From Friday, April 7, 2023, through Saturday, April 29, 2023, the R Gallery at Arlene’s presents Ken Rutsky: Resilient Region. This solo exhibition features a series of oil paintings that spotlight the avenues and architecture of New York’s Capital Region. It focuses on the well-traveled but little-noticed corridors used by daily commuters and locals running errands. Taking places in which people live and carry out their daily lives causes us to stop and admire their unique beauty. Reimagining them to show us what makes the Capital Region special and why we call it home.
The architecture of a city reflects the character of the people who dwell within it. As one who drives the streets of New York’s Capital Region daily in the course of his job, Rutsky believes you can most vividly see the character of the tri-cities in places that aren’t necessarily featured on tourist ads and travel blogs: the houses, apartments, and alleys where people live work and play. Here, the buildings may show their age, but they stand resilient, diverse, and with silent pride. These oft-trod but little-noticed spaces stand as a reflection and metaphor of the resilient, diverse, and proud population of the Capital Region, the force pushing some of the nation’s oldest communities to the forefront of culture and technology.
Ken Rutsky: Resilient Region will be on view at R Gallery at Arlene’s, 57 Fuller Rd Albany NY 12205, starting Friday, April 7, 2023, and will run through Saturday, April 29, 2023. There will be an Artist Reception on Friday, April 7th, from 4:30 to 5:30om. The gallery is open Monday through Friday from 10 am to 5 pm and Saturday from 10 am to 5 pm.
