Contemporary Art: What`s New @ New York Studio School

(Drivebycuriosity) - New York is famous for finance & business but the metropolis is also a center of science & art. There are a lot of prestigious universities & other schools. The New York Studio School of Drawing, Painting & Sculpture belongs to them (nyss). According to their website the school "is committed to giving a significant education to the aspiring artist that can last a lifetime".

My wife and I had the luck to see their 2019 MFA Thesis exhibition on 8 West 8th Street, New York. The show, which runs through May 29, 2019, is open for the public and highly recommended.   I got the impression that many of them were influenced by German expressionism (1920-30) and the Californian Expressionism, the "Bay Area Figurative Movement", and painters like Richard Diebenkorn & Elmer Bischoff  (wikipedia).

I display  my favorites of the exhibition here, a very subjective selection as usual - this blog reflects my taste of course - and I apologize to those who didn´t find a place in this post.
