A Rare Presentation of Leonora Carrington’s Surrealist Sculptures Have Landed in New York

A new exhibition at New York's L'Espace Gallery, titled "Shape of Dreams," presents a rare collection of Leonora Carrington's surrealist bronze sculptures, intricate jewelry, and an interactive tarot booth. Carrington, best known as a painter and novelist, created these sculptures late in life, often with the help of her sons, as her eyesight and arthritis made painting difficult. The show highlights works like "The Palmist" (2011) and other hybrid, mythological figures that extend her imaginative universe into three dimensions.

Shoot the Shit With Jack Kerouac

An exhibition at the Grolier Club in New York City, titled "Running Through Heaven: Visions of Jack Kerouac," presents over 60 pieces of ephemera and unpublished correspondence from the Beat Generation icon's life. Curated by antiquarian collector Jacob Loewentheil, the show includes first editions, a Buddhist mala, a tobacco pouch, and a signed 1964 portrait of Kerouac, organized thematically around religion, jazz, and family. The exhibition runs through May 16 and offers an intimate look at the man behind the myth.
