The City & The Silence | James Minichini Opening Reception
About
An artist’s private world. A remarkable discovery. A chance to share his legacy.
Join us for the opening reception of The City & The Silence: The Rediscovered Works of James Minichini.
Originally from Brooklyn, Minichini combined photorealism and surrealism to portray the movement and complexity of urban life. He later found a quieter existence in the Adirondack North Country, spending time in Saranac Lake and painting familiar scenes - including its historic Main Street - before settling in North Bangor.
After his passing, an extensive collection of paintings was discovered throughout his home. As his estate was being prepared for sale, a local real estate professional recognized an opportunity to preserve the collection and bring his artwork into public view.
This exhibition invites you to explore those rediscovered works and learn about the artist behind them.
Proceeds from artwork sales will be donated to a local youth organization.
Bring a friend and join us on December 4 as we celebrate a lifetime of creativity and give this collection a new audience.
Exhibition on view: November 16th - December 27th, 2026
