Susana Solano at Jack Shainman Gallery

Jack Shainman Gallery brings together sculptures from the past twenty-six years by major Spanish artist Susana Solano this month, including these evocative rattan forms, which suggest miniaturized housing (foreground) or a gargantuan thimble (back).  (In Chelsea through Jan 11th.  Check website for holiday season opening hours.)
