Jesse Ferdinand at Andrew Edlin Gallery

This inaugural group exhibition at Andrew Edlin Gallery's new home in Tribeca features a broad range of artists, including some who have never, or rarely shown in New York, who offer multiple of ways of seeing through the current climate. Some call out inequities and abuses of power, others turn to joy to counteract fear. All make work with an intensity that affirms the power and necessity of making and sharing their art when creative uplift is most needed.
