Ferdinanda Florence and Gwen Manfrin come to Andrea Schwartz Gallery with ‘Threshold’
Andrea Schwartz Gallery is currently presenting a new two-person exhibition, titled “Threshold,” featuring artists Ferdinanda Florence and Gwen Manfrin.
Florence’s work has frequently focused on unfixed, liminal spaces like ambiguous exterior structures. Her new series of paintings departs from that with an emphasis on interior views, specifically doorways, unclaimed spaces and rooms that communicate a sense of loss. Doesn’t that feel like a fitting meditation for art-goers housebound for much of the past year?
Van Gogh s famous works come to life in an immersive tech-meets-art exhibit at SVN West.
