Openings: A Fresh Batch of Shows at White Columns
White Columns comes out swinging with no less than five new exhibitions, with Patrick Berran, Ray Hamilton, Daniel Heidkamp, Jennifer Nichols and ALBUM (organized by Primary Information).

WEDNESDAY, JUNE 11
Opening: “Every day in every way I’m freely opening my senses to the beauty in myself and opening up to all the beauty around me and in all the people I will encounter” at Martos
Two North Chelsea playmakers, Ebony L. Haynes (of Foxy Production) and Taylor Trabulus (of Martos Gallery), helm this formidably titled show. (There’s an accompanying Instagram account that provides something of an explanation.) Who’s in it? Six super fresh artists: Irina Arnaut, Vittorio Brodmann, Nicole Eisenman, John Giorno, Fabian Marti and Dave Miko. —A.R.
Martos Gallery, 540 West 29th Street, New York, 6–8 p.m.
THURSDAY, JUNE 12
Opening: “Chatbots, Tongues, Denial, and Various Other Abstractions” at Bortolami
This seems like a great idea for a show: take four of the most intoxicatingly adventurous, exciting artists in action right now—Ian Cheng, Melanie Gilligan, Carissa Rodriguez, and Anicka Yi—and put them together. —A.R.
Bortolami, 520 West 20th Street, New York, 6–8 p.m.
Opening: “Colony Room” at Simon Preston
Curious what Nick Goss, Zak Prekop and Patricia Treib have been up to lately? Me too. This show has works by those three that “are brought together by a use of sculptural form in both painting and cast objects.” —A.R.
Simon Preston, 301 Broome Street, New York, 6–8 p.m.
Performance: Opera Cabal at The Kitchen
