The Thai artist Pinaree Sanpitak began exploring female breasts in her work shortly after the birth of her son in 1994, when she began breastfeeding. Reflecting on her experience as a mother, the breast became a metaphor for herself as well as a broader celebration of womanhood. In 2001 Sanpitak began to draw parallels between the breast and Buddhist stupas-dome-shaped sites of veneration, and began her Breast Stupa series, combining the sacred with the sensuous.

Manitoga / The Russel Wright Design Center and R & Company present Jeff Zimmerman: Glass Light Nature, a solo exhibition by the acclaimed glass artist in dialogue with the unique environments designed by Mary and Russel Wright. Manitoga-the Wrights' house, studio, and woodland garden-is a National Historic Landmark and one of the few twentieth-century modern homes in New York State open to the public.
