Time Lapse Video and Gallery Tour with Daniel Hauben

Get a behind the scenes look at Daniel Hauben’s creative process at a special screening of a time-lapse video showing the evolution of Emergence, in which 6 years of painting goes by in less than 20 minutes.  After the video there will be a gallery talk by the artist, followed by a reception.

Emergence, the the 9-foot centerpiece of the exhibition, was born during Covid-19 when Hauben was painting exclusively in his studio.  The artist describes it as a “6-year odyssey into the realm of my imagination,” and it is a distinct departure from the cityscapes he has become known for in his long artistic career.

The gallery opens at 11 AM and the time lapse will be shown at 1:00 PM.

Daniel Hauben was born and raised in the Bronx, and is a graduate of the School of Visual Arts. He has had over thirty national and international solo exhibitions, including at the Bronx Museum and the American Embassy in Berlin. His MTA Arts for Transit commission The EL was acknowledged in 2008 by Americans for the Arts as one of forty notable works of public art nationwide. In 2012 Hauben completed a commission of 22 paintings for the Bronx Community College Library, the largest public art commission in the Bronx in 70 years. His lifelong artistic focus has been the urban landscape, the natural landscape and, more recently, the landscape of his imagination. His work is in the collections of the Bronx Museum, Museum of the City of New York, New-York Historical Society, Library of Congress, and New York Public Library.

This program is supported, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs and the NYC Department of Youth and Community Development in partnership with the City Council. The Kingsbridge Historical Society’s programs are made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature.
