The Art Students League of New York was founded in 1875 by a group of art students who hoped to escape the Academy by founding a member-run art school designed for and run by independent artists. For nearly 150 years, the Art Students League of New York has been a haven for countless artists, who use the freedom it affords them to explore diverse artistic practices, methodologies, and mediums while developing a mastery of traditional techniques.

Panel Discussion
Landscape Art Today: All Day Long Panel Discussion
7 Nov. 2026 | 3-5pm | Free | RSVP Required
KINOSAITO presents an afternoon panel discussion featuring artists Elizabeth Hazan and John McAllister, who are featured in KINOSAITO’s current group landscape exhibition, All Day Long, along with the show’s curators, Katrin Lewinsky and Sarah Greenberg Morse. Moderated by art critic David Ebony, the panel will explore issues and ideas related to making contemporary landscape art, ranging from traditional inspirations to modern abstractions, as well as climate change, practical challenges, and individual processes.
Moderator: David Ebony
David Ebony is an art critic, editor, and independent curator who teaches a graduate seminar in art and culture at the New York Academy of Art as adjunct faculty in Critical Studies. He received his MA in art history from Hunter College, where he studied with Rosalind Krauss and Robert Morris. He is a contributing editor of Art in America and a frequent contributor to Artnet News and Yale University Press online, and a long-standing member and former board member of AICA. His artist monographs include Stephen Antonakos, Larry Poons, Julio Larraz, Beatriz Milhazes, and Graham Sutherland: A Retrospective. Recent curatorial projects include Grasshopper: A Judy Pfaff Survey at CR10. He lives and works in New York City.
Artist: Elizabeth Hazan
Elizabeth Hazan is a New York based visual artist. Her imaginary landscape paintings mix gestural topography with elements of modernist abstraction. The work depicts a version of nature off-kilter, evoking a charged atmosphere, familiar to the viewer yet verging on the surreal.
Hazan was born and raised in New York City and attended Bryn Mawr College and the New York Studio School. She was awarded a fellowship to the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture, has twice been a resident of Yaddo, and received a grant from the Peter S. Reed Foundation. Recent solo shows include Double Fantasy, HESSE FLATOW, NY; Weather, Pamela Salisbury Gallery, Hudson, NY; Under the Sun, HESSE FLATOW, NY; Sundown, Madoo Conservancy, Sagaponack, NY. Her painting was included in Painting Energy: The Alex Katz Foundation Collection at the Portland Museum and is currently on view in a two person show, Wild Orchard, at Seven Sisters Gallery, Houston, TX.
Hazan’s work has been written about in Hyperallergic, Forbes, Two Coats of Paint, Art Critical, The Brooklyn Rail and The Art Newspaper. From 2018-2026, she served as the founder and director of Platform Project Space in Brooklyn, NY. Elizabeth Hazan is represented by HESSE FLATOW, NY.
Artist: John McAllister
John McAllister was born in 1973 in Slidell, Louisiana. He received a BFA from the University of Texas at Austin in 1999 and an MFA from the ArtCenter College of Design in Pasadena, California, in 2007. Today the artist lives and works in Florence, Massachusetts.
McAllister’s large-scale paintings and panoramas upend traditional dictates of perspective through his pairing of flat pictorial surfaces with rich illusionistic depth. Rendered in a characteristically vibrant palette concentrated on a close range of colors (often lavenders, reds, and purples), the artist’s work achieves the distinctive and abundant visual effect of a dreamlike garden in full bloom. McAllister’s obsession with the spectral qualities of light and its representation brings his work into conversation with the legacy of French Fauvist and Impressionist masters such as Matisse, Bonnard, and Monet.
John McAllister has recently presented solo and group exhibitions including Kunsthalle Emden, Germany (2024); ‘sudden thunder some motley sea’, Hagiwara Projects, Tokyo, Japan (2015); Consortium Museum, Dijon, France (2018); MAMCO, Geneva, Switzerland (2019); Marciano Art Foundation, Los Angeles, CA, US; Brattleboro Museum of Art, VT, US (2021); Cue Art Foundation, New York, NY, US (2008); and Rubell Family Collection, Miami, FL, US (2011), among others.
Curator: Katrin Lewisnky
Katrin Lewinsky is a partner at James Fuentes Gallery, New York and Los Angeles. Lewinsky’s singular approach to her work is informed by a wealth of experience beyond the commercial gallery world. In the fields of art, architecture, design, and fashion she has had leadership roles at private collections, public institutions, and galleries, with biennales, art fairs, and foundations, in New York, Europe, and South Africa.

Fall 2026 Landscape Film Series
Fever Dream Terrains
Fata Morgana
20 Nov. 2026 | 6:30pm | $10
Free for Members | RSVP Required
Fata Morgana (1971) 1h19m
Directed by Werner Herzog
Partly mystical, partly absurd, this early film by Werner Herzog evokes the chimerical visions of a desert mirage, re-framing and making strange different documentary images of life and decay in the Sahara. Film historian Lotte Eisener reads a Mayan creation myth and unlikely musical choices further twist and confuse our sense of place.
Before the screening, guest speaker Ryan Tracy, PhD—artist, writer, and scholar—will introduce the film with a presentation titled Landscape Abstraction: Werner Herzog Against Himself, followed by a post-screening discussion.
Light refreshments provided. Donations are appreciated.
