Paintings: 1995-2025

<p>James Fuentes Gallery is pleased to present Becky Howland, Paintings: 1995-2025 in New York. Active since the late 1970s, Howland is widely recognized for her works expressing a deep ecological concern in the presence of energy extraction and distribution, political power, and the environmental consequence of contemporary life. Celebrated for the highly direct and inventive nature of her art making, Howland is also a key figure in experimental artist collectives still active today in New York City, notably as a member of Colab (Collaborative Projects Inc, formed 1977) and for her principal role in the landmark "Real Estate Show," which established ABC No Rio in 1980. Against the backdrop of such activities as well as her better-known large-scale sculptural works, this exhibition presents a focused survey of her paintings, many of which have never previously been exhibited.</p>
