About ARTLAB78

By -

ARTLAB78 is a new experimental exhibition space in NYC where invited artists are given the opportunity to show their work in an intimate setting to a selected audience composed of clients, critics, journalists, designer, and friends. ARTLAB78 will be 
  • a gallery space, as the work is for sale
  • a meeting place for the artist and audience, and
  • a center for dialogue. 
It will also serve as a short-term residence for an artist, if the artist is not living in New York City.  ARTLAB78 draws its inspiration from 
  • Alfred Stieglitz's galleries: 291, "Intimate Gallery, and " An American Place; 
  • Roy Neuberger and patrons like him who decided to help living artists; and 
  • Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney who trusted her own taste and provided exhibition opportunities for artists. 
It is located within a landmark Beaux Arts building designed by Henry Atterbury Smith that opened in 1909 as the Shively Sanitary Tenements, under the sponsorship of Mrs. William K. Vanderbilt.Laurence and Franck Neron-Bancel curate all exhibitions. Contact information:   Laurenceneronbancel@gmail.com

meet the artist Liam Roberts

By -
Liam Roberts’ fertile imagination transmutes images into abstract-like compositions of strik- ing energy and brushwork. He says that he is not a maker of pictures, but a maker of paintings, and that the viewer completes the work, not simply by looking but by the labour of seeing. Shakespeare, as usual, says it best: “Let every eye negotiate for itself . . .” Roberts’ mediums are acrylic, gouache, collage and ink. This show comprises recent and earlier works. Liam has exhibited in New York, London, Paris, Palm Springs, Geneva and Nicosia. He is represented in Dublin by Peppercanister Gallery.   www.liamroberts.com  /  roberts l@copper.ne
