Keith Tyson: The Generative Universe
British artist Keith Tyson has long used wide-ranging techniques and materials to explore the permeable boundary between human creativity and the wider forces that give rise to patterns and possibilities across the cosmos. With ‘The Generative Universe,’ Tyson brings together paintings, sculptures, drawings and mixed media works spanning the past three decades—and makes a powerful case for the universe as a single generative system: a constantly shifting, causal network in which forms arise, transform, and dissolve. Exhibition runs from May 28th – August 16th.

Manuela x Bee:wild
Pollinators like bees and butterflies are crucial to our ecosystem, supporting food and biodiversity. Yet every year, their numbers are threatened by climate change, habitat loss, and pesticides. That’s why Manuela is teaming up with Bee:wild to help raise money to protect our precious pollinators. When you order our House Martini, which uses Barr Hill Gin finished with honey, or our Jasmin Honey Cake, $1 from every sale will be donated to the cause. Buzz into Manuela soon to participate through June!
