The Painting Center is pleased to present Remains, a solo exhibition of paintings by artist Kristin Osterberg in the Main Gallery. The exhibition opens on Tuesday, April 1, and runs through April 26, 2025. An opening reception will be held on Thursday, April 3 from 5 to 8 pm.

A cracked amphora, a delicate kylix, the curve of an ancient urn, busts of those long gone—artifacts that once held water, wine, daily life, human likenesses. They now hold time itself. In Remains, Kristin Osterberg reimagines classical relics not as static museum pieces but as living echoes—familiar and distant, personal and universal. Like the faded snapshots of family life from her earlier exhibition, these oils and acrylics invite her audience to project their histories onto the surfaces of antiquity. For Osterberg, the past, imperfect and enduring, still lingers in our present.

Kristin Osterberg lives and works outside New York City. She is a Rhode Island School of Design graduate and has shown in and around the New York area. She has had solo shows at The Painting Center in NYC as well as a solo show in 2024 at Pinkwater Gallery in Kingston, New York.
