dana james ink moon hollis taggart 2680938

New York-based artist Dana James presents her third solo show with Hollis Taggart, titled “Ink Moon,” at the gallery’s Lower East Side location. The exhibition marks a significant shift in her practice, moving from her signature soft pastels and feminine sensibility toward bolder, more gestural works featuring near-black hues, intense primary colors, and expressive mark-making. James created the new body of work while navigating an advancing pregnancy, which she says pushed her work in a more intense direction rather than the expected softer style.

Lord of the Flies: How This Artist Enlists an Army of Tiny Collaborators

Los Angeles artist John Knuth uses flies as collaborators to create paintings, with over one million insects contributing to his current exhibition 'The Hot Garden' at Hollis Taggart Downtown in New York. Inspired by flyspecks he noticed on a windowsill in 2005, Knuth orders fly larvae by the thousands, letting them hatch on canvases where their regurgitation deposits pigment. The show features works priced between $700 and $20,000, and a custom enclosure at the gallery allowed visitors to see the flies working live during the opening. Knuth's fly paintings gained viral attention in 2013 after a video by the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art received over 100,000 views, helping launch his career.

Hollis Taggart to open gallery on New York’s Lower East Side for emerging artists

New York dealer Hollis Taggart is opening a second gallery location on the Lower East Side, named Hollis Taggart Downtown, dedicated to emerging and mid-career contemporary artists. The inaugural exhibition, "Boundless," opens May 17 and features ten artists including Osamu Kobayashi, Katherine Boxall, Kelly Worman, and Joanne Greenbaum. The space, at 109 Norfolk Street, is a partnership with longtime employees Paul Efstathiou and Eleanor Flatow. The move comes as the gallery nearly doubled its Chelsea space in 2023, despite a market downturn.
