On Stellar Rays will be opening their show Persuasive Percussion, a group show which explores the rhythm and repetition of sound featuring the artists Athanasios Argianas, Julia Bland, Zipora Fried, and Ryan Mrozowski. The show will run in conjunction with the exhibition You Decide to Take a Walk, which will feature the radical and conflicting work of Kegan Monaghan.

Danziger Gallery will be opening a show which will focus on Micael De Feo, also known as “flower guy.” De Feo has been known for his flower works for many years, most of which focus on the injunction between pop-culture and the line between fine art, street art, and cultural appropriation.

The show will be a continuation of Birnbaum’s project to collect obsolete objects and repurpose them into pieces of art.
