Double Crescent: Art From Istanbul And New Orleans

C24 Gallery's first exhibition, Double Crescent: Art From Istanbul And New Orleans, was curated by Dan Cameron, one-time director of the Istanbul Biennial and former senior curator of the New Museum. According to Cameron, the show's goal was to “examine the art of two great port cities that have channeled European culture into unexpected colors and shapes.” The show featured the work of New Orleans art collective Generic Art Solutions and Turkish artists Hale Tenger and Ali Kazma.

Campaign

In January 2012 C24 Gallery presented their group show Campaign curated by Aldrich Contemporary Art Museum curator and former P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center / Museum of Modern Art curator Amy Smith-Stewart. Featuring the work of 27 artists including Jen DeNike, Kate Gilmore, K8 Hardy, Adam Helms, Aleksandra Mir, and Hank Willis Thomas, the exhibition not only showed how women's bodies have been distorted and exploited for commercial purposes but also used repurposed imagery from fashion, advertising, entertainment and tabloid culture to create alternative meanings, thereby revealing the hidden messages latent beneath digitally altered beings. In Artforum critic Johanna Fateman highlighted Kathe Burkhart's Liz Taylor paintings as "a perverse homage to misogynist projection. In Beaver: From the Liz Taylor Series, a deck of strip-poker playing cards silhouette the flatly painted Hollywood icon, and a shaggy length of fake fur, affixed as Taylor’s stole, underscores the obscenity of the red text that bisects the canvas like a protest sign: BEAVER."

Extravagant Features

On view from May 7 to June 22, 2013 was Extravagant Features a group show curated by Clarissa Dalrymple which featured work from a lineup of artists that included Rob Wynne, Alfred Leslie, Rohan Wealleans, Jane Corrigan, Jane Kaplowitz and Magic Flying Carpets of The Berber Kingdom of Morocco. Known for her talent for recognizing artists at various stages of their careers, Dalrymple used her C24 Gallery group show to feature work that expressed an exaggerated depiction of the human figure.

How Many Miles To Babylon

On view from December 17, 2015 was How Many Miles to Babylon: Recent Paintings from Los Angeles and New York, a group exhibition curated by Peter Frank. The exhibition includes the work of Chris de Boschnek, Fatemeh Burnes, Marc Dennis, Jedd Garet, F.Scott Hess, Heather Gwen Martin, Geraldine Neuwirth, and Lezley Saar.

How Many Miles to Babylon… was the inaugural exhibition in C24 Gallery’s brand new ground floor gallery space. Hosted in a stunning newly constructed building on West 24th Street in the heart of the Chelsea art scene, the multilevel gallery boasts 5,000 square feet with an atrium rising twenty feet and adorned with a skylight.
