Hana Yilma Godine at Fridman Gallery

Reflecting the complexity of women’s lives, Ethiopian painter Hana Yilma Godine literally makes her characters multi-dimensional, fashioning their images from oil and acrylic, magazines, newsprint, fabric and more.  This standout piece from her first New York solo show at Fridman Gallery features overlapping female figures who may represent the same figure at different points in life.  (On view on the Lower East Side through Nov 1st.  Masks and social distancing are required).
