SUMMARY:Buffalo Farmer's Market — Clinton-Bailey Farmer's & Flea Market
DESCRIPTION:The Niagara Frontier Growers Co-operative Market\, Inc. was born in October 1930. The objectives of the co-op were to promote\, foster and encourage the intelligent and orderly marketing of agricultural products between producer and consumer. The co-op was also formed to make the distribution of agricultural products between producer and consumer as direct and efficient possible. \nNiagara Frontier Growers leased the land from the railroad until the 1950’s when it then purchased the land. Over the years \, the Market became known as the Clinton-Bailey Farmers Market and has become a vital link in Western New York’s food distribution. \nOver the years\, many Western New York farmers and growers have brought some of the finest locally grown products to the Market for distribution. Some farmers traveled more than 2 hours to sell their goods at the Market. In the early years of the Market many of the farmers would transport their goods by horse and buggy! \nToday\, the location of the Clinton-Bailey Farmers Market is central within the growing region and central within the “food distribution hub” of the City of Buffalo. Hundreds of thousands of customers pass through the Market each year to purchase fresh locally grown goods direct from the farmer insuring healthy eating and savings to the end consumer. \nThe Market has also become a desired destination for those looking to purchase flowers\, vegetable plants\, herbs\, shrubs and Christmas Trees. Many wholesale buyers include major grocers\, institutions\, neighborhood markets\, restaurants\, caterers\, garden centers and other farm market stands that come to the Market every Tuesday\, Thursday and Saturday morning as early as 4:00 AM. \nCLINTON BAILEY MARKET\n1443 – 1517 Clinton Street\nBuffalo\, NY 14206

SUMMARY:Buffalo Art: Rachel Shelton\, 'Slow Looking'
DESCRIPTION:Buffalo Arts Studio is thrilled to present Slow Looking\, a new body of work by Rachel Shelton that challenges the negativity so often associated with decay\, uncertainty\, and precarity. Featuring a series of monotypes\, etchings\, collagraphs\, and screenprints of rock forms\, the exhibition is on view from May 22 through August 1\, 2026. An opening reception will be held on Friday\, May 22\, from 5:00 to 8:00 pm as part of M&T Fourth Friday at Tri-Main. \nAll of the rock forms in Slow Looking originate from a single photo of two rocks in a field of glacial deposits that Shelton stumbled upon during a trip to Montana. With adjustments to scale\, orientation\, color\, and surrounding compositions\, the prints invite us to shift between micro and macro perspectives and consider the ecosystems pocketed within a life cycle. Her work documents the passage of time via the life cycle of a rock\, suggests the building blocks of larger structures\, and navigates the network of meaning and connections that form when things fall apart.  \nFor more information about Buffalo Arts Studio\, please visit www.buffaloartsstudio.org

SUMMARY:Buffalo Art: Frank Chang\, 'The Mesh'
DESCRIPTION:From the artist: In the studio\, I take on the perspective of an “archaeologist of the present” in order to reflect on the climate crisis. Otherwise\, the stakes feel too high and making art feels futile and insignificant compared to the magnitude of the problem. I collect fragments of climate news\, bureaucratic documents\, and mass media imagery\, looking for linkages that are unexpectedly resonant. I am searching for things under the surface\, inexplicable connections that are strangely well suited to expressing the feeling of the present\, with all its contradictions\, anxieties\, and possibilities. \nThis exhibition combines new and recent climate-related work. The title is inspired by philosopher Timothy Morton’s metaphor of the mesh. Morton uses the mesh to refer to the ecological interconnectedness of all things\, both living and non-living. The mesh\, according to Morton\, allows us to imagine things normally thought to be contradictory. It is both foreground and background\, hard and delicate. It is both too large and infinitesimally small. The mesh is the perfect metaphor for thinking about climate because “[e]ach point of the mesh is both the centre and edge of a system of points\, so there is no absolute centre or edge.”[1] The mesh also perfectly encapsulates my working process\, in which each fragment leads to another; I see what’s in front of me as both the beginning and end of the process. \nHyperbatteries is a series of sculptures that reconfigure the clean and rational aesthetics of various “green” battery technologies as dense assemblages of entangled materials\, histories\, and ideas. I began with the definition of batteries as connected energies\, then followed threads ranging from the German Romanticism of early battery pioneers to Qing Dynasty symbolism and spirituality. Of course\, replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy is crucial in helping to mitigate climate change. But batteries are too often depicted as the “solution” to climate change\, with little regard for how they are produced or where their minerals come from. Indeed\, as political scientist Thea Riofrancos points out\, “…the promise of zero emissions sits alongside the reality of fossil fuel extraction and combustion\, renewable energy deployment\, and mining to outfit carbon-free capitalism.”[2] \nOther works in the exhibition employ a variety of archaeologically inspired motifs and techniques\, especially paper squeeze casting. Paper squeeze\, or paper molding\, was an archaeological technique developed by Alfred Maudslay in the late 19th century in which layers of wet paper were pressed onto Mayan monuments to create replicas that could later be cast in plaster. Maudslay used this technique to reach remote sites in Guatemala that would have been inaccessible to teams carrying tons of plaster-casting supplies. Incidentally\, Maudslay began his archaeological work at the same time widespread global temperature recordings began. My paper sculptures are copies of copies\, created by first making a “sacrificial sculpture\,” which is then paper-molded. When completed\, the original is thrown out\, leaving the paper cast as the work. By displaying the cast as the artwork\, I want to highlight its indeterminacy. The sacrificial sculpture can be thought of as both absent and present\, like an impression\, thought\, or memory. The surface of these sculptures is fragile yet resilient and is skin-like\, which reminds me of the solidity and impermanence of ourselves\, our past\, and our imagined futures. \n\nFRANK CHANG (b. 1979\, New York) is a multi-disciplinary artist who employs and re-frames ordinary or familiar visual forms in order to examine the entangled and complex interrelationships between climate\, social\, and cultural issues. Chang’s work spans a variety of mediums\, including works on paper\, sculpture\, installation\, and performance\, but each body of work is based upon a consistent methodology in which recognizable forms — from the vernacular to the historical — act as springboards for deeper investigations into these issues. \nHis work has been exhibited at Gallery Ondo (Seoul\, South Korea)\, Gallery G (Hiroshima\, Japan)\, Wells College (Aurora\, NY)\, Ithaca College\, Ortega y Gasset Projects (Brooklyn\, NY)\, Bushel (Delhi\, NY)\, Dartmouth College\, the Torrance Art Museum\, Museum of Jurassic Technology\, LA Design Center\, Woodbury University\, and Virginia Commonwealth University\, among others. He has also installed site-specific works on Governors Island\, High Desert Test Sites (Wonder Valley\, CA) and alongside a stream in South Windham\, VT.He was formerly co-director of Monte Vista Projects in Los Angeles\, and he was a contributor to the book Dispatches and Directions: On Artist-Run Organizations in Los Angeles and to the journal MATERIAL. He received his BA from Dartmouth College and his MFA from the California Institute of the Arts. He is a Lecturer in the Department of Art & Design at Binghamton University. \n[1] Timothy Morton\, The Ecological Thought\, (Harvard University Press\, 2010)\, 29.[2] Thea Riofrancos\, Extraction: The Frontiers of Green Capitalism\, (W.
