Julie Harvey shakes up the art world once again with her first highly anticipated
solo exhibition “COLOR TEMPO”. Looking through the lens of a microscope, Harvey
layer by layer creates an idealized world of effervescent movement and
impossible color. Intrigued by dance, Harvey ’s paintings focus on the
contemporary human figure and how individual gestures reflect and celebrate a
person’s identity. With Harvey ’s outlandish and fearless disposition, this show
will be anything but ordinary. Curated by Laura O’Reilly and Michael Namer.
