collection, many of them gifts of the artist. The works gathered in this exhibition, which span four decades, offer a special opportunity to shine a light on this self-proclaimed “architect of shadows.”

Venice, CA | MeetAT at L.A. Louver
2025-06-12 13:30 - 15:00 | L.A.Louver, 45 N Venice Blvd, Venice, CA, 90291, United States
From the L.A. Louver Celebrates 50 Years exhibition from February 15 – June 14, 2025.

You’re invited to a Venice, CA. MeetAT networking event on June 12, graciously hosted by Elizabeth East, Director of L.A. Louver. Join us for an evening of light refreshments and engaging conversations with fellow ArtTable members and new connections.

About L.A. Louver:L.A. Louver was established in 1975 with the mission to champion L.A. artists within an international program. In the fifty years that followed, the gallery’s dynamic program has presented more than 660 exhibitions over the course of what has been the most significant period of creative growth in Southern California history.

L.A. Louver Celebrates 50 YearsL.A. Louver is proud to celebrate their 50th anniversary with an exhibition surveying the gallery’s history, from its formation in 1975 to now. They are delighted to commemorate this achievement with a presentation in all spaces of the gallery, which remains on the same block as the original 1970s location. The exhibition is a portrait of L.A. Louver, enriched and informed by history as much as the landscape of today. Though harkening back to key moments from the past, the presentation offers points of nonlinear connection that elucidate the complex truth of an identity shaped by time, place, and people. Furthermore, it is a tribute to the forces and memories that have shaped the gallery – the Bohemian art haven that was 1970s Venice Beach; the artists, staff, and community that have kept the program vibrant and dynamic; the bespoke building designed by Frederick Fisher & Partners that has held hundreds of exhibitions and events; and the artworks that have traveled the world.

East of the Pacific: Making Histories of Asian American Art explores the continuing artistic impact of the migration of people across the Pacific Ocean and their indispensable role in shaping American art and culture. The exhibition examines how the repositioning of America from west of the Atlantic to east of the Pacific reorients our perception of American art and its significant contributors.

Organized by and drawn from the collection of the Cantor Arts Center at Stanford University, East of the Pacific features artworks by over 32 Asian American artists that span from the mid-19th century through the present day, including ceramics, drawings, paintings, photographs, and prints. The exhibition is divided into six thematic sections, which reveal vital moments in Asian American history and the multifaceted contributions of Asian descendants to American art. These sections include Points of Contact, The East West Art Society, Visions of Chinatown, After Executive Order 9066, Histories of Abstraction, and Revisiting Other Sources: An American Essay.

ArtTable Tours | Lisbon and Porto
2025-06-13 00:00 - 2025-06-21 23:59
Explore the vibrant art scenes of Lisbon and Porto, two cities where tradition meets contemporary innovation. This carefully curated tour offers an insider’s view into the art, culture, and architecture of Portugal, with exclusive visits to museums, galleries, and private collections, all while enjoying the country’s rich culinary traditions and wine culture. Join us for an unforgettable exploration of these cultural gems!

Highlights of the Itinerary

Lisbon

Our journey begins in Lisbon, a city that effortlessly blends old-world charm with modern cultural influence. Over three days, we’ll visit the iconic Museu Nacional de Azulejo, a remarkable museum housed in the former Convento Madre de Deus, and the Museu Calouste Gulbenkian, which is home to the exceptional private art collection of Calouste Gulbenkian, a wealthy Armenian collector known for his unerring eye and wide-ranging taste. We’ll also tour the Museu de Arte, Arquitetura e Tecnologia and Museu de Arte Contemporânea, experiencing the city’s dynamic contemporary art scene. Each day will offer time to savor Lisbon’s celebrated cuisine in local restaurants and cafés, and we will stay at the Lapa Palace, built in the 18th century and later renovated into a luxury hotel that is centrally located and offers unparalleled views of the city’s historic quarter.

Porto

Next, we travel to Porto, Portugal’s second-largest city, renowned for its art and wine culture. We will visit the Fundação de Serralves, a prominent cultural institution in Porto whose mission is to promote contemporary art and its associated disciplines. We’ll enjoy a river cruise along the Douro River, offering a unique view of the picturesque valley and its famed vineyards. We will also visit the Museu Nacional de Soares dos Reis, Portugal’s first designated national museum, founded in 1833 to showcase works of art from dissolved monasteries and convents, including a valuable collection of paintings, glass, ceramics, and jewelry. We conclude our tour with a tasting and farewell dinner at the historic Graham’s Port Lodge, where we’ll explore its impressive collection of port wine barrels and enjoy a selection of port tastings paired with local cuisine.

New York, NY | Artist Talk and Studio Visit with Francine Tint
2025-06-16 10:00 - 11:00 | Francine Tint’s Studio, Address Provided Upon Registration, New York, New York, 10012
Join ArtTable on June 16th for a studio visit with Francine Tint!

Francine Tint’s practice is rooted in the exploration of color as a means of capturing and embodying light. Tint’s approach emerged within painterly abstraction, bridging Color Field influences with the dynamic gestures of Abstract Expressionism. While grounded in this tradition, she continually expands its boundaries, exploring new forms of expression that challenge conventional abstract frameworks. David Ebony observes that Tint rejects rigid formalism in favor of an intuitive method, balancing energetic movement with moments of stillness. This interplay creates what he describes as a ‘Zen feeling’—a sense of clarity and resolution within complex visual structures. Over five decades, Tint has remained committed to discovery and reinvention. While sharing affinities with peers such as Larry Poons, her synthesis of gesture and color distinguishes her vision. Her work is held in the permanent collections of 30 museums, including the Neuberger Museum of Art, the El Paso Museum of Art, and the Chazen Museum of Art. Tint’s paintings are exhibited across the United States and Europe, further solidifying her influence in the field of contemporary abstraction.

New York, NY | Artist Studio Visit with Josely Carvalho
2025-06-25 17:30 - 18:30 | Josely Carvalho’s Studio, Address will be provided to registrants, New York, New York, 10018
Josely Carvalho (b. 1942, São Paulo, Brazil) is an interdisciplinary artist, poet, and activist whose work spans printmaking, installation, blown glass, public art, and olfactory media. Informed by early memories, including childhood memories of Paraná’s vanishing Araucaria forests, her practice uses personal experience to explore ecological, political, and social themes. Josely Carvalho classifies her work as “Diaries” “Books” and “Chapters”. By approaching a broad range of materials as texts, Carvalho unravels narrative expectations to address issues of feminism, indigenous rights, and shelter in her multisensory and empathetic oeuvre.

Carvalho studied art and architecture in St. Louis, Missouri, before relocating to New York City in the 1970s, where she became a pivotal figure in the city’s activist and Latin American artist communities. She was a leading member of Artist’s Call Against U.S. Intervention in Central America. She founded The Silk Screen Project at St. Mark’s Church in the Bowery, amplifying marginalized voices through collective creative production. In recent years, Carvalho has emerged as a pioneer in the field of olfactory art through her ongoing Diary of Smells series, culminating in works like Glass Ceiling: Resilience (2018), at at the Museum of Contemporary Art in São Paulo, for which she received the International Art and Olfaction Sadakichi Award in 2019.

Her work has been exhibited widely across the Americas, including exhibitions at the Museu Nacional de Belas Artes (Rio de Janeiro), the Hammer Museum (Los Angeles), the Museum of Contemporary Art (São Paulo), and the Brooklyn Museum’s landmark exhibition Radical Women: Latin American Art, 1960–1985. Carvalho’s practice has been recognized with major awards from the Creative Capital Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, and the National Endowment for the Arts. In 2022, she became the first Brazilian artist to receive the Lee Krasner Award for Lifetime Achievement from the Pollock-Krasner Foundation. This distinction honors her decades-long contributions to contemporary art and social consciousness.
