Whitney Oldenburg: hardening the braces opens this Friday, April 17, 6–8pm
In this new body of work, Oldenburg examines material accumulation as a response to uncertainty. Sculptures and drawings reflect on cycles of consumption, preservation, and the tension between stability and collapse.

Large charcoal drawings by Whitney Oldenburg line the gallery walls, created alongside the freestanding sculptures. Together, the works reflect on permanence and impermanence, and on the human instinct to 'hold on to'.
hardening the braces, on view through June 6, examines the human psychology of accumulation and attachments to objects in the face of collapse and uncertainty.

@artstigator reviewed Leslie Smith III: Gentle Thoughts in his latest post for Art & Ponder on Substack. Though Smith's exhibition was on view from October to December 2025, Otero shared his review under a "curated theme" focused on art made with unconventional processes, or that subverts how a particular medium or space is traditionally used.
Otero calls Smith's work "definitive" in that his paintings "exhibit an inherent passion for painting and its unlimited potential."

Many thanks to Hall, Felicia, and the entire Less Than Half team for hosting their May Mixer at CHART last week. We were happy to welcome a community dedicated to advocating for women in the arts, and to share the evening together for Whitney Oldenburg’s exhibition, hardening the braces.
We look forward to continuing the conversation.
