Exhibition Dates: October 9 - December 11, 2021

this, that, and the other Sandler Hudson Gallery is pleased to announce the latest body of work from artist mario petrirena entitled this, that, and the other. Though most of the work in this exhibition was produced during Covid, the overarching themes of duality, division, conflict, and otherness can be traced back through petrirena’s entire career. His objective here is to create a visual language of our shared humanity: namely by honing in on the various complexities in life. For petrirena, the twists and turns life takes and the way we are pushed and pulled in many directions is precisely what connects all of us.

Naturally, given his focus on conflict and division, there is a level of darkness. This, he hopes is tempered by the work’s physical beauty. Not outside the scope of his primary theme, humanity, is his hand series: an homage to Nellie Mae Rowe, an artist who petrirena both admires and is deeply inspired by.
