William Steiger "Lucky" at Margaret Thatcher Projects

William Steiger will exhibit new paintings in "Lucky," an exhibition at Margaret Thatcher Projects in New York.

From the gallery:

In LUCKY, William Steiger's ninth solo show at Margaret Thatcher Projects, the artist takes on New York City for the first time. It is a landscape that has long served as inspiration for artists and their work but Steiger pares down the chaos of the city, employing subtle visual cues such as a sliver of a shadow or the curved edge of a building to imply structures. Signage, water towers or bridges, often viewed from below, provide a distinct perspective that rekindles our awe and offers a unique portrait of the city.

"Lucky" is on view from October 24-December 14, 2013, with an opening reception taking place on Thursday, October 24 from 6-8 pm.
