James Kalm combines a couple of exhibitions that have yet to find a slot in the roster.  Dennis Oppenheim is a stalwart of the Soho art community, a participant in Land and Body Art.  This show at Janos Gat Gallery features proposals for large scale public works that hover somewhere between sculpture and architecture.  Mitchell-Inness & Nash presents Allan DArcangelo Paintings 19621982.   DArcangelo (1930-1998) is one of the greatest if under recognized Pop masters.  This is his first New York retrospective since 1979.  Employing images from everyday life and the media, DArcangelo melded a simplified directness with an abstract sensibility that achieves the quality of high-speed American icons.  The pictures often depicting highways signage combined with pinup cheesecake.
