Somewhere Under the Rainbow / The Sky is blue and What Am I, Charles Moffett x False Flag Gallery (2021)
Charles Moffett and False Flag are pleased to present Somewhere Under the Rainbow / The Sky is Blue and What am I, a dual-site exhibition from New York based artist Alteronce Gumby, on view from March 18 through April 25, 2021.
A total of 16 works will be split between the exhibition’s two sites. A selection of gemstone-heavy works on panel, ranging from 12 x 12 inches to 53 x 70 inches, will be on view at Charles Moffett’s Canal Street space, taking advantage of the gallery’s sun-drenched rooms to maximize the natural light interplay with Gumby’s multi-faceted surfaces. The second component of the exhibition will activate False Flag’s vast Long Island City space by allowing Gumby to push the boundaries of scale; its centerpiece will be a 24-foot-long canvas work (across six panels) that engages various shades of blue and focuses on metaphysical considerations that surround subjective perceptions of the sky.
