I had the privilege to experience the opening of the FRIDMAN Gallery located on Main Street Beacon, May 1st, and we've been back several times to see this awesome ​inaugural exhibit. You should follow suit!
Founded in 2013, Fridman Gallery represents a roster of artists working across disciplines, from painting and sculpture to performance, video and sound art. The current show in Beacon features artists:
Nanette Carter, Athena LaTocha, Wura-Natasha Ogunji
Land Escape
May 1 – June 27, 2021
475 MAIN STREET, BEACON NY
My daughter Erin, and I got to meet and speak with Iliya Fridman, Founder & Karlyn Benson, Director (Beacon) and had a special treat to speak and ask questions and learn first hand, about her art; Artist "Wura-Natasha Ogunji": "My drawings and stitchings on tracing paper, videos and public performances are deeply inspired by interactions that occur in the city of Lagos, Nigeria​". "My performances explore the presence of women in public space, often at the intersection of labor, leisure, freedom and frivolity​".​
 
 It was such a pleasure meeting the llIya Fridman, and the Artist "Wura-Natasha Ogunji":
 come see this wonderful art!
 
On display till June 27th!
