Kikuo Saito Inaugurates James Fuentes Tribeca

The latest in a rush of thrilling new arrivals to Tribeca’s gallery scene is marked by the debut show of James Fuentes’ downtown outpost. Friends, fellow artists, curators, collectors, and other well-wishers turned out to 52 White Street to celebrate the opening of Saito’s “Color Codes,” which features eight large-scale works that venture beyond mere color studies to incorporate Abstract Expressionism and Gutai. Guests took in the show and celebrated the neighborhood’s newest arrival over wine and cocktails. Notables in attendance included James Fuentes, Christopher Y. Lew, Dustin Yellin, Caleb Hahne Quintana, Brennan Aubol, Katrin Lewinsky, Keegan Monaghan, Kevin Claiborne, and more. Photo credit: Mike Vitelli/BFA.
