Kongtrul Jigme Nyamgel, whose paintings have appeared in Tricycle, has a new show of “city-inspired paintings and photographs” opening in New York next week. Titled “Abstract & Concrete,” the show gets my vote for best Buddhist pun of the month.

Check out some of the artist’s new work here, and see his website for more details. The show opens with a reception at 7 pm on June 18th at the New York Shambhala Center (118 W. 22nd St. #6).
