arcmanoro niles east hampton lehmann maupin show

Arcmanoro Niles presents his latest paintings, including a rare self-portrait, in the exhibition "When There's Nothing I Can Do: I Go to My Heart" at Lehmann Maupin in Chelsea, on view through August 15. The Washington, D.C. native, known for intensely saturated domestic scenes and portraits in teals, reds, pinks, and oranges, created the works at his East Hampton studio, where he has been based since 2022. The show also serves as a preview for Niles's forthcoming solo exhibition at Guild Hall next summer. In an interview with CULTURED, the artist discusses his studio habits, his love of working alone at night, and his practice of never discarding old works.
