THE HUDSON REVIEW
At the Galleries
OCTOBER 2023
“Beach,” at both of Nino Mier’s galleries, in Soho and Tribeca, curated by Danny Moynihan, may have been the largest and most wide ranging of the summer group shows. An effort to “explore all aspects of the shoreline,” from place of utility and danger, to desirable, albeit fragile zone for leisure, the show assembled works by about ninety artists, beginning with Eugène Delacroix and continuing to such current practitioners as Katherine Bradford, Janice Nowinski, and Kyle Staver, plus a gang of younger people, by way of such modern masters as Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, and George Grosz, with detours to include Janice Biala, Larry Rivers, Jane Freilicher, Joe Brainard, and Tom Wesselmann, among many others.
