Six Picks for Art House Productions’ JCFridays

t SMUSH Gallery (340 Summit Ave.), there’ll be an interactive photography exhibition set at the infamous Overbrook Asylum in Cedar Grove. Studios at the Musicians Building (130 Central Ave.) in the Heights and Project 14C (157B 1st St.) in the Powerhouse Arts District are opening their doors. Project Greenville (128 Winfield Ave.) promises a group show about days spent inside. Tehran-born artist Rene Saheb, known for her intense colors and hallucinatory imagery, takes over the lobby at ART150, and upstairs in the Outliers Gallery, the storyteller Francisco Silva presents still life paintings with subtle sociopolitical dimensions.  

Yes, it’s the return of JCFridays — Art House Productions’s first quarterly citywide art blowout of the year — and you’d need a time machine and a quick trigger on a personal teleportation device to cover it all. Even the most enthusiastic gallerygoer will have to choose between worthy events. So which ones to pick?
