The artist, Jessica Lichtenstein, is a New York and Wyoming–based multidisciplinary artist working in installation, painting, sculpture, and video, and this is her first solo museum exhibition. Taking its title from the ecological concept of rewilding, the show uses it as a metaphor for liberty and release, reclaiming the female body from art history's erotic conventions within speculative landscapes shaped by autonomy and collectivity. Her technicolor, erotically charged works merge opulent materials with technological precision as feminist reimaginings of nature and the female form.", "url": "https://noky.io/en/new-york/events/jessica-lichtenstein-rewilding-54044/", "official_url": "", "image": "https://noky.io/images/79bb90562d5be505976ca79b52964ed3c27c399e44192cfbafc41892df1c9f6c-2000.webp", "dates": [{"start": "2026-10-27T00:00:00-04:00", "end": "2027-04-18T00:00:00-04:00", "place": "Museum of Arts and Design", "address": "Columbus Circle 2, New York", "tickets": ""}], "similar": [{"title": "Saya Woolfalk: The WoodsWoman Method", "start": "2026-10-09T00:00:00-04:00", "end": "2027-03-28T00:00:00-04:00", "place": "Bronx Museum of the Arts", "address": "Grand Concourse 1040, 10456 Bronx", "price": "", "price_from": null, "price_to": null, "tickets_url": "", "category": "exhibitions-museums", "tags": ["art/installation", "nature"], "description": "An exhibition at the Bronx Museum of the Arts, on view as the first chapter of a multi-year initiative, showing process materials from a new commission alongside related works from the Museum's permanent collection.
