The simple geometry, reflective surfaces and day-glo colors of Beverly Fishman’s new paintings at Miles McEnery Gallery are an immediate draw. Despite the allure, however, they were inspired by shiny marketing techniques used by pharmaceutical companies and colors that signal warning. Fishman’s abstraction, rooted in real world references and resembling portals nods to the various mental and physical states we pass through in life. (On view in Chelsea through Oct 10th. Appointments are not necessary but masks and social distancing are required.)
