“On a recent visit, I encountered some of the most interesting art I’d seen in a while. The best part was they were things I was unprepared for, by artists I did not know. I started in Williamsburg, at Front Room Gallery on Roebling Street (Fig. 2). It is one of the older Brooklyn galleries, having been around since 1999. Its blurb says it favours conceptual and ‘non-commercial’ art, but on the day I was there I was amazed by Emily Roz’s large, highly detailed coloured-pencil drawings of animals in beautiful settings involved in life-and-death struggles. Front Room also produces an intriguing line of multiples.”
