303 Gallery inaugurates its new 24th Street space with an exhibition by Rodney Graham. Graham's humorous light boxes rely on themes from the modern era reimagined with the artist the central character. The seemingly light-hearted images are part of a complex narrative that incorporates references to philosophy and literature. The vibrant color and large format functions as a way to confound rather than explain the artist's intent. On view through June 15th 2013 at 303 Gallery, 507 West 24th Street, New York.

Artists JR and Jose Parla take their recent collaboration The Wrinkles of the City from the streets to Bryce Wolkowitz's 24th Street gallery. In 2012, both men traveled to Cuba to interview residents and create works of art that tell stories accesible to the public. JR's sincere and honest black and white portraits capture each sitter's personality while Parla's narrative of Cuba reads through shape, color and form. On view through July 12th 2013 at Bryce Wolkowitz, 505 West 24th Street, New York. Photo and text Juliana Balestin
Ugo Rondinone's new show with Gladstone Gallery showcases the artist's continued use of unexpected materials in new formats. For soul, Rondinone offers untreated, rough stone blocks stacked into the shapes of humans. Playing with repetition and scale, the artist creates a space for contemplation and shifts the mood of the gallery from light and airy towards somber and self-reflective. On view through July 3rd 2013 at Gladstone Gallery, 530 West 21st Street, New York. Photo and text Juliana Balestin
