A smaller, newly opened stop: Vessels: Bodies, Tales & Machines, at Westbeth Gallery, 55 Bethune Street, through October 31. Nicolas Touron’s 3D-printed porcelain works acquire borosilicate glass additions in collaboration with Amy Lemaire; Jeanne Verdoux contributes ceramic-and-glass figures, and Fanny Allié works with found fabric, prints and paint.

The attraction is the range of ways a container can become porous, bodily or architectural. Touron and Lemaire’s Nature 5 is listed at 18 by 14 by 12 inches—an object to walk around, not a monumental screen experience. Open today 1–6 p.m. Artists, work images and visitor information
