Every month we tap our resident art expert David Behringer to seek out and report back to us what’s happening in the modern art world in New York City galleries. He finds the best exhibitions and shows we didn’t even know existed and opens our world up by giving us a bird’s eye view of the artist and their work. If you missed his posts or want to take another look, take a visual dive back into NYC’s art scene to see what he covered in our Unframed column in 2019.
