Art House Productions in Jersey City, NJ, presents "Playing Favorites," a solo exhibition by artist Bryant Small, curated by Andrea McKenna. The show runs from May 2 to May 31, 2026, at the Art House Gallery, featuring a selection of Small's most cherished works, many never publicly exhibited before. The exhibition includes an opening reception on May 2 and an artist talk on April 17, with all artwork available for purchase in person and online.
This exhibition matters because it offers an intimate look into an artist's personal creative process, highlighting works that hold deep emotional and material significance rather than presenting a standard retrospective. By sharing these favorites, Small invites viewers into the private logic and attachments that shape his practice, emphasizing the human side of art-making. The show also underscores Art House Productions' role in fostering local visual arts as it celebrates its 25th anniversary.
