Antonio Romero’s Paintings Are Reflections of the Shadows of Power (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Born in El Salvador, painter Antonio Romero has never had the luxury of political unawareness. “MIRROR,” marks the culmination of a residency at Kates-Ferri Projects in New York, is an immersive, critical diorama featuring pieces from both his ongoing Tropicalia series, begun in 2016, and new figurative works from his Navarone series, begun in 2019. The show presents a new narrative and symbolic climax even as it continues his exploration of power and how it operates in today’s world. Here, Rome
Toronto’s Lassonde Art Trail Reimagines Public Art as Part of a Healthier Urban Ecosystem (opens the original)
Read excerpt
During the opening weekend of the Toronto Biennial of Art, Observer visited the Lassonde Art Trail (LAT) by stretching a morning run into a longer, more artful route.

And this growing tension between anthropogenic and natural environments has continued to produce disturbances in human behavior and the psyc
Raul De Lara’s Sculptures Ask What Separates Raw Material, Medium and Meaning (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The earliest forms of human creation transformed natural elements into objects endowed with symbolic meaning. Today, some artists still use ancient modes of production like woodcarving to consider the relationship between human making and nature. Mexican-born, Queens-based artist Raul De Lara is one of them, having chosen wood as his medium and carving as his practice early on. His sculptures intentionally inhabit the fluid space between furniture, sculpture and architecture, with wood serving a
