I try to avoid saying a show has "something for everyone" unless it's really, truly the case, but New York-based artist Raúl de Nieves's a window to the see, a spirit star chiming in the wind of wonder… might fit the bill. De Nieves will transport aesthetic traditions of Mexican craft, Catholicism, Tarot, the European art canon, drag performance, and punk music to the Henry—seriously, I'm betting you're into at least one of those things, right? The solo exhibition of paintings, sculptures, and performances by the Mexican-born artist will include one of his signature "stained glass" installations (made with colored acetate and tape), which will imagine a celestial landscape and transform the museum’s largest gallery space into a "container of colored light." The goal? A reflective, meditative journey—anticipate temple-like seating, a kaleidoscopic atmosphere of ever-changing light, and ritualistic performances punctuating the run of the exhibition.

Crocosmic Tarot with Leon Finley:

Take time to slow down, reflect, and listen to the affirming and compassionate messages of the Crocosmic Tarot, a genderless deck which uses abstract imagery to connect with intuition and the body. For one hour each month (February - June) on select Saturdays, tarot decks and instructions will be available for you to use during your visit to Raúl de Nieves: A window to the see, a spirit star chiming in the wind of wonder…
SCHEDULE: FEB 10, MAR 9, APR 13, MAY 18, JUN 8, 3 - 4 PM

The Crocosmic Tarot
 was created by Leon Finley, a queer trans interdisciplinary artist and Tarot and Akashic Records reader. Their work in all realms seeks to support joy, connection, and healing for themselves and others. Leon will be on-site to provide guidance and answer questions. Drop in any time between 3 and 4 PM to use the tarot decks and engage with Leon!
