Last week, Viridian Artist Rick Mullin won a seat in next year's Casa Dell' Angelo residency in Northern Italy. Run by a family of five out of the village of Lubiara, the residency focuses on mental well-being and the rich natural landscape of Verona, while emphasizing a contribution to the surrounding community. Rick Mullin's artwork focuses on representational and figure paintings in oil and acrylic. Congratulations Rick!

Metropolitan XIII - Queen of Sheba, Vassilina Dikijieva, Oil on Linen , 24” x 18”, 2024
Vassilina Dikidjieva lived and worked for thirteen years in Ethiopia where she traveled throughout much of the country seeing monuments, ancient sites and big market places full of colors, arts, crafts and people. It was these people Vassilina never grew tired of seeing, people from different walks of life that this body of work came to represent in five portraits of women and one composition in six parts that she sees as a song, or a love poem to this part of the world.
Go Fish #9, Arlene Finger, Pastel, Ink, White Chalk, 18” x 24”, 2025
Arlene Finger’s compositions reflect a representational mixed media with juxtaposed themes often in combinations of still life and landscape where line and color have great meaning. Many times linked to what is simply outside the window or in a small room interior with the artist, Finger generates a primal feeling through an artist’s perspective from what is at hand that most would pass by. It is a dynamic quality of, at times, simple shapes with a flowering aesthetic that touches the eye through a combination of charcoal pencil, ink, pastel and white chalk to create simple yet complex drawings.
Eternal City, Nancy Macina, Oil on Canvas, 18” x 24”, 2019
Staten Island, Nancy Macina, Oil on Canvas, 18” x 24”, 2024
Nancy Macina sees the world’s great cities in an ineffable beauty that humankind has created in the search for many of its truths. Through this she tries to capture the genius-loci of a place by strolling the streets and seeing what in combination with what brings the essence, the unseen soul or spirit, so that more of these truths so sought after may surface. Macina feels now, more than ever, we need to preserve the history of these places with ecological consciousness to further progress, as she evokes connection from image to viewer to another viewer through with what has been experienced by them in similar places.
O Lost, and By the Wind Grieved, Ghost Come Back Again (Thomas Wolfe), Kristen Struebing-Beazley, Pinhole camera study of St. Louis Cemetery #3 Set in Moire Taffeta Surrounded with Embroidered Ribbon Quote, 24” x 20”, 2000
Kristen Struebing-Beazley’s Memento Mori, a blackened wall ensemble, exhibits the melancholic atmosphere of daily incremental loss of light in the autumn of our northern hemisphere. The days (and years) dwindle down to a precious few . . . Assembled with a combination of masks, photos, and plaques this stunning work leaves an impression of untold mystery on the viewer, who, without being able to grasp it with an actual hand, feels the ghost of what is so beautiful in what eludes, in what drifts away, in what is possible.
Still Life on a Black Console, Christopher T. Terry, Oil on Canvas , 24” x 32”, 2025
Christopher T. Terry presents six paintings that reflect his continuing interest in representation based on memory and invention as well as conventional direct observation. In some of the work there leans an image very much taken from life but still contains aspects and information only imagined. At other times a painting is almost completely based on remembered details of an interior space worked on several years before the painting was started. The gaps in his memory, or invented details that do not completely mesh with reality help contribute a meditative dream-like quality to the work where the images fulfill a haunting beauty of light and warmth.

Wally Gilbert "Transformations"
September 23rd - October 11th
Opening Reception: Tuesday, September 25th 6-8pm
Closing Reception: Saturday, October 30th 4-6pm
Chelsea, New York: The Viridian Artists gallery is happy to present “Transformations” an exhibition of new works by artist Wally Gilbert. The show opens Tuesday, September 23rd and runs through Saturday, October 11th with an opening reception Thursday, September 25th from 6 to 8pm. A closing reception will be held at the gallery Saturday, October 11th between the hours of 4 and 6pm.
Nobel laureate Wally Gilbert brings a new voice to the images in his solo show “Transformations”. Color is the center point of Gilbert’s artwork, Once again he uses vibrant and, at times, electric tones to transform the commonly viewed into a new wild region of inventive portrayals, pursuing his signature style. The lines and textures of the images combine with the shapes to reveal another world, brought to the forefront for the aesthetic marvel of the unordinary.
The work shown in this show flows with different content through the theme of transformation starting with Gilbert’s initial catch of the image and then his manipulation to bring it to a final effective result. In the piece “Three Differences”, the tops of houses and the sky are presented only slightly changed so that they retain some of their fundamental reality. However, in “Difference #1”, suddenly a variation appears where the shapes of the clouds with enhanced colors bleed over to wash out any depiction of the houses whatsoever, creating a startling modification living as its own unique self. These images then are in contrast with a piece like “Crossing”, an abstraction that starts with the formality of sharp lines and shapes but is given over to the altering brightness of color that carries the viewer to new opportunities of warm reds and black lines operating simultaneously with blue cools in diamonds. So many of the works follow this thread of expertise in craft, illustrated through change, to create a startling, overwhelming, beauty.
In this, his eighth solo show at Viridian, Gilbert brings fresh light to his photographs and his artistic mission. The combinations of digitally sculpted works of realistic objects and landscapes with images of pure abstraction in luminescent color raise this body of work to artistic heights embodying Wally’s masterful techniques in image manipulation with an eye that, in its first layer of the image, can see the possibility of a richness and depth that defies simple notions of what can be mined from what is understood.

Ralph Miller Urban Patina: The Colors of Time
“Cuba Bicitaxi”, photograph, 37.75” x 25.5” framed, 2025
Chelsea, New York: Viridian Artists gallery is proud to present “Urban Patina: The Colors of Time” an exhibition of new works by artist Ralph Miller. The show opens Tuesday, September 2nd and runs through Saturday, September 20th with an opening reception Thursday, September 4th from 6 to 8pm.

“Studio Shadows”, photograph, 37.75” x 25.5” framed, 2025
In Urban Patina: The Colors of Time, artist Ralph Miller invites the viewer into a world often overlooked in daily life. Where erosion becomes elevation, and what has been passed over by passers by becomes a point of focus, and even enlightenment. This collection unearths urban decay, illustrating a rich and layered eye that sees stories found in the worn corners of cities. Through the mixed media of camera lens and paint brush, Miller turns forgotten alleys and crumbling walls into moments of reverence reflecting the artist’s decades-long pursuit of meaning and the unfolding of this meaning in the day-to-day.
View Urban Patina: The Colors of Time on Artsy
Raised in the Caribbean with an education in philosophy, psychology, and fine arts, Miller’s interests in the details of diverse urban lifestyles have taken him to many signature places all over the world. Each wall, each fragment of crumbling concrete that has gone before Miller’s eyes holds stories not just of use and function but of endurance, neglect, ascendancy, and unexpected beauty. Where time is not linear but layered. Where what has come of the past now surfaces from what is worn and broken to become, as an image, an emblem for what through the art is made whole.
“Old Building #3”, photograph, 37.75” x 25.5” framed, 2025
Having been influenced by artists such as Peña-Defilló (“Papo”), Guillo-Pérez, and Armando Cruz, color formed an early foundation for Miller fostering a lifelong embrace of bright blues, sun soaked yellows, vivid greens, and bursting reds. From the vibrant remnants on a graffiti wall in San Sebastian, Spain, to the pitted alleyways of Havana and Mexico City, this series offers a visual meditation on impermanence where Miller finds clarity in chaos, aesthetics in the accidental through the exceptional skill of capturing layers of life and time in the textures left flippantly behind. From sunlight breaking through a ruined roofline, the shadow cast across a peeling poster, or the overspray of red on discarded masking paper, each detail becomes a verse in an ongoing visual poem of perception, change, and resilience.

List of Artists
Viridian Artist Bob Tomlinson; Black Montmartre In The Jazz Age
A street-level guide to a Parisian neighborhood favored by Black expatriates in the 1920s
In Jazz Age Montmartre, African American musicians arrived in response to a demand for American dance rhythms. Hallowed entertainment venues acquired jazz orchestras, and a plethora of clubs sprang up in the narrow streets around the rue Pigalle and the rue Fontaine, creating a jazz-fueled dance culture. On this self-contained island in Paris, far from their racist homeland, these performers established an imperfect utopia. In Black Montmartre in the Jazz Age, Robert Tomlinson guides readers down these streets and into clubs and theatres in an effort to reveal what this unique neighborhood looked like to Black Americans who were forced to search abroad for their American Dream.
Though faced with resistance from some of their white compatriots—namely American media and clubgoers—a relatively benign and tolerant French society allowed Black artists to attain a level of social and economic achievement that was denied to them in America. Black Montmartre in the Jazz Age provides a focused and detailed narrative, undeveloped in previous studies, that depicts the decline of the clannish white “society dancings,” of the rue Caumartin, and the parallel rise of Black owned and managed clubs in Pigalle.
If the colorful, turbulent lives of these Black expatriates seem at times the trivial chatter of gossip columns, the battles they fought and the collaborations they engaged in with white entrepreneurs constitute what Tyler Stovall called the “nation’s conflicted journey into the modern age,” conflicts not without significance for our own time and mirrored by the microcosm of Black Montmartre.
ROBERT TOMLINSON is a Jamaican-American artist and scholar of French literature. He is a professor emeritus in the French and Italian Department at Emory University. Author of more than a dozen peer-reviewed articles in both French and English, he has also written two book, Exiles: a poem with original woodcuts and La Fête Galante: Watteau et Marivaux. He currently lives in Paris.
Look out for Bob’s Book this upcoming year!

Chelsea, NYC: Viridian Artists is pleased to present “New Art Prospects: Artists from Japan Series XII 2025,“じゆうーFreedom” curated by Sai Morikawa. This exhibition will be on view from August 11 to August 23, 2025. An Opening Reception on Thursday August 14, 5:30–7:30pm.
“New Arts Prospect: Artists from Japan Series,” an ongoing art series that quietly forged acultural bridge between Japan and New York City—the global capital of contemporary art—hasentered its twelfth year. The initiative remains steadfast in amplifying the voices of Japanese artists seeking broader international visibility. Its 2025 theme, “Freedom,” is as much a meditation as it is a provocation.
Here, “freedom” is re-imagined not as a fixed ideal, but as a fluid, multifaceted concept—one encompassing creative agency, personal autonomy, and the fragile promise of possibility in an increasingly uncertain world. In a digital age defined by hyper-connectivity, the very tools that enable global discourse have also given rise to fragmentation, misinformation, and ideological isolation. Within this tension, art offers a critical space—one where freedom can be questioned, visualized, and redefined.
The exhibition returns to Viridian Artists Gallery, a site that has long served as more than a mere venue. This marks the seventh iteration of the Japanese artist showcase at the space. Established in the 1960s and run by a consortium of architects, designers, curators, and artists, the gallery has earned its reputation as a sanctuary for progressive thought and experimental practice. Its decades-long history of fostering ambitious and boundary-pushing talent continues to resonate within the wider art community.
In a post-pandemic landscape, the art world has been forced to adapt—and evolve. Virtual exhibitions have become a parallel stage, no longer supplemental but integral. This year’s presentation embraces that duality, combining in-person works with a 3D virtual experience designed to reach audiences both local and global. What results is a hybrid model that speaks to the fluid nature of engagement in our time. Set against a cultural backdrop marked by porous borders, shifting values, and contested meanings, the exhibition resists easy interpretation. It does more than display work—it introduces a conversation. Through distinct visual languages, participating Japanese artists compel viewers to reconsider what it means to be free, in forms that are as visually diverse as they are intellectually charged.
More than an exhibition, this event operates as a platform for international cultural dialogue. It charts the evolving trajectory of Japan’s contemporary art scene while offering space for new talent to emerge. In a city that thrives on the collision of perspectives, “Freedom” arrives not as a statement, but as an open-ended question—one that artists, and viewers, are asked to answer together.
A special thanks to Mr. Terence Accola for his outstanding work on the beautiful gallery display layout.

Chelsea, New York: Viridian Artists gallery is pleased to present our 33rd Annual International Juried Exhibition curated by Jim Kempner of Jim Kempner Fine Art. The exhibition opens Tuesday, July 15 and continues through Saturday, August 9, 2025 with an Opening Reception to be held Thursday, July 17 from 6 to 8pm. We are excited to present these artworks that show a wonderful array of talent, technique, and vision.
Jim Kempner of Jim Kempner Fine Art is unique among gallerists in that he exhibits both contemporary and modern masters, such as Robert Rauschenberg and Helen Frankenthaler as well as mid-career art stars (i.e. Derrick Adams and Cecilly Brown) while also representing over 20 painters, photographers, and sculptors, many of whom are not well known. In his understanding and curation of art he demonstrates that what determines that which is great in art tends to stand with the viewer. Kempner also enjoys spoofing the artworld in his wonderful video series, “The Madness of Art”, and also with his postcards portraying himself as Mona Lisa, Warhol, and a host of other artworld masterpieces.
As always, Viridian makes a concerted effort to expand the opportunities for outstanding artists’ work to be seen and exhibited. In consequence of this, the gallery director, Christopher Heffernan, has also selected artwork from those submitted which will be viewable as the “Director’s Choice” digital presentation. The Viridian Artists gallery believes that it is important to demonstrate that curatorial choices have many different avenues and pathways and can be explored through varying aesthetics.

The Measure of Our Reality at Meer Magazine
The Measure of Our Reality
Things are not always what they seem.
Where does the truth lie?
And in whose reality
do we measure our sense of what is right?
That which we thought was secure, dissolves as we breathe.
There are demons among us.
Unkind. Noisy.
I am shattered. We are scattered.
And the Demons return.
Dreams are unsatisfactory
Echoes of the ancestors
Retelling the nightmares.
It depends on your POV
Or the time of day
Or your time in life
What stories you tell, what version of reality you live.
The pieces in this show
are narrative works, emerging both from
the dreamworld and
the daily muddle.
What we see we wish for
amidst
Recurrent thoughts of running away.
The pieces in this show
are narrative works, and the stories they tell
vary from viewer to viewer.
How you see what you see differs depending on where you stand.
The pieces in this show
reflect the obtuseness and the optimism of living as if
we all have world enough, and time.

Selfreflections/#mirrorselfies
“@lukita #3”, gouache on inkjet photo, 17”x 22” 2024
Chelsea, New York: Viridian Artists gallery is happy to present “Self Reflections/#mirrorselfies”, an exhibition of new works by artist David Fitzgerald. The show opens Tuesday, May 20th and runs through Saturday, June 14th with an opening reception Thursday, May 22nd from 6 to 8pm. A closing reception will be held at the gallery Saturday, June 14th between the hours of 4 and 6pm.
“@gracieabrams”, gouache on inkjet photo, 17”x22” 2024
Self-Reflections/#mirrorselfies is David Fitzgerald's second show at Viridian Gallery. Inspired by the ubiquitous selfie, especially as posted online, Fitzgerald takes selfies of his own, pulls others from Instagram, then paints and draws on the original image, enhancing and subverting it. In part his work refers to the male gaze and how women are viewed by men. But it also highlights how the selfie allows women to take back ownership of the way their images are being used. Many of the women in these selfies are famous--actresses, singers, and others who want clicks and “likes” because it will further their careers. Many of the images are also created by any woman who wants to control her bodily narrative and take over how it’s seen by the world. At its most basic, of course, that's what selfies are: a way of putting yourself on view for an audience, saying this is me, I'm here doing this cool thing, look at me, I'm important!
“self_selfie #3”, gouache on ink jet photo, 17”x22”, 2025
Yet for Fitzgerald, the original selfie is only the beginning. By drawing and painting on the photo, he goes beyond the basic to change an immediate image into something more lasting and more intriguing. It is no longer a mere selfie, posted along with countless others, to be looked at, admired, perhaps lusted over, and then forgotten. His artistic work transforms, allowing the viewer to see the imperfections, the vulnerability, as well as the beauty of the image. Painting with gouache and using a bold palette, he reinvents the selfie’s photographic origin. Born in mundane surroundings like bathrooms or wherever a mirror is available, they become painterly, offering a new range of aesthetic even as the viewer is always aware that this is a person making a depiction of themselves in real time. You may know who this person is, or you may not, and Fitzgerald himself appears within the group, and through this series in the resources of visual art, the selfie has been elevated into a work that outlasts the ten seconds of Instagram fame and is made into something more enduring.

Beatriz Ledesma, Bird's Song Series Book Launch
A series of mixed media drawings over lithographs inspire by a trip to Naples, Italy- a city at the intersection of life and death. I was engulfed in its subterranean and troubled spaces where the dead and the living cohabite, enchanted and taken away from this living existence by encountering breathtaking churches, underground city, catacombs, art, volcanoes, and natural beauty.
