Alice Tippit: Blue State

Small, puzzle-like oil paintings with one-word titles — Fort, Script, Jealous, Numb — make up Alice Tippit's Blue State at Nicelle Beauchene.

ArtClosingPainting

Alice Tippit's compact oil paintings, most under two feet tall, carry terse titles like Fort, Script, Shore, Jealous and Canary, and invite you to decode the picture against the word. It is a quiet, close-looking show in a small Tribeca space, with Lucy Puls's Righting in the project room next door. If you like painting that works like a riddle, give it a slow ten minutes before it closes.

What to expect

Expect a tight hang of small oil-on-canvas paintings made in 2025 and 2026 in the main gallery, with a separate Lucy Puls show in the project space. It is an easy stop on a Tribeca gallery walk.
