Much madness is divinest sense at Cohan and Leslie, particularly the drawings of Mike Paré and the site specific wall drawing and other drawings by Dasha Shishkin. We first saw Mike Paré's work in a group show at ATM Gallery, and first encountered Dasha Shishkin in a group show at 5BE curated by Lital Mehr.

James Hyde at Brent Sikkema.

in words and pictures at Murray Guy. A smart group show (mostly) dealing with art incorporating texts.

Betty Woodman at Max Protetch. This show is the best work I have seen from her.

Don Doe at Oliver Kamm. Old Master-style skill applied to outrageous paintings and drawings of pirate women.

Aaron Spangler (large-scale intricate wood reliefs) and Ryan Johnson (compelling paper sculptures) at Zach Feuer.
