Maybe I'm Doing It Wrong

Added on June 11, 2016 by Mitchell Wright.

106 Green is pleased to present MAYBE I’M DOING IT WRONG, featuring Elizabeth Bonaventura, Allison Evans, Ryan Falkowitz, Stacy Fisher, Justin Q Martin and Sara Greenberger Rafferty. The show is curated by Jon Lutz and will run from June 18th to July 17th, 2016. An opening reception will be held June 18th from 6-8 pm. Gallery hours are Sundays 12-5 pm.
 
MAYBE I’M DOING IT WRONG brings together artists that deal with finding out how their work is useful in the world where when self-awareness and self-doubt exist at the same time. These works can be simultaneously decisive and disjointed; generative and critical. In the attempt to communicate things uncomfortable and unknown, they expose our own goofy, dark, bland, and mysterious human patterns. 
 
Elizabeth Bonaventura was born in Long Island, New York and received a BFA at Moore College of Art, in Philadelphia and an MFA from Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New Jersey. In 2012, she received a NYFA grant in Painting.  She has shown at Schroeder Romero & Shredder Gallery in New York; Kinkead Contemporary, Los Angeles, CA; PS122 Gallery, NY; Gallery at the Educational Alliance, NY; Art in General, NY;  Highwire Gallery, Philadelphia, PA.
