Unrequited by SPY Projects

It seems easy to describe. Clear-cut and well-defined. An exhibition with a title: Unrequited, a curator: Sara Apple, and a group of artists, running from April 25 - May 31. But just look at the address where the LA-based gallery SPY Projects is hosting the show, 59 Wooster Street, and the seams start to split, unfurling in many directions. Not just another SoHo loft, the building—the very floor, in fact—once housed the Brooke Alexander Gallery, which opened its first exhibition in the space nearly 40 years ago and worked with a number of artists who have gone on to become legends, influencing the art scene in New York and beyond.
