Westbury Arts hosted an exhibition titled Black, White, and Grey or Monochrome Members Only, showcasing the expressive potential of monochromatic palettes. Member artists were encouraged to explore a single color or the interplay among black, white and subtle gradations, aiming to evoke emotional depth, varied moods or compelling narratives through nuanced monochrome compositions.
The exhibition welcomed artists working across realism, surrealism and abstraction, emphasizing the timeless appeal and dramatic contrasts achievable with monochrome art. A total of twenty-eight artists contributed over sixty works, demonstrating significant versatility and creativity.
The opening reception was attended by a full house, including family, friends and participating artists who engaged with visitors about their work. Notably, Miss Long Island Teen 2026, Shyla Silva, attended the event and represents Long Island at various community engagements.
Many artworks are available for purchase, enhancing the exhibition’s appeal. The Westbury Arts gallery is open Thursdays from 12:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m., Fridays from 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., and Saturdays from 10:00 p.m. to 2:00 p.m.
The exhibition is free to visit and will remain open until April 23, providing ample opportunity for visitors to experience this compelling showcase of monochromatic art.
