Tax Talk

There is a lot of uncertainty in the air as we begin this new year. The recent changes to the Tax Code have generated rumors that homes prices will be significantly devalued during 2018. These rumors are purposefully provocative and not based in proper context. There will be movement, but more like ripples than waves. Historically, real estate in NYC responds more to job growth, the stock market, bonuses, and corporate profits than to tax changes.... and all indicators for those indexes are excellent for 2018.

Opening Reception: Just Being Polite

"In our current cultural mood, bordering on oppressive politeness, the statement "just being polite" is a defensive exchange made between people when one’s politeness is rejected. Politeness has become a veneer to cover any and everything sensitive, damaged, uncertain, confused, unequal, oppressed, violent, sexual, personal, natural, primitive, uncontrollable, or conflicted. The artists in this exhibition are done “trying to be polite,” communicating instead with honest, complex emotions about difficult states and situations with agency, energy and without apology."
