299 Grand Street (between Allen and Eldridge)
New York, NY

MARC STRAUS is pleased to announce an exhibition of new works by German artist Birgit Brenner. This will be the artist's first solo exhibition in the US and will inaugurate the gallery's new space at 299 Grand Street (between Allen and Eldridge).

For this, her first solo show in the U.S., Brenner has expanded her visual language with works not easily classified as painting, sculpture, or drawing. While structurally mining some Beuysian territory, Brenner's work is highly personal, concerned with social issues as loneliness, isolation, and aging. Some works evolve almost cinematically based on stories written by the artist.

MARC STRAUS is pleased to announce an exhibition of new paintings by Croatian artist Zlatan Vehabovic. This will be the artist's first solo exhibition in the US and will inaugurate the gallery's new space at 299 Grand Street (between Allen and Eldridge).
