TWO DAYS | Opening Reception // In Conjunction with Bromo Art Walk
Thursday, May 14 :: 5-9pm
@ Maryland Art Place
TWO DAYS is an exhibition conceived around two cities, Baltimore and New York. In 1901, the Baltimore Orioles were sold to New York and became the New York Highlanders. In 1913 they were renamed the Yankees. The two cities are linked together through America’s favorite pastime. TWO DAYS celebrates the East Coast and the ever-evolving relationship between Baltimore and New York.
The artists included have substantial relationships with both Baltimore and New York. The relationships include place of residence (past or present), family, education, teaching and exhibiting. The artists were selected on the uniqueness of their work and their respect for materiality and visual language. All share an interest in poetics driven by physical adventure and structural understanding. There may be similarities in some of the works but the show was not conceived with a particular aesthetic or common idea. The intention is to introduce artists with individual vision currently working in two nearby cities. Rather than being on two separate teams (Orioles and Yankees), the artists are on one team, bound by purpose and place.
The exhibition is curated by the artists Jim Condron and Glenn Goldberg. Jim lives and works in Baltimore and New York and Glenn is a lifelong New Yorker. Both have exhibited and taught in the Baltimore and New York areas.
Exhibiting Artists:
Eric Banks, Catherine Behrent, Bettina Blohm, Ben Browne, Guy Corriero, Brad Ewing, Jonathan Genkin, Michelle La Perriere, Sangram Majumdar, Isabelle F McTwigan,Nicholas Moenich, Cara Ober, Cordy Ryman, Jo Smail, Christine Stiver, Dominic Terlizzi, Ken Tisa, Rosa Valado, and Tommy White.
Please join us for the opening reception of TWO DAYS on Thursday, May 14, 2026 from 5 to 9 pm in conjunction with BROMO Art Walk. Additional programming will be announced.

Bradley Milligan and Nicholas Wisniewski: Shoring | Opening Reception
Thursday, May 14 :: 5-9pm
@ Red Giant
‘Shoring’ presents new work by Bradley Milligan and Nicholas Wisniewski. The title invokes the act of propping up a weakening structure, the accumulation of geological strata, and the constantly shifting zone where land meets water. Wisniewski carves images of local architecture into chunks of drywall excavated from abandoned row houses, working at the intersection of art and urban development in Baltimore. Milligan layers plaster, gesso, and wood, materials used for their strength, to underline an ethics of care and maintenance. Taken together, their works propose that the impulse to fix, to preserve, to hold something together even imperfectly, is not a consolation for a broken world but evidence that people keep imagining a better one.
‘Shoring’ is on view May 14–June 27, 2026. An opening reception will be held during the Bromo Art Walk on Thursday, May 14, 5–9pm. A closing reception will be held on Saturday, June 27, 6–8pm. All events are at Red Giant, 403 N. Paca St., Baltimore, MD 21211. To make an appointment, DM @redgiantgallery on Instagram, email redgiantgallery@gmail.com, or call (410) 989-1430.
