SOLO EXHIBIT: FRANCINE TINT
Francine Tint has been a working artist since the early Seventies. Tint's artistic career began as a successful costume designer and fashion stylist — working for David Bowie, Ridley Scott, and Entertainment and Sports Programming Network (ESPN), among others. After enduring a series of losses, Tint’s life took on a different meaning with dedication solely to painting. Impediments impede, but they can also inspire. Working as a stylist by day, and a painter by night, Tint developed her own method of large-scale, color-based painting.
Tint's work continues to be shown widely, both nationally and internationally. Her tireless trajectory of artistic experimentation has made her work sought after by both private collectors and institutions. Tint is held in the permanent collection of over 28 museums, including The Neuberger Museum of Art, The Heckscher Museum of Art, The Portland Museum of Art (among the Clement Greenberg Collection), and The Krannert Art Museum, to name a few. Francine Tint continues to paint today and conducts abstract painting workshops at The Art Students League of New York.
From the NYT article: ‘...In February, Upsilon’s London outpost held a show of Tint’s work; a forthcoming short film about her, “Panoramic View,” by the filmmaker Pola Rapaport, will be released later this spring.
Then there is her show at 68 Prince Street, a new gallery in Kingston, N.Y., from April 26 to June 26.
“I was looking for an artist that really was going to make a statement for our inaugural show,” said the gallery’s curator, Alan Goolman. Tint came to mind. “This woman is having her time right this very minute.”

andrea burgay
april 26 - june 8, 2025
Andrea Burgay is a visual artist from Syracuse, NY, currently living and working in Brooklyn, NY. In her work, transformative processes revive and reconstruct castoff objects and materials through the lens of memory, emotion, and imagination. By repeatedly adding and removing layers of materials — destroying and reassembling — her process mirrors the natural cycles of creation, decay, and rebirth. The resulting works bear the markings of these visceral transformations, visually manifesting the passage of time. They encompass both the inevitable pain of loss and the potential for growth and renewal.
Maureen Cummins

For the past 35 years, Maureen Cummins has been cranking presses from California to the Eastern Arctic and published over 40 limited-edition artist books. A graduate of Cooper Union, Cummins is known for her investigations into hidden histories. She is the recipient of over a dozen grants and funded residencies, including a NYSCA grant, a Pollock Krasner award, and a Karmiole fellowship (to research the history of radical presses at UCLA.) She has also been a community art activist, collaborating with a variety of groups, from war refugees to suicide survivors, to tell their stories. Cummins recently founded ABS (Artist / Book / Studio), a series of monthly studio visits in the Hudson Valley. She currently lives and works in Woodstock, NY.
