Soap bubbles – a delight to both the young and the old – are the basis for Berlin-based artist Jiri George Dokoupil’s work on show at Paul Kasmin Gallery. Since the early 90s, the artist has experimented with various combinations of soap, pigment and other materials to create permanent traces of ephemeral beauty. (through Feb 7th).
