Shirley Knight

Across Midtown, Shirley Knight sharpens the edges of tradition. An artist at 1674 Broadway #7a, her work doesn’t whisper; it clarifies. The concrete floors of the building could house anything, but the studio shelves hold more than books. Figures meet abstraction in the white cubes of the block, a zone where commerce and creativity collide daily.

You’ll find collage, drawing, and painting here, all fused into something unmistakably singular. Afternoons buzz with the zip of cut paper and the scent of acrylic—traits that spill into the sidewalk when time allows. Behind the 10019 zip code lies a block where utility shapes art: no gallery fuss, just the business of making.

When the canvas leans down or ink bleeds too far, a call settles the chaos. Dial (212) 765-9564 between 11 and 7, when the phone rings past the subway din. No automated greetings, no looping hold music—just the chance to speak with the person behind the brush.

To reach the studio, follow Broadway north of Times Square; the building’s fire escapes spell it out. The map will land you safely at 1674 Broadway #7a. Directions: https://www.google.com/maps/place?ftid=0x89c258f8789417b9:0xdd39b0db7f728e73
