EXHIBITIONS
NOoSPHERE Arts invites artists to exhibit and create site-specific works within our one-of-a-kind spaces, which are enveloped by an industrial landscape and adorned with lush green rooftops.
We take pride in our commitment to supporting primarily emerging, immigrant, and marginalized artists through our exhibitions, artist awards, and residency programs. Our emphasis lies in promoting experimental and contemplative works that explore the themes of sustainability and the ever-evolving connection between humanity and nature.
Our visual art exhibits cover a wide range of mediums, from painting and sculpture to digital art performance art and installation. We strive to curate exhibits that push boundaries and challenge traditional notions of what art can be.
We believe that art has the power to evoke change and shape perspectives, and we are proud to use our platform to showcase the incredible talent of emerging artists who share our commitment to creating a more sustainable world.

REPOPULATIONS: New Horizons is the second iteration of the Climate Week-inspired exhibition series REPOPULATIONS which focuses on environmentally-themed subjects and takes place yearly during the summer and early fall months. Curated by Daniela Holban, this exhibition is part of the larger NOoSPHERE Arts' WE ARE NATURE Series: art events that make full use of the unique stage setting of the Kingsland Wildflowers bird sanctuary at Broadway Stages in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, to engage a diverse audience in environmental efforts through art.
REPOPULATIONS: New Horizons brings together a group of contemporary artists to reflect and discuss environmentally-focused themes, the state of the world today, and new conceptions of the future. The exhibition will focus on female-identifying and non-binary artists, in an attempt to construct visions of the power of creation + destruction and metaphorically reclaim sacred spaces for the priestess archetype. This temporary environment will be used for reflection, meditation, and celebration of nature, humanity, and inspiration, a place meant to contemplate how we will build a new world after the pandemic: the epoch-defining event of our time. The exhibition will present site-specific installations, immersive sound experiences, video, sculpture, and 2D works and will occupy Last Frontier NYC and parts of the Kingsland Wildflowers Rooftops.
The exhibition is sponsored, in part, by the Greater New York Arts Development Fund of the NYC Department of Cultural Affairs, administered by Brooklyn Arts Council (BAC), NOoSPHERE Arts, and Broadway Stages. Exhibition preview on ARTFARE.

NOoSPHERE Arts presents REPOPULATIONS, a group exhibition and series of performances opening during Kingsland Wildflowers' Fall Festival, taking place during Climate Week 2019. Curated by Daniela Holban, the show will feature works by 20+ artists.
REPOPULATIONS examines the parallels between declining local natural habitats within the Greenpoint landscape: Native plant and wildlife alongside the artists' populations have become depleted over time due to the neglect and contamination of their ecosystems by both industrial and property development. A commentary on a microcosm of a greater global crisis, the exhibition addresses the importance and celebrates the repopulation efforts of these ecosystems in several ways – by presenting a selection of artists working in the area as well as showcasing artworks that comment on environmental themes.
With Works by: Jon Barraclough, Marijke Brinkhof, Juliet Jane, Maki Kaoru, Aomi Kikuchi, Sol Kjok, Tom Koken, Sjaak Kooij, Ofra Lapid, Till Lauer, Allison Maletz, Julianne Nash, Agata Nowicka, Brian Rattiner, Beau Bree Rhee, Noam Shoan, Asia Sztencel, Adriano Valeri, Ingvild Waerhaug, Martynka Wawrzyniak, Albin Wiberg, Alex Wolkowicz and Gabriel Zimmer.
Special multi-media performance with Ingvild Waerhaug on vocals and Art Baron on bass recorder & trombone on Sept.21st at 6:30PM.
The exhibition is sponsored by Broadway Stages, a generous arts patron whose support allows a multitude of displaced artists renewed access to the former manufacturing plants where the creative tribe once thrived.
Artworks available for purchase on ARTFARE. A portion of the proceeds will benefit Kingsland Wildflowers and NOoSPHERE Arts.
