Abreu has spent two decades building one of the most intellectually consistent programs in New York — conceptual photography, systems-minded painting, work that assumes you will read as well as look — and the summer regroup is the year's only chance to see the whole roster at once. Quaytman, Deschenes and Rosenkranz anchoring the same walls makes the argument better than any single solo could. It is free, it is five minutes from the Grand Street train, and it comes down at the end of next week.
What to expect
A cool, quiet Eldridge Street gallery hung sparely, with photography, painting and object-based work given a lot of air. This is a program that rewards slow looking rather than a quick sweep. A printed list at the desk identifies each work — most labels are minimal by design.
Good to know
- Take the B or D to Grand Street, or the F to East Broadway
- Free to enter, no reservation required
- The gallery keeps limited summer hours — check before making a trip
- Combine it with Orchard and Suffolk Street galleries for a compact downtown loop
- Street-level entry
- Best for viewers who like conceptual and photographic work over figurative painting
