The Gift of Art

Just over the New Canaan border, you can find great gift ideas at the recently renovated Lionheart Gallery in Pound Ridge, New York. The gallery, which is under new ownership, is sporting a dramatic new look and focusing on top-drawer contemporary art. Within the recently expanded venue are paintings, prints, collages, sculpture and books, plus unusual works on paper and black and white photography. Also on view is the exhibition “Paintings and Monotypes” by Claudia Mengel, “Wire and Bronze Sculpture” by Mihail, and documentary photography of New York street scenes from the l940s and 1950s by Vivian Cherry from her book Helluva.
