A Tribeca Salute to Women

One Art Space in Tribeca used Women’s History Month as an opportunity to spotlight contemporary female voices, presenting two group exhibitions that brought together artists working across painting, photography, sculpture, and digital media.

In March, One Art Space in Tribeca turned its focus to the creative force of women artists, presenting two back-to-back exhibitions in honor of Women’s History Month and International Women’s Day. Curated by MaryAnn Giella McCulloh, IWD 2026 and She Is 2026 brought together a wide-ranging roster of female artists whose work reflected the depth, individuality, and evolving presence of women in contemporary art.

The paired exhibitions, presented during the gallery’s 10th anniversary year, offered a timely reminder of the role galleries can play in creating space for dialogue as well as discovery. Co-owned by McCulloh and Mei Fung, One Art Space has built a reputation as an accessible downtown venue with an emphasis on community, visibility, and artistic exchange. For March, that mission took on a specific focus, centering the voices of women across multiple disciplines and perspectives.

The first exhibition, IWD 2026, was created in recognition of International Women’s Day and featured a broad mix of artists working in painting, photography, sculpture, and digital media. Rather than define womanhood through a single curatorial lens, the exhibition embraced variety, allowing each artist’s visual language to speak for itself. The result was a presentation that felt less like a formal statement and more like an open conversation about identity, expression, and creative presence.

That dialogue continued with She Is 2026, a second exhibition that extended the month’s celebration with another select group of featured artists. Together, the two shows created a layered portrait of contemporary women’s art—dynamic, personal, and unconfined by any one style or expectation. The exhibitions also underscored how women-led spaces continue to shape the cultural landscape in meaningful ways, not only by exhibiting work, but by building environments where artists are seen and supported.

Set in the heart of downtown Manhattan, One Art Space offered more than a commemorative nod to the calendar. It created a moment of visibility for artists whose work engages emotion, memory, material, and transformation in distinct ways. For visitors, the exhibitions served as both celebration and reflection—an acknowledgment that Women’s History Month remains not only a time to honor the past, but also to recognize the artists actively shaping the present.
