Everyone knows that the night
is just a shadow of an ancient bird

that the words you don’t sing
still get heard

by all the trees in the cemetery

Good art makes you see something differently

It makes you see through the eyes of the artist

The world looks different

It might make you think differently

It might make you feel differently

It effects a change in the mind of the viewer

Animals
 Ryan McGinley

Team Gallery, 83 Grand St., NYC

Animals consists of McGinley’s color portraits of live animals with nude models. The exhibition is his first made up exclusively of selections from this growing, and ambitious, body of work. The artist visited various sanctuaries, zoos, and rescue establishments across the United States, erecting a mobile studio wherever possible and working with a number of pre-eminent animal trainers. The animals are not mere props in photographs of people; on the contrary, McGinley considers them the subjects of these images. There exists both tension and tenderness between the models and wild animals, as they claw, clutch, nibble, and hug one another. - thru June 2
