Celeste Rapone: Some Weather at Marianne Boesky Gallery presents eleven new paintings exploring millennial anxieties, approaching middle age, and political unrest. Flattened, contorted figures navigate domestic spaces, rendered in muted “diet” colors. Drawing on art history—from Ben Shahn to German New Objectivity—Rapone merges daily life with formal reference, capturing both tension and whimsy as her figures brace for uncertainty while finding small moments of play and resilience.
