Showing art results: From 26 to 36
(JERSEY CITY, NJ) -- Art House Productions presents Playing Favorites, curated by Andrea McKenna, on view at the Art House Gallery from Saturday, May 2nd through Sunday, May 31st, 2026. This is an intimate and revelatory solo exhibition by Bryant Small. Bringing together a selection of the artist's most cherished works—many of which have never been exhibited publicly—this presentation offers a rare glimpse into the personal logic and emotional resonance that shape Small's evolving practice.
The first thing you'll see upon entering the gallery at Deep Space (77 Cornelison St.) is the shadow-outline of a woman's leg. There it is, on a chartreuse background, sticking straight up in the air with a curvaceous bare foot inches from the ceiling. That's all of the subject of "Lemon Lime Toe of God" that the oil painter Delilah Ray Miske is willing to show us. The rest of the body, she implies, is splayed out on a bed. We know it's summer because the window is closed and the air conditioner is plugged in. There's a pretty good chance that the possessor of the leg is undressed. In one hand, she holds a cellphone, and she might be broadcasting something. On the wall, a small whip-like broomstick hangs. It could be the ride of a tiny witch. It could be the professional tool of a dominatrix.
