Fredric Snitzer Gallery is pleased to announce an extension of our recent exhibition Seeing Red, now presented as Seeing More Red, featuring new works by Christian Charles, Robin Hill, María Martínez-Cañas, and Gavin Perry.

Building upon the original exhibition’s exploration of the color red’s psychological, cultural, and formal resonance, this expanded presentation continues to deepen and complicate the narrative. Red remains central—not just as a visual element, but as a conceptual thread linking varied artistic strategies and emotional tones.

Gavin Perry’s sleek, process-driven works push the materiality of red to a high-gloss intensity with hand drawn elements, creating a surface that is both seductive and industrial. Christian Charles brings a cinematic sensibility to the exhibition, using red as a tool for narrative tension and symbolic disruption. Robin Hill's practice investigates spatial relationships and perception, using red to mark, map, and transform the viewer’s experience of form and structure. In María Martínez-Cañas' work, a bold field of red forms the backdrop for a dynamic interplay of translucent forms, layered textures, and fragmented imagery, integrating photography, collage, and digital manipulation to create the overall abstract composition. 

These additions further highlight the exhibition’s core idea: red is never neutral. Whether signaling urgency or intimacy, protest or passion, it continues to provoke, seduce, and challenge.

Together with the original lineup—assume vivid astro focus, Hernan Bas, Raúl Cordero, Noah Cribb, Elena Dorfman, Alexander Kroll, Marielle Plaisir, Ema Ri, and Lázaro Saavedra—this expanded presentation of Seeing More Red affirms the enduring vitality of red as a source of artistic inquiry.
