12. “Valeri Larko: End Game” at Lyons Wier Gallery
Larko’s upcoming solo show features landscapes she painted on location at an abandoned golf center in the North Bronx. When she painted her first work there in fall 2013, she pushed her painting gear under the fence and squeezed through a break in the locked gate. She was  only able to complete one small work before a detective caught her in the act of trespassing and “strongly suggested that she not return.” However, she did return repeatedly and has captured in detail the once vibrant family entertainment center that now contains crumbling old structures and which nature is gradually reclaiming.

He categorizes his own work, as well as that of Roy Dowell, as “Organized Organic,” having a sort of visual grammar. Lennon, Weinberg, juxtaposes their work, teasing out underlying similarities despite the simplicity of Kalina’s two-toned silhouetted canvases compared to Dowell’s detailed paintings, which combine a myriad of visual influences, from collage to Latin American decorative motifs.
