Chelsea and the old museums aren’t the only places to see art in this city! Check out some local art shows in the neighborhood this month.
Upper West Sider Naomi Davies, who painted the image above, has 11 paintings hanging at St. Agnes Library on Amsterdam between 81st and 82nd streets through April 30.
Angelo Romano, originally of Madrid, is hanging a show this month at the Church of St. Paul & St. Andrew on 86th street and West End Avenue. “Madrid-born Angelo Romano’s vibrant mixed media works range from traditional paintings on canvas and paper to elaborate three-dimensional creations using found and recycled objects, including pennies and tennis rackets. The Upper West Side-based self-taught artist recently donated nearly 150 of his diverse works, most on spiritual themes and many incorporating his signature angels, to the Church of St. Paul & St. Andrew on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, where they are on display in three rooms and several hallways. St. Paul & St. Andrew will celebrate this generous donation with a reception for the artist on Sunday April 21, from 5 to 7 p.m. The free event is open to the public; children are welcome.”
Nicholas Pollack has his photos of the Bronx River up in the Aish Center at 313 West 86th street until May 20. The gallery is open Mondays from 11 a.m. until 9 p.m. and Tuesday and Thursday from 11 until 5.
