Pittsburgh-born artist Emil Lukas brings a beautiful exhibition of paintings to Sperone Westwater. While Lukas' rigorous, almost mathematical "Thread" compositions present a controlled vision, his "Larvae" paintings provide a more organic, chance-driven counterpoint. The works are united, however, in their demanding a second look, inviting the viewer to think not just about beauty but also about the process of making. The show, which opened January 9th, runs though February 22nd.
