NYC Exhibitions for Celebrating Spring- Most New York galleries close at 6 p.m. Brooklyn-based art writer Vittoria Benzine has dutifully applied that control variable the past few months, recording photons and watching the days get longer by the week. Daylight savings only amplifies what naturally happens this time of year — and after a two week grace period for Benzine’s annual energetic thrashing at the hands of the vernal equinox, she emerged again to see what the sky looked like at 6 p.m. Pretty amazing.
If you want to check it out for yourself while the season’s young, here’s five shows she recommends seeing by the end of the evening. Each comes with a concise review to help decide whether it’s for you. If you need more material, three exhibitions from her NYC roundup earlier this month remain on view.
