Beyond: Beyond/In Western New York

This picture is by Santo Domingo artist Lou Pimente, called "Homeless Beta," part of the RedFISH Art Studio exhibition "Gimme Shelter," on view starting October 19.

There’s much more happening this season in galleries than the Beyond/In exhibition. Almost all area galleries have a significant show or series planned from now until end of the year. In November the Albright-Knox will house The Panza Collection: An Experience of Color and Light, an exhibition from the collection of the Count Giuseppe Panza di Biumo, a doctor and octogenarian whose philosophical interest in visual elements has led to a remarkable body of work. The Burchfield-Penney will continue its Life in the Arts series with the work of Gloria Banning on display during the months of September and October, followed by A Life in the Arts: Shawn Greenberg in November and December. RedFISH Art Studio will host an international traveling exhibition and benefit for the world’s homeless with the October opening of Gimme Shelter: A Benefit For Global Homelessness. Rochester’s George Eastman House is always worth the trip and will reward those who make it with two unusual exhibits opening in mid-September: Lucha Libre! Masked Mexican Wrestlers depicts the ritualistic Mexican free-form sport with a series of photographs from 1940 to the present, and Male and Female: Gender Performed in Photographs, an exhibition from the Eastman House collection.
