On Jan. 18, the Edward Hopper House Museum & Study Center in Nyack will present the opening of “David Salle: Works on Paper” from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. The exhibit includes the first presentation of a selection of figural paintings that he created last year.

Salle’s work extends beyond painting, photography, printmaking and stage design. He is also a prolific essayist and is a regular contributor to The New York Review of Books.

“Salle is described as an artist’s artist,” said Kathleen Motes Bennewitz, the Edward Hopper House Museum’s executive director. “We are honored to feature his new work in galleries within the historic home of another iconic artist, providing an interesting venue to delve into Salle’s artistic dialogue with Edward Hopper.”

There’s a reception from 6 to 8 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 20.
