MASSIMODECARLO gallery in Hong Kong is presenting "A Grass Roof," the first solo exhibition of American artist Lily Stockman in the city. The show features new oil paintings inspired by the eighth-century Zen poem "Song of the Grass Roof Hermitage" by Shitou Xiqian, exploring themes of interior refuge and infinite expanse through collapsed perspective and dissolved boundaries.
The Museum of Contemporary Art Jacksonville announced a new exhibition featuring Jacksonville-based artist Amer Kobaslija. Titled "Outside Looking In: The Paintings of Amer Kobaslija," the show runs from April 30 to September 20 and traces his artistic journey from early works to the present. It includes series such as Florida Diaries, One Hundred Views of Kesennuma (inspired by Japan's 2011 tsunami), and his ongoing Artist Studios series. Kobaslija, originally from Bosnia and Herzegovina, draws on his experiences as a refugee and life across multiple countries, exploring themes of memory, displacement, and belonging.
