Lisa Corinne Davis: You Are Here? @ Miles McEnery Gallery, 525 West 22nd Street, New York, N.Y.

Lisa Corinne Davis is presenting her first solo exhibition with Miles McEnery Gallery after joining the gallery in June 2022. Her graphic paintings are centered around color, pattern, and geometry, but the artist rejects the label of abstraction and references to maps, instead encouraging viewers to approach the workd with an open mind. In the exhibition catalogue that accompanies the show, scholar and curator Anita N. Bateman wrote: "Her works are about bodies (the experiences of bodies, of subjects) as much as they are about contexts." New York-based Davis is co-director of the MFA program at Hunter College.
