The Pit, Los Angeles

Tuning the Void introduces new work by Chicago-based Anna Kunz, marking her first solo exhibition with the gallery. Rooted in a long-running exploration of color as a relational force, the paintings unfold as quiet choreographies – shifting, responsive, and held in balance.

Working performatively, Kunz builds her canvases through layered washes of acrylic and dye on unprimed surfaces, allowing pigment and material to merge into something internally luminous. Drawing on palettes that echo dusk, dawn, and the saturated charge of 1960s psychedelia, her forms – arcs, wedges, and open planes – lean into one another, creating a sense of harmony that feels both intuitive and precise.

Spencer Museum of Art, Kansas

Street Nihonga traces the life and work of Jimmy Tsutomu Mirikitani (1920–2012), an artist whose practice was shaped by displacement, survival, and movement across borders. Born in California, raised in Hiroshima, and later living on the streets of New York, Mirikitani turned to art – painting, drawing, collage – as both testimony and means of endurance.

Bringing together the largest presentation of his work to date, the exhibition moves between personal history and collective memory, from Tule Lake Segregation Center to postwar urban life. Blending traditional Nihonga techniques with found materials and street-level collaboration, Mirikitani’s work unfolds as a deeply human record – one that connects lived experience, political history, and the quiet resilience of making.

Creativity, at its core, is a kind of collage – pulling things together and seeing what happens.

That instinct runs through the work of Matt Dillon, who returns to art with a loose, intuitive approach shaped as much by life as by training. Drawing on time spent in Senegal while filming The Fence with Claire Denis, the paintings layer abstraction with fragments of landscape, architecture, and lived experience.

Unpolished and open-ended, the works feel less like statements and more like accumulations – images built through instinct, memory, and a quietly restless way of looking.

Apr 23 – May 23, 2026

Newton Foundation, Berlin

Intermezzo. Revisiting Helmut Newton introduces a new, more immersive way to encounter the work and world of Helmut Newton. Expanding on the long-running presentation of Helmut Newton’s Private Property, the exhibition rethinks how the photographer’s legacy is experienced.

At its center is a dedicated film room, where multiple projections unfold a layered portrait of Newton’s life and practice. Through moving image and first-hand accounts from collaborators and contemporaries, the exhibition shifts from static display to something more atmospheric – a closer, more personal encounter with the artist behind the lens.

From Apr 24, 2026

Luis De Jesus, Los Angeles

Recent work by Nicolas Grenier continues his exploration of painting as a system of construction. Working with structured compositions and layered color, the paintings sit somewhere between image and architecture, where form is built through accumulation rather than gesture.

There is a measured precision to the work, but also a sense of movement as shapes shift and interlock across the surface. Rooted in ideas of space, design, and visual language, the paintings read as both formal exercises and open-ended frameworks.

Apr 25 – Jun 6, 2026

Luis De Jesus, Los Angeles

The Drops presents a new body of work by Melissa Huddleston, centered on process, surface, and control. Built through layered pours of paint, the compositions settle into fluid, marbled forms where color and density shift subtly across each canvas.

The works balance precision and unpredictability, resisting overt gesture in favor of a slower, more measured approach. Installed within the gallery’s minimal space, they reward close looking, where detail emerges over time.

Apr 25 – Jun 6, 2026

LACMA, Los Angeles

The opening of the David Geffen Galleries marks a significant new chapter for Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Designed by Peter Zumthor, the building introduces a more fluid approach to display, bringing works from different periods and disciplines into a continuous, open framework.

Defined by natural light and uninterrupted sightlines, the galleries shift the experience from fixed viewing to movement through space. Rather than following a prescribed path, the installation encourages a more intuitive way of encountering both the architecture and the collection.

David Zwirner, Los Angeles

Notes from LA brings together paintings and works on paper by Raymond Saunders (1934–2025), marking a return to Los Angeles more than a decade after his last dedicated presentation in the city. Curated by Ebony L. Haynes, the exhibition coincides with his inclusion in Photography and the Black Arts Movement, 1955–1985 at the Getty Center.

Rooted in his years in California, where he lived, worked, and taught, the works reflect Saunders’s distinctive visual language – layered, direct, and deeply informed by both studio practice and pedagogy. For him, teaching and making were inseparable, each shaping a body of work that reads as both personal expression and open-ended inquiry.

David Kordansky, Los Angeles

Love Letters presents new paintings by Hilary Pecis, turning toward the quiet, sustaining moments of everyday life. Known for her vivid still lifes, interiors, and distinctly Californian landscapes, Pecis builds a world where the familiar feels charged with meaning.

Here, scenes of daily routine sit alongside more personal markers – a friend’s studio window, a Bay Area yacht club sign, a collection of race medals – each rendered with her signature saturated palette. Moving fluidly between observation and memory, the works read as small acts of attention, held together by a sense of affection that feels both intimate and expansive.

May 16 – Jun 20, 2026

Canada Gallery, New York

Beautiful Rejects sees Anke Weyer return to her own archive, reworking a cache of unfinished canvases left dormant for over a decade. Rather than discard them, Weyer paints directly over these earlier efforts, folding past and present into a single surface.

The result is both reflective and forward-moving – a revisiting of forms, colors, and instincts that trace the evolution of her practice. What emerges is less a resolution than a rediscovery: paintings that carry the weight of time while remaining open, intuitive, and full of energy.

Apr 3  – May 9, 2026

Modern Art, Paris

Problems and other stories presents new work by Collier Schorr, marking her first exhibition in Paris. Bringing together photographs, collages, drawings, notes, and video made over the past seven years, the show continues Schorr’s ongoing exploration of gender, sexuality, and identity.

Across four decades, Schorr has consistently unsettled fixed ideas of desire, masculinity, and nationhood. Here, her focus turns toward kinship, embodiment, and the spaces people inhabit – asking who images are for, and how they hold the complexities of lived experience.

Pace Gallery, New York

Chuck Close: On Paper brings together a wide-ranging selection of works by Chuck Close, from large-scale watercolors and Polaroids to drawings, maquettes, and prints, highlighting the central role paper played across his practice.

Since the 1970s, Close became known for his rigorous approach to portraiture, translating photographic images into meticulously gridded compositions. Working against the prevailing currents of Minimalism, Pop art, and abstraction, he reasserted portraiture as a conceptual field – methodical, exacting, and quietly radical.

Mar 12 – Apr 25, 2026

Gagosian, New York

Painting with Scattered Brushstrokes revisits the work of Roy Lichtenstein, bringing together key paintings, sculpture, and works on paper from the 1970s and ’80s drawn from the Lichtenstein Family Collection. Centered on the brushstroke as both image and idea, the exhibition traces one of the artist’s most iconic motifs.

First explored in the mid-1960s, Lichtenstein’s brushstrokes transform the expressive gesture of painting into something precise, graphic, and self-aware. Flattened into bold contours and blocks of color, they playfully echo the spontaneity of Abstract Expressionism while questioning notions of authorship, style, and originality.

Mar 19 – Apr 25, 2026

David Kordansky Gallery, Los Angeles

Spanning 1982 to 2015, the exhibition pairs Woodman’s exuberant ceramic sculptures with Murray’s iconic shaped canvases, revealing a shared impulse to blur the line between painting and object. Both artists treat the wall as an active partner, using color, form, and space to dissolve the boundaries between two and three dimensions while reimagining the domestic and architectural language of art.

Mar 19 – Apr 25, 2026

Bowman Hal, Madrid

In a new body of work, Paul McCarthy collaborates with Lilith Stangenberg to explore the uneasy terrain where power, desire, and performance intersect. Drawing loosely on The Night Porter by Liliana Cavani, the project unfolds through film, performance, and drawing sessions in which identities shift and collide—Adolf and Eva, Adam and Eve, father and daughter—probing the psychological structures that linger beneath history and culture.

Opens Mar 6, 2026

Karma, New York

In the paintings of Tamo Jugeli, composition begins not at the center but at the margins. Her abstractions radiate inward from gestures made along the edge of the canvas – a starting point that leaves the boundaries deliberately open, as if each painting might continue beyond itself.

Working directly in oil without preparatory studies, Jugeli responds instinctively to earlier marks and tonal shifts as the work unfolds. The large-scale abstractions in From 5 to 7, created over the past year for parallel presentations at Karma and Polina Berlin Gallery, form two distinct yet connected bodies of work. Shapes reappear across the canvases, subtly shifting with each iteration – less recurring motifs than what the artist describes as “muscle memory.”

Mar 18 – Apr 30, 2026

Luis De Jesus, Los Angeles

Allá Afuera (Out There) introduces new work by Joshua Nazario Lugo, marking the artist’s first solo exhibition outside Puerto Rico. Developed during a residency in Santa Monica, the presentation brings together recent paintings and sculptures shaped by reflections on identity, memory, and the cultural rhythms of Puerto Rico and its diaspora.

A self-taught, multidisciplinary artist, Nazario Lugo works with an instinctive energy – bold brushwork, tactile materials, and palettes that move between primary tones and the lush greens of tropical landscapes. The result is work that feels both immediate and personal, grounded in lived experience yet open to wider cultural echoes.

Mar 14 – Apr 11, 2026

Regan Projects, Los Angeles

Curtains brings together new drawings and sculptures by Jack Pierson, continuing his long-running exploration of language, nostalgia, and the elusive search for beauty.

At the center of the exhibition are Pierson’s signature word sculptures – phrases assembled from salvaged vintage signage gathered over decades. Arranged into charged fragments such as HOMOS ONLY and PURE BEING, the works hover between humor and existential reflection, their weathered letters carrying a quiet sense of memory, longing, and shared meaning.

Mar 12 – Apr 18, 2026

The Hole, New York

A special solo exhibition by Minneapolis-based Nick Dahlen turns its focus to the quiet theater of daily city life. Known for paintings that hover between observation and imagination, Dahlen captures street corners, neighborhood characters, and small urban details – from a giant pencil jar to a wandering “trash cat” – with the loose immediacy of a sketch.

Drawing on influences that range from Giorgio de Chirico and Fernand Léger to Tarsila do Amaral, his scenes blend surreal atmosphere with geometric clarity. Rendered in muted, retro-tinged palettes reminiscent of 1970s design or Joan Miró, the works evoke a city just outside of time – a moment before phones, when everyday gestures carried their own quiet drama.

Mar 13 – Apr 25, 2026

Gagosian, New York

Helen Frankenthaler: The Moment and the Distance surveys four decades of painting by Helen Frankenthaler, bringing together more than twenty of her largest and most ambitious canvases from 1960 to 1992. Organized in collaboration with the Helen Frankenthaler Foundation, the exhibition traces the artist’s continual reinvention of abstraction through monumental scale, sensuous color, and fluid composition.

Its title comes from a 1975 essay by poet Barbara Guest, who described Frankenthaler’s work as balancing “freedom with restraint, extravagance with discipline.” Seen across decades, the paintings reveal an expansive, lyrical practice in which gesture, color, and space unfold with both immediacy and distance.

Apr 30 – Jul 2, 2026

Kunstmuseum Den Haag, The Hague

A major retrospective at the Kunstmuseum Den Haag reflects on four decades of collaboration between photography duo Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin. Since the early 1990s, the pair have pushed photography into new territory, among the first to harness digital imaging as a creative tool while developing a signature style that blends visual seduction with provocative narrative.

Working fluidly between art and fashion, Inez and Vinoodh have shaped the visual language of contemporary image culture – from editorials for Vogue, The New York Times Magazine, and W Magazine, to campaigns and films for houses including Chanel, Gucci, and Louis Vuitton. Their influence also extends into film and music, with videos created for artists such as Lady Gaga, Björk, and Rihanna.

Mar 21 – Sep 6, 2026

Glass Slipper marks the first solo exhibition in France by Los Angeles–based Ariana Papademetropoulos. Spanning painting, sculpture, and installation, the presentation centers on an aquarium filled with a shoal of fish, drawing viewers into a dreamlike environment where lush landscapes and psychological interiors quietly collide.

Vintage payphones appear as sculptural elements, inviting visitors to listen in on imagined conversations between the artist and her medium. Meanwhile, Papademetropoulos’s new large-scale paintings – absent of human figures – hum with unseen presences, hovering somewhere between realism and reverie.

Mar 7 – Apr 11, 2026

Ortuzar, New York

Letter to the World introduces the work of Japanese-Brazilian sculptor Megumi Yuasa (b. 1938) in his first exhibition in the United States. Bringing together around thirty works made between the early 1970s and 2025, the presentation traces six decades of Yuasa’s sculptural practice across ceramic, metal, and stone.

From compact early ceramics to vertically oriented constructions that combine clay with iron, steel, and brass, the works chart the evolution of a language grounded in balance, gravity, and quiet transformation. Monumental sculptures such as Personagem Sensível, Tropical, and the early Nuvem anchor the exhibition, while recurring bodies of work like Espássaro and Árvores reveal Yuasa’s long meditation on suspension, weight, and the delicate pull between earth and sky.

Mar 5 – Apr 11, 2026

Marian Goodman Gallery, Paris

All is Portraiture revisits the work of Barkley L. Hendricks (1944–2017), the influential artist who reshaped portraiture through his luminous depictions of Black Americans. Bringing together paintings, photographs, and works on paper, the exhibition – his first solo presentation in Europe – reflects Hendricks’s expansive practice and the attentive gaze that guided it for more than five decades.

Beginning in the late 1960s, Hendricks turned his lens and brush toward friends, neighbors, and strangers encountered on the street, granting visibility and presence to figures rarely centered in the history of portrait painting. Rendered with meticulous attention to clothing, texture, and personal style, his subjects stand confidently against spare backgrounds, their individuality heightened by the artist’s study of masters such as Rembrandt, Anthony van Dyck, Caravaggio, and Jan van Eyck. The result is portraiture that is at once classical and contemporary – images of style, presence, and quiet authority that continue to shape generations of artists today.

Cob Gallery, London

Portraiture has long been the instinctive center of Jack Davison’s practice. Portraits: 14–16 November returns to the human face with renewed focus, setting aside experimentation in favor of a more restrained and intimate approach.

Presented in full, the series gathers ninety portraits made over three days in London, where Davison – working with casting director Coco Wu – street-cast individuals from across the city. Printed using photopolymer gravure, the images carry a tactile depth that bridges photography and printmaking, forming the first chapter in an ongoing exploration of presence, encounter, and the quiet power of the face.

Gagosian, Los Angeles

A new body of tennis court paintings by Jonas Wood debuts in Los Angeles this spring, marking the gallery’s tenth exhibition with the artist and its first presentation of his work in the city. Opening March 12, just ahead of the Academy Awards, the show continues Wood’s long-running fascination with sports as image and structure.

Created in 2025 and 2026, each painting depicts a match from a major Association of Tennis Professionals, Women's Tennis Association, or Olympic tournament. Seen from behind the baseline, the courts unfold in compressed perspective, rendered without players or officials. Instead, crowds appear as rhythmic patterns of brushstrokes, turning the geometry of the game into a quietly abstract field.

March 12 – April 25, 2026

Mariposa, Los Angeles

Mariposa opens its Los Angeles space in the historic Hollywoodland Realty building on Beachwood Drive with a new body of ceramic sculptures by Peter Schlesinger (b. 1948, Los Angeles). The exhibition marks Schlesinger’s first solo presentation in the city in over a decade – and a return to where his artistic life first began.

Across his practice, Schlesinger folds mythology and fable into his forms: octopi, trees, birds, and vessels that nod to ancient archetypes alongside biomorphic, almost dreamlike shapes. Trained initially as a painter, he turned to ceramics in the 1980s after a formative period in London studying at the Slade and photographing cultural figures including Cecil Beaton, Ossie Clark, Amanda Lear, and Andy Warhol. His sculptures carry that lineage forward – balancing modernism and antiquity, bohemian instinct and formal restraint, surface play and sculptural weight.

Tomorrow: Yes fills the vast Paris Pantin space with a full-scale presentation by Erwin Wurm, marking his first solo exhibition to occupy the entire venue. Anchored by two monumental installations – a compressed schoolhouse and a six-metre-tall bent sailing boat – the show leans into Wurm’s talent for destabilizing the familiar.

Spanning marble, bronze, and aluminium, and including works from his participatory One Minute Sculptures, the exhibition gathers many pieces shown here for the first time. Together, they expand sculpture beyond objecthood, bending it toward the abstract and intangible – where humor, distortion, and physical improbability quietly rewrite the rules.

Through Apr 11, 2026

Tate Britain, London

The first major solo exhibition of Hurvin Anderson brings together more than 80 paintings spanning his career – from early student works to new, previously unseen canvases. Across saturated landscapes and interior scenes, Anderson moves between the UK and the Caribbean, tracing a life shaped by migration and inheritance. Born in Birmingham to Jamaican parents, he has long explored questions of belonging, memory, and diaspora. Barbershops, family figures, and layered geographies recur, sometimes collapsing one place into another, underscoring the fragility of recollection and the complexity of cultural identity.

Atmospheric and precise, the paintings draw from the lineage of British landscape while reframing it through lived experience. Together, the exhibition affirms Anderson’s position as one of the defining painters of his generation.

Mar 26 – Aug 23, 2026

MEP, Paris

American Images surveys more than three decades of work by Dana Lixenberg, bringing into focus a deeply human portrait of the United States. Celebrities and everyday individuals are met with the same attentiveness, each rendered with a dignity that resists spectacle.

Born in Amsterdam and arriving in New York in 1989, Lixenberg approaches America with the clarity of an outsider – probing the mythologies of the American Dream while building a photographic language rooted in empathy, trust, and sustained engagement. The result is a quiet but persuasive counter-narrative, one that feels as relevant now as ever.

Feb 11 – May 24, 2026

Karma, New York

In the quietly exacting paintings of Dike Blair, time seems to pause. Windowsills, airport lounges, elevators, and construction sites unfold as tightly framed moments, with recent oils developed over the past two years turning attention toward surfaces, thresholds, and the act of looking itself.

Rather than settle into a single narrative, the works build meaning through repetition and subtle variation – drinks, flowers, screens, and architectural edges echo across compositions, while rectangles stack within rectangles. Interior spaces dominate, pared back and solitary, with art-historical murmurs from Piet Mondrian to Pierre Bonnard. Even a paused frame from La Dolce Vita by Federico Fellini appears as another image-within-an-image – a reminder that for Blair, painting is as much about perception as it is about place.

Feb 19 – Mar 28, 2026

NOON Gallery, Los Angeles

Where there is Great Love there are Always Great Miracles brings together sculptures, paintings, and drawings by David Shull, marking the artist’s third exhibition with the gallery. Begun in 2002 and developed over two decades, the works reflect Shull’s sustained interest in sentimentality, intimacy, and the quiet sincerity of everyday materials.

Balancing tenderness with a subtle wit, familiar objects are recast as vessels for memory and emotional charge. The exhibition is accompanied by a book created with Jack Doroshow, whose handwritten contributions extend the project into a narrative shaped by friendship, exchange, and shared sensibility.

Jeffrey Deitch, Los Angeles

Two previously unseen bodies of photographic work by Paige Powell offer a rare, close-range view of her friend and longtime associate Andy Warhol. Private Andy: Religious Services gathers intimate photographs and ephemera from the mid-1980s, revealing a quieter, deeply human dimension of Warhol alongside the social and spiritual circles he moved through.

Drawn from Powell’s personal archive, the exhibition centers on two series – PRIVATE ANDY, Double Exposures (1987) and Religious Services, Volunteering at The Episcopal Church of Heavenly Rest, New York City (1986). Together, they trace a portrait rarely seen: less icon, more inner life.

Feb 20 – Apr 4, 2026

Jeffrey Deitch, Los Angeles

The Being introduces a new immersive installation by Italian-born Marco Perego, whose multidisciplinary practice spans video, installation, and drawing. Built from a network of sensory elements – screen, sound, scent, and responsive architectural surfaces – the work behaves less like an object and more like a living system. Observing and reacting to each visitor, the installation captures facial expressions, shifts with emotional states, and pulses in rhythm with real-time solar data. When the space is empty, it intensifies; when viewers enter and attune to one another, image, light, and even the scent of petrichor emerge. Suspended between cosmic time and the immediacy of the body, The Being gestures toward a shared consciousness – one that quietly exceeds the limits of a single human life.

Feb 20 – Apr 4, 2026

Pace Gallery, Tokyo

Robert Nava brings his first solo exhibition in Japan to Tokyo this spring, unveiling new paintings and works on paper created between 2023 and 2026. The presentation draws viewers into fantastical terrains where beauty and chaos coexist – and where the boundless logic of childhood imagination quietly resurfaces.

Populated by angels, witches, hybrid creatures, and otherworldly presences, Nava’s compositions pulse with electric color while carrying an undercurrent of philosophical weight. At once playful and existential, the works resist easy categorization, landing somewhere between figuration and abstraction with a raw, intuitive energy that feels both inviting and faintly disquieting.

Feb 19 – Apr 1, 2026

Pace Gallery, Los Angeles

New paintings by Los Angeles–based Lauren Quin debut this winter, marking her first solo exhibition with Pace since joining the gallery in 2025. Created over the past eighteen months, the work signals a deliberate rupture in Quin’s practice – a move away from chromatic excess toward what she describes as a “detox of color.” A fully illustrated catalogue will accompany the exhibition, featuring a new text by Ariana Reines.

At a glance, the canvases hover near monochrome, but closer looking reveals dense tonal blacks and greys edged by fugitive traces of color – hues that linger like afterimages rather than declarations. Familiar symbols dissolve into these atmospheres, suggesting a quieter, more restrained language in which color is less an event than a memory.

Jan 31 – Mar 28, 2026

David Kordansky Gallery, New York

Shadowland brings together paintings, photo collages, and a mural by Odili Donald Odita, alongside two works from the 1970s by his father, Okechukwu Emmanuel Odita. On view in New York from January 15 through February 28, 2026, the exhibition marks a layered second solo presentation that folds past and present into a shared creative lineage.

Moving across current, historical, and inherited bodies of work, Shadowland traces the evolution of Odita’s formal language while situating it within familial and geopolitical histories. At its core, the exhibition wrestles with enduring questions of power – how it is seen, shaped, and reclaimed – while positioning painting itself as a space for connection across generations, borders, and lived experience.

Through Feb 28, 2026

National Portrait Gallery, London

Lucian Freud: Drawing into Painting is the UK’s most comprehensive exhibition devoted to the artist’s works on paper, pairing rarely seen drawings with a focused selection of paintings. Long celebrated for his unflinching portraits, Freud approached drawing as both foundation and parallel practice.

On view at the National Portrait Gallery, the show traces his enduring preoccupation with the human face and figure while introducing twelve newly acquired works from the estate – including the museum’s first Freud etchings and a portrait of his daughter, Bella Freud.

12 Feb – 4 May, 2026

Gallery 33, Los Angeles

Presents 20/26: A Periodic Table of Consequence, Irrelevance, and Midlife Slices, an exhibition by Danny Minnick, spanning work made between 2020 and 2026.

Part time capsule, part work-in-motion, 20/26 frames a turbulent stretch of recent history through Minnick’s lived experience – family, sobriety, art, and the steady churn of the world outside. Raised in Seattle, shaped by skate culture, and forged in Los Angeles, Minnick’s practice has always been about movement, recovery, and forward momentum. His work resists stasis – and resists automation – with a stubbornly human energy. The recurring “Character,” all bone, will, and resolve, stands as an antidote to artificial intelligence and the creeping erosion of presence.

From pandemic solitude to new arrivals – a wife, a daughter – and less welcome ones, Minnick pulls meaning from the noise. Playful, defiant, and reflective, 20/26 reads as a life in progress: messy, hopeful, and very much alive. Don’t ask ChatGPT. Ask Danny.

Zvibereko zvemweya wangu, its third solo exhibition with Portia Zvavahera, on view at the gallery’s 606 N Western Avenue location in Los Angeles. Featuring a new series of paintings, the exhibition extends Zvavahera’s ongoing experiments with process and narrative, weaving her carefully charted dream worlds into the textures of lived experience – daily rituals, memory, and the quiet intensity of belief.

In these new works, familiar motifs return with fresh charge. Symbolic creatures move through the compositions as spiritual messengers – conduits for vision, reflection, and the larger questions that sit between the sacred and the everyday.

Through Feb 7, 2026

Camden Art Centre, London

Following his win of Camden Art Centre’s Emerging Artist Award at Frieze in 2024, London-based Nat Faulkner presents his first major UK institutional exhibition.

Spanning the Central Space and Gallery 3, the show introduces new works that deepen Faulkner’s ongoing relationship with analogue photography – where the studio becomes both darkroom and testing ground, hovering in the work as a kind of spectral collaborator. Titled Strong water – a nod to aqua fortis, the Latin name for nitric acid – the exhibition leans into the artist’s fascination with chemistry, process, and transformation.

In the opening room, iodine and light take center stage: two foundational forces in photography’s early history. Contained in bespoke vessels, an iodine solution stains the space in a warm, orange cast as daylight pours down through the Victorian skylights, turning the gallery itself into an image-in-progress.

Karma, Los Angeles

In ABC, Henni Alftan presents twenty-six drawings, each keyed to a letter of the Roman alphabet. Set against flat, monochromatic grounds, familiar objects hover in isolation – A for aspirin and ants, B for Band-Aids, buttons, and buckles, and so on – forming a quiet, methodical visual lexicon.

Bound by the scale of the paper itself, Alftan limits her selections to objects that could physically fit within each roughly ten-by-eight-inch sheet. Working inside this tight frame, ABC opens onto larger questions of pictorial space and illusion, of order and hierarchy, and of how images and words shape one another. The result is restrained, precise, and gently conceptual – an alphabet built through looking.

Jan 17 – Feb 14, 2026

David Kordansky Gallery, Los Angeles

Precious Moments, a new exhibition by Sayre Gomez, marking his first solo show with the gallery. On view from January 16 to March 1, 2026, the exhibition unfolds across all three Los Angeles spaces, bringing together new paintings, sculpture, and video.

Known for his sharp eye on American urban life, Gomez turns his focus back to Los Angeles – its surfaces, symbols, and contradictions. Large-scale photorealistic paintings sit alongside meticulously crafted objects and new moving-image work, tracing questions of memory, authenticity, and how history is absorbed in the present tense. Precious Moments pushes this inquiry closer to home, reflecting on how his children navigate a landscape saturated with the imagery of late capitalism, and how those encounters reshape his own way of seeing. The result is Gomez’s most expansive statement to date – critical and romantic, precise yet open, reading the built environment as both personal archive and cultural mirror.

Jan 16 – Mar 1, 2026

Art Institute Chicago

Over seven decades, Lucas Samaras built a practice unlike anyone else’s. Working across photography, sculpture, and drawing, he repeatedly turned inward, using his own body and personal belongings as both subject and material.

This exhibition centers on Samaras’s radical photographic work, where performance, self-image, and technical experimentation collide. Using instant Polaroid film – prized for its privacy and autonomy – he worked alone, at home, without a darkroom or intermediaries. But rather than accept the medium’s limits, Samaras pushed it to extremes, physically manipulating the pigments to distort his body, merge figure and space, and remake the image from the inside out.

Philadelphia Museum of Art

Noah Davis set out, in his own words, “to represent the people around me.” Born in Seattle in 1983, he made Los Angeles his home, developing a practice that portrayed contemporary Black life with tenderness, clarity, and care. This major retrospective expands beyond painting to include collage, found photography, sculpture, early web projects, and the vision that ultimately led him to found his own museum.

The exhibition makes its final stop at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, following an international tour with DAS MINSK, the Barbican, and the Hammer Museum. Key works include 40 Acres and a Unicorn, Isis, Savage Wilds, and the celebrated Pueblo del Rio series – paintings that anchor Davis’s legacy in place, history, and lived experience.

Gagosian, London

Marking 40 years since the publication of The Ballad of Sexual Dependency, an upcoming exhibition at Gagosian’s Davies Street space presents all 126 photographs from the original book – shown together for the first time in the UK. Described by Nan Goldin as “the diary I let people read,” the work lands with the same raw intimacy that made it seismic on first release.

Shot in the thick of New York’s downtown scene in the 1970s and 80s, the images capture a world of sex, drugs, punk, and chosen family, while also cementing a visual language that would ripple through generations of photographers. Seen in full, The Ballad of Sexual Dependency reads less like history and more like lived experience – urgent, unfiltered, and still very much alive.

Pace Gallery, Berlin

Lynch-heads in Berlin, take note. A new exhibition at Pace Gallery brings together paintings, sculptures, early short films, and photographs by the late David Lynch, many taken during his visits to the German capital. It’s a tight, atmospheric look at Lynch beyond the director’s chair – one that foregrounds the fact that he always understood himself as a visual artist first.

Having studied painting at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in the late 1960s, Lynch carried that sensibility across every medium he touched. This Berlin presentation – a prelude to a larger exhibition opening later this year at Pace’s Los Angeles space – traces the connective tissue between his images and ideas, revealing a singular, idiosyncratic world that refuses to stay in just one form.

Jan 29, 2026 – Mar 22, 2026

Jeu de Paume, Paris

From the 1970s until his death in December last year, Martin Parr trained his lens on the everyday theatre of modern life – its oddities, contradictions, and quiet absurdities. As framed by Jeu de Paume in Paris, this expansive presentation brings together around 180 photographs made across continents, tracing Parr’s sharp eye for the small moments that reveal much bigger truths.

Shot with humour, precision, and a healthy dose of irony, the works lay bare the inequalities of a globalised world and the excesses of contemporary living. It’s Parr at his best – playful on the surface, incisive underneath, and relentlessly attentive to the strange ways we move through the world.

The Last Dyes, an exhibition of new dye-transfer prints by William Eggleston, on view at the gallery’s 533 West 19th Street space in New York. A pioneer of color photography, Eggleston began working with the dye-transfer process in the 1970s – a meticulous, richly saturated analog technique that became inseparable from the way his images were first seen.

As the title suggests, these works mark the end of the line. They are the final photographs ever printed by Eggleston using this process, and together form the last major body of dye-transfer prints to be produced at all. It’s a rare chance to encounter these images exactly as they were originally intended – lush, exacting, and quietly radical.

Regen Projects, Los Angeles

Regen Projects presents Keep Movin’, Wolfgang Tillmans’s ninth solo exhibition with the gallery since 1995. Arriving after a major year of institutional shows – from the Centre Pompidou in Paris to the Albertinum in Dresden, plus the 36th Bienal de São Paulo – the exhibition pulls focus back to the core of Tillmans’s practice. New photographs, videos, sculptural installations, and an expanded Truth Study Center come together in a loose, searching constellation.

At its heart, Keep Movin’ traces how Tillmans’s visual language has shifted over time – always grounded in the physical world, yet open to the sociopolitical, sensual, and spiritual undercurrents that run through his work. It’s less about resolution and more about staying in motion – looking closely, questioning often, and letting images breathe.

David Kordansky, Los Angeles

PILINGS brings together a new series of paintings and drawings by Michael Williams, anchored by seven interconnected canvases that treat the studio as both setting and subject – its objects, light and idle questions all folded into the mix.

Familiar items – a table, a golf bag, a co-op ID, a chair – surface in shifting arrangements within a lavender-peach-grey palette. Each painting loops back to the last, absorbing earlier images into new compositions that hover between recognition and abstraction as Williams follows his own intuitive, restless mark-making.

Nov 7, 2025 – Dec 13, 2025

Kunsthalle Krems, Austria

In this museum debut in Austria, Joe Bradley brings a sweeping selection of nearly 90 recent works to Kunsthalle Krems — paintings, drawings, and sculptures that move freely between figuration and abstraction. The New York–based artist’s practice has always lived in that charged in-between space, and this presentation offers a sharp, expansive look at how his vocabulary continues to evolve.

Vielmatter, Los Angeles

In Your Tears Will Dry, Kiriakos Tompolidis channels the disorienting, energizing shift of relocating from Berlin to Mexico City. The works fold in the city’s color, flora, and everyday textures, shaping portraits that hover between memory and observation. Known for navigating the space between cultures, Tompolidis offers scenes where displacement and recognition sit side by side — figures held within environments rendered with a meticulous, almost tender attention to detail.

Mai 36 Gallery, Zurich

In Sensible Shoes, Roe Ethridge leans into the messy, magnetic space where the everyday blurs with the staged, the personal with the commercial. Long known for erasing the borders between fine art and editorial work, he brings a new body of images to Mai 36 Galerie for his fourth solo outing – pictures that read as both sly and sincere, a quietly funny but sharp look at how we make and consume images today.

The paintings in California Dreaming open up Guidi’s world in expansive new ways. She treats landscape not as backdrop but as emotion – layering atmosphere, detail and memory until the image almost vibrates. The material weight that has anchored her work for fifteen years remains, now paired with a softer, dream-soaked curiosity that signals a clear new chapter.

Through Dec 13, 2025

Lisson Gallery, New York

The gallery is pleased to present Tower, a solo exhibition by acclaimed painter Sean Scully, bringing together three interlinked bodies of work. The new Tower paintings mark a striking shift – a bold unravelling of his own language – each built from a stack of smaller panels that feel pulled from different styles and past moments in his practice, reassembled into something entirely new.

The first Italian retrospective devoted to American painter Alice Neel (1900–1984) casts fresh light on one of the 20th century’s most essential voices. Alice Neel. I Am the Century, curated by Sarah Cosulich and Pietro Rigolo, frames her radical, human-first vision – a body of work defined by curiosity, empathy and an unwavering commitment to portraying people in all their complexity.

Karma Gallery, New York

The Figure is the first full-scale survey of Milton Avery’s figurative paintings, spanning from the 1920s – when he arrived in New York – through 1964, the year he completed his final canvases. His wife, Sally Michel, once described their home as a revolving door of artists, relatives, models and friends of friends, all deep in conversation about painting while Avery sat quietly sketching them one by one. That ever-changing cast, she noted, became the wellspring of his subjects.

The Design Museum, London

This landmark exhibition traces the evolution of Wes Anderson’s films – from his early ’90s experiments to the richly built worlds of his more recent productions, along with the collaborators who’ve shaped them. It opens up the design stories behind some of his most iconic titles, including The Grand Budapest Hotel, The Wonderful Story of Henry Sugar, Fantastic Mr. Fox and Isle of Dogs.

The Taylor Wessing Photo Portrait Prize brings together a sharp mix of young photographers, gifted amateurs and seasoned pros – a snapshot of the best in contemporary portraiture. The competition celebrates images that carry stories, from formal commissioned portraits to quick, intimate moments with friends and family. Many of the works are being shown for the first time, offering a wide sweep of styles and moods – classic to contemporary, tender to theatrical – all capturing the endlessly shifting possibilities of the photographic portrait.

11.13.25 – 02.08.26

Regen Projects, Los Angeles

Marilyn Minter’s fourth solo show with the gallery brings together four distinct but connected groups of paintings – large-scale portraits, the Odalisque series, the After Guston works and a set of her signature magnified mouths. Her hyperrealist approach both subverts and nods to the history of portraiture, folding in decades of technical refinement with an unmistakably personal connection to her subjects and artistic influences.

11.06.25 – 12.20.25

Hauser & Wirth, Los Angeles

As the first major Los Angeles exhibition devoted to Lee Lozano, Hard Handshake gathers more than one hundred drawings from 1959 to 1968. Made at a blistering pace and in a range of styles, these works channel Lozano’s unsparing eye and dry humor – pulling apart ideas around gender, ownership and the commodification of art while poking at the very structure of everyday life.

Morán Morán, Paris

Few artists captured the slow crumble of the American empire quite like Dash Snow. As a graffiti kid turned photographer, zine-maker, collagist, sculptor and unapologetic downtown bon vivant, he turned the early-millennium mood of looming collapse into raw material – tapping the dark, absurd poetry of an era obsessed with dictators, drugs, fallen celebrities, serial killers, terrorists, immigrants and assorted misfits.

This Will Not End Well marks the first exhibition devoted to Nan Goldin’s work as a filmmaker. The Italy edition brings together the largest group of her slideshows ever shown at once – joined by two additional works on view in a museum for the first time in Europe – plus a new commission, an immersive sound installation that deepens the emotional charge of Goldin’s world.

Cranbrook Art Museum, Michigan

The brothers’ work is dense, tactile and delightfully unhinged – a rush of invention shaped by what they jokingly call their “problem-solving fantasies.” Their characters, creatures and alternate worlds feel like extensions of a shared imagination, filtered through the pop culture and early-tech aesthetics they grew up with in the ’90s and early 2000s.

Vielmetter, Los Angeles

Yunhee Min’s new suite of small-scale paintings reflects her ongoing interest in optical phenomena, transient light, and in capturing a sense of emergence. Each piece meditates on the passage of time, translating atmospheric impressions, sounds, memories, and observations into heavily saturated, tonal and near-translucent fields of color. Through Min’s deft grasp of the interactions between color, form, and opacity, the compositions seem to vibrate and flicker as layers of paint meander in and out of visibility.

11.01.25 – 12.20.25

The Pit, Los Angeles

The exhibition title Earth Canal plays on the idea of the “birth canal,” reflecting humanity’s painful, collective passage through a transformative moment. Carved from redwood and stone, cast in bronze, and occasionally adorned with gold leaf, Schneider’s works are at once primordial and contemporary, evoking the timeless presence of ancient idols while resonating with today’s cultural anxieties.

Simple handmade paintings, drawings, and collages dating from 2018 to 2023 and five sculptures dating from 2007 to 2025. No magic. No mystery. No magical mystery tours. Hobo smokestack buckteeth and scarred upper lips exhaling chimney clouds of Lucky Strikes drifting over broken-down houses sitting in fields of exaggerated flowers, thousand-yard stares, cardboard caskets, and Mt. Rushmore weeds.

Circles, Spokes, Zigzags, Rivers brings together nine recent paintings and a large-scale sculpture by Grace Rosario Perkins (b. 1986; Santa Fe, New Mexico; Akimel O’odham/Diné). The title of the exhibition describes petroglyphs that connect the artist’s family to her tribal homelands in the southwestern United States, including the vital, yet threatened, waters of the Gila River and Rio Grande. The influence of such longstanding technologies of visual storytelling is evident in Perkins’s symbol-rich art. Flowers, stars, the sun, and spider webs are given significant presence within the systems the artist creates to record her life.

“I loved art before I loved poetry,” said poet, activist, and painter John Giorno (1936–2019). A fixture of the New York art and literary scenes of the 1960s, Giorno is widely noted for his encounters—intellectual, social, and sexual—with figures like poet Allen Ginsberg, writer William S. Burroughs, and painters Jasper Johns and Robert Rauschenberg, detailed in his posthumous memoir Great Demon Kings: A Memoir of Poetry, Sex, Art, Death, and Enlightenment (2020).

David Zwirner is pleased to present an exhibition of new drawings and prints by iconic illustrator and cartoonist R. Crumb (b. 1943), on view at the gallery’s 616 N Western Avenue location in Los Angeles. In his works of the last several years Crumb reflects on life in his eighties and his sixty-year career as well as themes of personal and mass paranoia during these times of social and political unrest. Crumb’s most mordant attacks are, as always, reserved for himself and show him contending with his own manic anxieties in a humorous and insightful manner.

This focused presentation brings together eight monumental works spanning Gertsch’s career, elucidating the ways in which he transformed photographic imagery into hyperrealist paintings and woodcuts. What appears at first glance to be a project of exacting replication emerges instead as a deeply investigative practice—one that enshrines the poetry of fugitive moments through a disciplined material language. Gertsch’s work stands as a testament to his relentless pursuit of a new way to represent reality by challenging the very boundaries of realism.

The Stedelijk presents the first major retrospective of Karel Martens (1939), one of the Netherlands’ most influential post-war graphic designers, renowned for his inventiveness, and for his playful and experimental approach. Karel Martens trained and inspired younger generations of designers in the Netherlands and internationally. The exhibition is a journey of discovery through the oeuvre that Martens created over 65 years—from his adventurous lettering on buildings, to books, typography, postage stamps, telephone cards, and wallpaper.

Hammer Museum, Los Angeles

Made in L.A. 2025 is the seventh iteration of the Hammer’s signature biennial exhibition that showcases artists practicing throughout the greater Los Angeles area. The 28 participants in the exhibition present work not only made in the city but also grounded in its complex and unfolding terrain. Neither myth nor monolith, Los Angeles is many things to many people, and its dissonance is perhaps its most distinguishing feature. The works presented in this year’s biennial include film, painting, theater, choreography, photography, sculpture, sound, and video. Attitude draws them together: Each engages with this city in ways alternately literal, formal, material, and metaphoric. Conceived or made in Los Angeles, they are of this city and nowhere else.

White Columns, New York

White Columns is pleased to present I AM SHEE, a solo exhibition by the artist and musician Amy Sheffer(b. 1944, Richmond, VA.) The exhibition has been organized in collaboration with RVNG Intl., the eclectic and consistently innovative New York-based music institution. A visual artist, composer and musician, Sheffer resides in Great Neck, Long Island, where she continues to make vivid, quasi-surrealist paintings inflected with a distinct lyricism. In her multilayered compositions, Sheffer combines dreamlike motifs teeming with scenes of wild and domestic animals, bodily forms and the artist herself, all suffused with the sense of a dense, ecstatic psychological realm that threatens to spill over into the world of the mundane. Sheffer’s visual artwork has primarily been shown in the context of musical happenings and performances. Her exhibition at White Columns is the artist’s first solo show in New York.

Royal Academy, London

Internationally acclaimed artist Kerry James Marshall is one of the most important painters working right now.

His vivid and mostly large-scale paintings place the Black figure front and centre. Marshall builds upon the Western tradition of history painting and makes visible those people who were so noticeably absent in the works that came before him.

09.20.25 – 03.29.26

Karma, Los Angeles

Each blade indexes a single flick of Calvin Marcus’s brush; these marks accumulate into the densely patterned surfaces of his Grass Paintings. While representational, these compositions are neither grounded in scene, nor focal point, nor perspective; they are nonhierarchical in their treatment of a motif synonymous, in the United States, with conformity. Calling to mind carefully bordered yards, soccer fields, and other overlooked elements of the modern developed landscape, the Grass Paintings continue Marcus’s investigations into symbolic and formal reverberations of the banal. 

09.20.25 – 11.01.25

Jeffrey Deitch, Los Angeles

Jeffrey Deitch and Company Gallery are pleased to announce It Smells Like Girl, a thematic group exhibition co-organized by the two galleries that revisits the charged and often misunderstood concept of female hysteria through painting, video, sculpture, performance, screenings, and installation. Historically dismissed as a medical diagnosis, hysteria was less a pathology than a social mirror reflecting the anxieties, fears, and fantasies projected onto women’s bodies. Weaponized to silence and contain, this machination persists today, not as a medical term, but as an undercurrent in the contemporary cultural psyche. Its echoes can be found in the emotional labor demanded, the expectations imposed, and the subtle systems that still seek to regulate affect and embodiment.

09.06.26 – 11.01.25

Lisson Gallery, Los Angeles

In the first major exhibition in Los Angeles dedicated to the art of Hélio Oiticica (1937–1980), Lisson Gallery presents a selection of the artist’s seminal compositions, including vibrant gouaches, and dynamic suspended sculptures, and a rare oil painting. Highlighting the formative years of Oiticica’s career, the exhibition charts his trajectory from early geometric abstraction to immersive environments that transformed the viewer’s experience with art and space.

09.17.25 – 11.01.25

Regan Projects, Los Angeles

Regen Projects is pleased to present #34, Los Angeles-based artist Rebecca Morris’s first solo exhibition with the gallery and the thirty-fourth of her career. Over the past thirty years Morris has established a sophisticated visual lexicon to expand the limits and possibilities of non-objective abstraction in painting. As Hamza Walker has written, “Rebecca Morris’s commitment to abstraction lies somewhere between the poles of fierce and rabid, a prerequisite for coping with a pluralism arising not only from across disciplines but from within the discipline of painting itself.”

09.13.25 – 10.25.25

Pace Gallery, New York

Roversi’s upcoming exhibition with Pace in New York—his first solo show with the gallery since 2019—will present an overview of his storied career through a selection of photographs created over the past 35 years.“Every portrait is a meeting, an exchange, a mutual intimate confession,” Roversi has said of his work. The show will shed light on Roversi’s legacy as the artist behind some of the most iconic fashion images of our time.

09.12.25 – 10.25.25

Good Mother Gallery, Los Angeles

Good Mother Gallery is pleased to present The Chase Scene, a solo exhibition of new paintings by San Francisco based artist Chad Hasegawa. Known for his bold abstractions that fuse precision with intensity, Hasegawa brings hard-edge minimalism into dialogue with atmosphere, emotion, and movement. With The Chase Scene, he turns painting into an exploration of momentum itself, transforming color and form into meditations on pursuit, suspension, and release.

OCHI is pleased to present Visual Snow, a two-person exhibition of new works by Omaha-based artist Casey Callahan and New York-based artist Jack Ryan. This will be the inaugural presentation at OCHI’s new Melrose Hill gallery location. Visual Snow will be on view at 605 N. Western Avenue in Los Angeles

Visual snow syndrome is a neurological condition characterized by persistent perceptual aberrations in the form of tiny, shimmering dots across a subject’s field of vision. While the exact cause is unknown, research suggests it may be related to increased excitability in the visual cortex. It is theorized that VSS is a strategy of neurological resistance, generating optical information in response to stress or sensual deprivation.

Music + Life captures the spirit of some of the most pivotal moments in 20th-century culture, from the soulful vibrancy of reggae to the rebellious energy of punk. Morris provides a rare glimpse into the lives of legendary musicians, revealing the trust and connection he forged with his subjects. His candid photographs of Bob Marley, both on stage and off, along with the raw, chaotic world of the Sex Pistols, illustrate his unique ability to capture the personalities behind the music.

Museum of the City of New York

New York’s age of graffiti began on the city streets in the early 1970s. This new movement, often consciously artistic despite its unsanctioned origins, came of age over the next 20 years. Above Ground centers on the many artists who transitioned from illegally writing on subway cars to creating paintings on canvas and exhibiting in galleries and museums. Their works embody an important transitional moment for the movement’s evolution, as it permeated into broader consciousness and significantly influenced global culture.

Jeffrey Gibson: the space in which to place me is a kaleidoscopic special exhibition filled with vibrant colors, intricate beadwork, towering sculptures, and powerful storytelling, all reflecting the artist’s radical vision for a future in which all people are seen, accepted, and loved. The show comes to The Broad directly from the 60th Venice Biennale (2024), one of the most prestigious exhibitions of visual art in the world, where Gibson made history as the first Indigenous artist to represent the United States with a solo show at the US Pavilion.

NOON Projects, Los Angeles

NOON Projects is honored to present Fever Dream by Finnish artist Hertta Kiiski. In her second exhibition with the gallery in Los Angeles, Kiiski presents a constellation of sculptural works, photographic assemblages, and the premiere of two new films. The installation evokes a gentle collapse—quiet, recursive, and strangely tender. It unfolds as a soft hallucination, tracing the slow erosion of form, the porous boundaries between species, and the unexpected warmth found at the end of things. Fever Dream moves like a lucid dream—nonlinear, looping, and without hierarchy—where softness replaces spectacle at the edge of collapse.

Francis Gallery, Bath

Artist Statement: I've always found it difficult to distinguish between a painting and a drawing. I’m drawn to making paintings that use marks in an instinctive, spontaneous way, allowing a brush to go into free fall across the surface of the canvas. Equally, I make drawings that use immediate, expressive marks – a rapid, effortless process that can sometimes only take a few minutes to complete. The media or surfaces the drawings are made on is largely immaterial. What counts is the energy that is apparent in these gestural works – the sense of a line taking itself for a walk (to use Klee’s famous phrase) and the emotional direction this may lead you in.

Karma Gallery, Los Angeles

Maja Ruznic describes her works on paper as “portals,” apertures inviting both the artist and the viewer into her fantastical worlds of morphing shapes, chimerical figures, and saturated color. Painted with acrylic-based gouache on raw Khadi paper, these works are an essential part of the artist’s practice: working small at the beginning of each day in the studio allows Ruznic the freedom to summon new images from her unconscious.

He is taking over the 6,000 m2 of level 2 in the Bibliothèque Publique d'Information (Bpi) and transforming the space by means of a curatorial experiment. This installation creates a dialogue between his work and the library space, questioning it both as an architectural structure and as a place for the dissemination of knowledge.

This recent series of paintings was created during a focused residency in Los Angeles earlier this spring and represents a shift in both scale and mood. Botchway, known for his vivid portrayals of Black identity infused with psychological depth and vibrant colors, adopts an introspective approach in this body of work.

Fox makes paintings that are, first and foremost, about painting but inevitably end up being about everything else. The style he has developed over four decades is responsive to many levels of cultural production, indulging in disparate interests such as modernism, minimalism, comic books, and popular music. No two paintings are alike, even or especially those produced as entries in an immediately recognizable series.

A Tension Worth Keeping Because the Drift is Always There presents a group of new paintings by Nathaniel Oliver that follows a cast of characters over the course of a day as they navigate a single landscape. Combining imagery from his travels; figures based on friends, loved ones, and, in this exhibition, his own likeness; objects from his research into the material culture of West Africa; and elements of fantasy, Oliver layers references from our world into paintings that work like speculative fictions.

Cloud Painting by Peter Sutherland showcases an exciting new body of work created between 2024 and 2025.

Peter Sutherland’s work comes from a need to document the world around him — not the world that’s curated, but the raw, in-between spaces that are often overlooked. Sutherland is drawn to everyday objects, natural landscapes, and the marks people leave behind, whether through graffiti, architecture, or movement.

04.03.25 – 05.23.25

Lehmann Maupin, New York

Opie’s latest exhibition marks the New York debut of the artist’s Norwegian Mountain series, her newest body of work to date. The works, the artist has noted, are a meditation on “how the history of blue is used in art…about blue as a mourning as the planet changes so rapidly.”

04.03.25 – 05.10.25

02.28.25 – 04.12.25

Tate Modern, London

Leigh Bowery’s short but extraordinary life left a distinct, undeniable mark on the art world and beyond.

From his emergence in the nightlife of 1980s London through to his later daring and outrageous performances in galleries, theatres, and the street, Bowery fearlessly forged his own vibrant path. He reimagined clothing and makeup as forms of painting and sculpture, tested the limits of decorum, and celebrated the body as a shape-shifting tool with the power to challenge norms of aesthetics, sexuality and gender.

02.27.25 – 08.31.25

Southbank Centre, London

Mickalene Thomas’ vibrant, large-scale portraits of Black women at rest reclaim space and representation in art history, celebrating love and radical repose.

02.19.25 – 05.04.25

Webber Gallery, Los Angeles

Keisha Scarville has spent much of her life tracing routes of movement between the Caribbean and America in order to investigate her own lineage. Attempting to understand how notions of belonging and identity are formed and structured, her image-making practice visualises the latent narratives inscribed within the thresholds of memory across generations.

02.22.25 – 03.22.25

The Hole, Los Angeles

The Hole is proud to present a super-secret Barry McGee project for our West Coast friends as well, “Cherry Pit”, following his basement-dwelling “Cherry Picking” that warmed our snowy New York hearts last month. Activating his West Coast network of artists and outsiders, this special project hidden in our art storage will include works by Barry, works from his personal collection as well as pieces from fifty or more friends. To add a cherry on top, he is hosting a zine fair in the gallery for Frieze Week as well!

02.19.25 – 03.15.25

The Pit, Los Angeles

Tuning the Void introduces new work by Chicago-based Anna Kunz, marking her first solo exhibition with the gallery. Rooted in a long-running exploration of color as a relational force, the paintings unfold as quiet choreographies – shifting, responsive, and held in balance.

Working performatively, Kunz builds her canvases through layered washes of acrylic and dye on unprimed surfaces, allowing pigment and material to merge into something internally luminous. Drawing on palettes that echo dusk, dawn, and the saturated charge of 1960s psychedelia, her forms – arcs, wedges, and open planes – lean into one another, creating a sense of harmony that feels both intuitive and precise.

May 9 – Jun 17, 2026

Spencer Museum of Art, Kansas

Street Nihonga traces the life and work of Jimmy Tsutomu Mirikitani (1920–2012), an artist whose practice was shaped by displacement, survival, and movement across borders. Born in California, raised in Hiroshima, and later living on the streets of New York, Mirikitani turned to art – painting, drawing, collage – as both testimony and means of endurance.

Bringing together the largest presentation of his work to date, the exhibition moves between personal history and collective memory, from Tule Lake Segregation Center to postwar urban life. Blending traditional Nihonga techniques with found materials and street-level collaboration, Mirikitani’s work unfolds as a deeply human record – one that connects lived experience, political history, and the quiet resilience of making.

Through Jun 28. 2026

The Journal Gallery, New York

Creativity, at its core, is a kind of collage – pulling things together and seeing what happens.

That instinct runs through the work of Matt Dillon, who returns to art with a loose, intuitive approach shaped as much by life as by training. Drawing on time spent in Senegal while filming The Fence with Claire Denis, the paintings layer abstraction with fragments of landscape, architecture, and lived experience.

Unpolished and open-ended, the works feel less like statements and more like accumulations – images built through instinct, memory, and a quietly restless way of looking.

Apr 23 – May 23, 2026

Newton Foundation, Berlin

Intermezzo. Revisiting Helmut Newton introduces a new, more immersive way to encounter the work and world of Helmut Newton. Expanding on the long-running presentation of Helmut Newton’s Private Property, the exhibition rethinks how the photographer’s legacy is experienced.

At its center is a dedicated film room, where multiple projections unfold a layered portrait of Newton’s life and practice. Through moving image and first-hand accounts from collaborators and contemporaries, the exhibition shifts from static display to something more atmospheric – a closer, more personal encounter with the artist behind the lens.

From Apr 24, 2026

Luis De Jesus, Los Angeles

Recent work by Nicolas Grenier continues his exploration of painting as a system of construction. Working with structured compositions and layered color, the paintings sit somewhere between image and architecture, where form is built through accumulation rather than gesture.

There is a measured precision to the work, but also a sense of movement as shapes shift and interlock across the surface. Rooted in ideas of space, design, and visual language, the paintings read as both formal exercises and open-ended frameworks.

Apr 25 – Jun 6, 2026

Luis De Jesus, Los Angeles

The Drops presents a new body of work by Melissa Huddleston, centered on process, surface, and control. Built through layered pours of paint, the compositions settle into fluid, marbled forms where color and density shift subtly across each canvas.

The works balance precision and unpredictability, resisting overt gesture in favor of a slower, more measured approach. Installed within the gallery’s minimal space, they reward close looking, where detail emerges over time.

Apr 25 – Jun 6, 2026

LACMA, Los Angeles

The opening of the David Geffen Galleries marks a significant new chapter for Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Designed by Peter Zumthor, the building introduces a more fluid approach to display, bringing works from different periods and disciplines into a continuous, open framework.

Defined by natural light and uninterrupted sightlines, the galleries shift the experience from fixed viewing to movement through space. Rather than following a prescribed path, the installation encourages a more intuitive way of encountering both the architecture and the collection.

Opens Apr 19, 2026

David Zwirner, Los Angeles

Notes from LA brings together paintings and works on paper by Raymond Saunders (1934–2025), marking a return to Los Angeles more than a decade after his last dedicated presentation in the city. Curated by Ebony L. Haynes, the exhibition coincides with his inclusion in Photography and the Black Arts Movement, 1955–1985 at the Getty Center.

Rooted in his years in California, where he lived, worked, and taught, the works reflect Saunders’s distinctive visual language – layered, direct, and deeply informed by both studio practice and pedagogy. For him, teaching and making were inseparable, each shaping a body of work that reads as both personal expression and open-ended inquiry.

Through Apr 25, 2026

David Kordansky, Los Angeles

Love Letters presents new paintings by Hilary Pecis, turning toward the quiet, sustaining moments of everyday life. Known for her vivid still lifes, interiors, and distinctly Californian landscapes, Pecis builds a world where the familiar feels charged with meaning.

Here, scenes of daily routine sit alongside more personal markers – a friend’s studio window, a Bay Area yacht club sign, a collection of race medals – each rendered with her signature saturated palette. Moving fluidly between observation and memory, the works read as small acts of attention, held together by a sense of affection that feels both intimate and expansive.

May 16 – Jun 20, 2026

Canada Gallery, New York

Beautiful Rejects sees Anke Weyer return to her own archive, reworking a cache of unfinished canvases left dormant for over a decade. Rather than discard them, Weyer paints directly over these earlier efforts, folding past and present into a single surface.

The result is both reflective and forward-moving – a revisiting of forms, colors, and instincts that trace the evolution of her practice. What emerges is less a resolution than a rediscovery: paintings that carry the weight of time while remaining open, intuitive, and full of energy.

Apr 3  – May 9, 2026

Modern Art, Paris

Problems and other stories presents new work by Collier Schorr, marking her first exhibition in Paris. Bringing together photographs, collages, drawings, notes, and video made over the past seven years, the show continues Schorr’s ongoing exploration of gender, sexuality, and identity.

Across four decades, Schorr has consistently unsettled fixed ideas of desire, masculinity, and nationhood. Here, her focus turns toward kinship, embodiment, and the spaces people inhabit – asking who images are for, and how they hold the complexities of lived experience.

Mar 5 – Apr 4, 2026

Pace Gallery, New York

Chuck Close: On Paper brings together a wide-ranging selection of works by Chuck Close, from large-scale watercolors and Polaroids to drawings, maquettes, and prints, highlighting the central role paper played across his practice.

Since the 1970s, Close became known for his rigorous approach to portraiture, translating photographic images into meticulously gridded compositions. Working against the prevailing currents of Minimalism, Pop art, and abstraction, he reasserted portraiture as a conceptual field – methodical, exacting, and quietly radical.

Mar 12 – Apr 25, 2026

Gagosian, New York

Painting with Scattered Brushstrokes revisits the work of Roy Lichtenstein, bringing together key paintings, sculpture, and works on paper from the 1970s and ’80s drawn from the Lichtenstein Family Collection. Centered on the brushstroke as both image and idea, the exhibition traces one of the artist’s most iconic motifs.

First explored in the mid-1960s, Lichtenstein’s brushstrokes transform the expressive gesture of painting into something precise, graphic, and self-aware. Flattened into bold contours and blocks of color, they playfully echo the spontaneity of Abstract Expressionism while questioning notions of authorship, style, and originality.

Mar 19 – Apr 25, 2026

David Kordansky Gallery, Los Angeles

Spanning 1982 to 2015, the exhibition pairs Woodman’s exuberant ceramic sculptures with Murray’s iconic shaped canvases, revealing a shared impulse to blur the line between painting and object. Both artists treat the wall as an active partner, using color, form, and space to dissolve the boundaries between two and three dimensions while reimagining the domestic and architectural language of art.

Mar 19 – Apr 25, 2026

Bowman Hal, Madrid

In a new body of work, Paul McCarthy collaborates with Lilith Stangenberg to explore the uneasy terrain where power, desire, and performance intersect. Drawing loosely on The Night Porter by Liliana Cavani, the project unfolds through film, performance, and drawing sessions in which identities shift and collide—Adolf and Eva, Adam and Eve, father and daughter—probing the psychological structures that linger beneath history and culture.

Opens Mar 6, 2026

Karma, New York

In the paintings of Tamo Jugeli, composition begins not at the center but at the margins. Her abstractions radiate inward from gestures made along the edge of the canvas – a starting point that leaves the boundaries deliberately open, as if each painting might continue beyond itself.

Working directly in oil without preparatory studies, Jugeli responds instinctively to earlier marks and tonal shifts as the work unfolds. The large-scale abstractions in From 5 to 7, created over the past year for parallel presentations at Karma and Polina Berlin Gallery, form two distinct yet connected bodies of work. Shapes reappear across the canvases, subtly shifting with each iteration – less recurring motifs than what the artist describes as “muscle memory.”

Mar 18 – Apr 30, 2026

Luis De Jesus, Los Angeles

Allá Afuera (Out There) introduces new work by Joshua Nazario Lugo, marking the artist’s first solo exhibition outside Puerto Rico. Developed during a residency in Santa Monica, the presentation brings together recent paintings and sculptures shaped by reflections on identity, memory, and the cultural rhythms of Puerto Rico and its diaspora.

A self-taught, multidisciplinary artist, Nazario Lugo works with an instinctive energy – bold brushwork, tactile materials, and palettes that move between primary tones and the lush greens of tropical landscapes. The result is work that feels both immediate and personal, grounded in lived experience yet open to wider cultural echoes.

Mar 14 – Apr 11, 2026

Regan Projects, Los Angeles

Curtains brings together new drawings and sculptures by Jack Pierson, continuing his long-running exploration of language, nostalgia, and the elusive search for beauty.

At the center of the exhibition are Pierson’s signature word sculptures – phrases assembled from salvaged vintage signage gathered over decades. Arranged into charged fragments such as HOMOS ONLY and PURE BEING, the works hover between humor and existential reflection, their weathered letters carrying a quiet sense of memory, longing, and shared meaning.

Mar 12 – Apr 18, 2026

The Hole, New York

A special solo exhibition by Minneapolis-based Nick Dahlen turns its focus to the quiet theater of daily city life. Known for paintings that hover between observation and imagination, Dahlen captures street corners, neighborhood characters, and small urban details – from a giant pencil jar to a wandering “trash cat” – with the loose immediacy of a sketch.

Drawing on influences that range from Giorgio de Chirico and Fernand Léger to Tarsila do Amaral, his scenes blend surreal atmosphere with geometric clarity. Rendered in muted, retro-tinged palettes reminiscent of 1970s design or Joan Miró, the works evoke a city just outside of time – a moment before phones, when everyday gestures carried their own quiet drama.

Mar 13 – Apr 25, 2026

Gagosian, New York

Helen Frankenthaler: The Moment and the Distance surveys four decades of painting by Helen Frankenthaler, bringing together more than twenty of her largest and most ambitious canvases from 1960 to 1992. Organized in collaboration with the Helen Frankenthaler Foundation, the exhibition traces the artist’s continual reinvention of abstraction through monumental scale, sensuous color, and fluid composition.

Its title comes from a 1975 essay by poet Barbara Guest, who described Frankenthaler’s work as balancing “freedom with restraint, extravagance with discipline.” Seen across decades, the paintings reveal an expansive, lyrical practice in which gesture, color, and space unfold with both immediacy and distance.

Apr 30 – Jul 2, 2026

Kunstmuseum Den Haag, The Hague

A major retrospective at the Kunstmuseum Den Haag reflects on four decades of collaboration between photography duo Inez van Lamsweerde and Vinoodh Matadin. Since the early 1990s, the pair have pushed photography into new territory, among the first to harness digital imaging as a creative tool while developing a signature style that blends visual seduction with provocative narrative.

Working fluidly between art and fashion, Inez and Vinoodh have shaped the visual language of contemporary image culture – from editorials for Vogue, The New York Times Magazine, and W Magazine, to campaigns and films for houses including Chanel, Gucci, and Louis Vuitton. Their influence also extends into film and music, with videos created for artists such as Lady Gaga, Björk, and Rihanna.

Mar 21 – Sep 6, 2026

Thaddaeus Ropac, Paris

Glass Slipper marks the first solo exhibition in France by Los Angeles–based Ariana Papademetropoulos. Spanning painting, sculpture, and installation, the presentation centers on an aquarium filled with a shoal of fish, drawing viewers into a dreamlike environment where lush landscapes and psychological interiors quietly collide.

Vintage payphones appear as sculptural elements, inviting visitors to listen in on imagined conversations between the artist and her medium. Meanwhile, Papademetropoulos’s new large-scale paintings – absent of human figures – hum with unseen presences, hovering somewhere between realism and reverie.

Mar 7 – Apr 11, 2026

Ortuzar, New York

Letter to the World introduces the work of Japanese-Brazilian sculptor Megumi Yuasa (b. 1938) in his first exhibition in the United States. Bringing together around thirty works made between the early 1970s and 2025, the presentation traces six decades of Yuasa’s sculptural practice across ceramic, metal, and stone.

From compact early ceramics to vertically oriented constructions that combine clay with iron, steel, and brass, the works chart the evolution of a language grounded in balance, gravity, and quiet transformation. Monumental sculptures such as Personagem Sensível, Tropical, and the early Nuvem anchor the exhibition, while recurring bodies of work like Espássaro and Árvores reveal Yuasa’s long meditation on suspension, weight, and the delicate pull between earth and sky.

Mar 5 – Apr 11, 2026

Marian Goodman Gallery, Paris

All is Portraiture revisits the work of Barkley L. Hendricks (1944–2017), the influential artist who reshaped portraiture through his luminous depictions of Black Americans. Bringing together paintings, photographs, and works on paper, the exhibition – his first solo presentation in Europe – reflects Hendricks’s expansive practice and the attentive gaze that guided it for more than five decades.

Beginning in the late 1960s, Hendricks turned his lens and brush toward friends, neighbors, and strangers encountered on the street, granting visibility and presence to figures rarely centered in the history of portrait painting. Rendered with meticulous attention to clothing, texture, and personal style, his subjects stand confidently against spare backgrounds, their individuality heightened by the artist’s study of masters such as Rembrandt, Anthony van Dyck, Caravaggio, and Jan van Eyck. The result is portraiture that is at once classical and contemporary – images of style, presence, and quiet authority that continue to shape generations of artists today.

Feb 6 – April 4, 2026

Cob Gallery, London

Portraiture has long been the instinctive center of Jack Davison’s practice. Portraits: 14–16 November returns to the human face with renewed focus, setting aside experimentation in favor of a more restrained and intimate approach.

Presented in full, the series gathers ninety portraits made over three days in London, where Davison – working with casting director Coco Wu – street-cast individuals from across the city. Printed using photopolymer gravure, the images carry a tactile depth that bridges photography and printmaking, forming the first chapter in an ongoing exploration of presence, encounter, and the quiet power of the face.

Mar 6 – Apr 2, 2026

Gagosian, Los Angeles

A new body of tennis court paintings by Jonas Wood debuts in Los Angeles this spring, marking the gallery’s tenth exhibition with the artist and its first presentation of his work in the city. Opening March 12, just ahead of the Academy Awards, the show continues Wood’s long-running fascination with sports as image and structure.

Created in 2025 and 2026, each painting depicts a match from a major Association of Tennis Professionals, Women's Tennis Association, or Olympic tournament. Seen from behind the baseline, the courts unfold in compressed perspective, rendered without players or officials. Instead, crowds appear as rhythmic patterns of brushstrokes, turning the geometry of the game into a quietly abstract field.

March 12 – April 25, 2026

Mariposa, Los Angeles

Mariposa opens its Los Angeles space in the historic Hollywoodland Realty building on Beachwood Drive with a new body of ceramic sculptures by Peter Schlesinger (b. 1948, Los Angeles). The exhibition marks Schlesinger’s first solo presentation in the city in over a decade – and a return to where his artistic life first began.

Across his practice, Schlesinger folds mythology and fable into his forms: octopi, trees, birds, and vessels that nod to ancient archetypes alongside biomorphic, almost dreamlike shapes. Trained initially as a painter, he turned to ceramics in the 1980s after a formative period in London studying at the Slade and photographing cultural figures including Cecil Beaton, Ossie Clark, Amanda Lear, and Andy Warhol. His sculptures carry that lineage forward – balancing modernism and antiquity, bohemian instinct and formal restraint, surface play and sculptural weight.

Through Apr 4, 2026

Thaddaeus Ropac, Paris

Tomorrow: Yes fills the vast Paris Pantin space with a full-scale presentation by Erwin Wurm, marking his first solo exhibition to occupy the entire venue. Anchored by two monumental installations – a compressed schoolhouse and a six-metre-tall bent sailing boat – the show leans into Wurm’s talent for destabilizing the familiar.

Spanning marble, bronze, and aluminium, and including works from his participatory One Minute Sculptures, the exhibition gathers many pieces shown here for the first time. Together, they expand sculpture beyond objecthood, bending it toward the abstract and intangible – where humor, distortion, and physical improbability quietly rewrite the rules.

Tate Britain, London

The first major solo exhibition of Hurvin Anderson brings together more than 80 paintings spanning his career – from early student works to new, previously unseen canvases. Across saturated landscapes and interior scenes, Anderson moves between the UK and the Caribbean, tracing a life shaped by migration and inheritance. Born in Birmingham to Jamaican parents, he has long explored questions of belonging, memory, and diaspora. Barbershops, family figures, and layered geographies recur, sometimes collapsing one place into another, underscoring the fragility of recollection and the complexity of cultural identity.

Atmospheric and precise, the paintings draw from the lineage of British landscape while reframing it through lived experience. Together, the exhibition affirms Anderson’s position as one of the defining painters of his generation.

MEP, Paris

American Images surveys more than three decades of work by Dana Lixenberg, bringing into focus a deeply human portrait of the United States. Celebrities and everyday individuals are met with the same attentiveness, each rendered with a dignity that resists spectacle.

Born in Amsterdam and arriving in New York in 1989, Lixenberg approaches America with the clarity of an outsider – probing the mythologies of the American Dream while building a photographic language rooted in empathy, trust, and sustained engagement. The result is a quiet but persuasive counter-narrative, one that feels as relevant now as ever.

Feb 11 – May 24, 2026

Karma, New York

In the quietly exacting paintings of Dike Blair, time seems to pause. Windowsills, airport lounges, elevators, and construction sites unfold as tightly framed moments, with recent oils developed over the past two years turning attention toward surfaces, thresholds, and the act of looking itself.

Rather than settle into a single narrative, the works build meaning through repetition and subtle variation – drinks, flowers, screens, and architectural edges echo across compositions, while rectangles stack within rectangles. Interior spaces dominate, pared back and solitary, with art-historical murmurs from Piet Mondrian to Pierre Bonnard. Even a paused frame from La Dolce Vita by Federico Fellini appears as another image-within-an-image – a reminder that for Blair, painting is as much about perception as it is about place.

Feb 19 – Mar 28, 2026

NOON Gallery, Los Angeles

Where there is Great Love there are Always Great Miracles brings together sculptures, paintings, and drawings by David Shull, marking the artist’s third exhibition with the gallery. Begun in 2002 and developed over two decades, the works reflect Shull’s sustained interest in sentimentality, intimacy, and the quiet sincerity of everyday materials.

Balancing tenderness with a subtle wit, familiar objects are recast as vessels for memory and emotional charge. The exhibition is accompanied by a book created with Jack Doroshow, whose handwritten contributions extend the project into a narrative shaped by friendship, exchange, and shared sensibility.

Jeffrey Deitch, Los Angeles

Two previously unseen bodies of photographic work by Paige Powell offer a rare, close-range view of her friend and longtime associate Andy Warhol. Private Andy: Religious Services gathers intimate photographs and ephemera from the mid-1980s, revealing a quieter, deeply human dimension of Warhol alongside the social and spiritual circles he moved through.

Drawn from Powell’s personal archive, the exhibition centers on two series – PRIVATE ANDY, Double Exposures (1987) and Religious Services, Volunteering at The Episcopal Church of Heavenly Rest, New York City (1986). Together, they trace a portrait rarely seen: less icon, more inner life.

Feb 20 – Apr 4, 2026

Jeffrey Deitch, Los Angeles

The Being introduces a new immersive installation by Italian-born Marco Perego, whose multidisciplinary practice spans video, installation, and drawing. Built from a network of sensory elements – screen, sound, scent, and responsive architectural surfaces – the work behaves less like an object and more like a living system. Observing and reacting to each visitor, the installation captures facial expressions, shifts with emotional states, and pulses in rhythm with real-time solar data. When the space is empty, it intensifies; when viewers enter and attune to one another, image, light, and even the scent of petrichor emerge. Suspended between cosmic time and the immediacy of the body, The Being gestures toward a shared consciousness – one that quietly exceeds the limits of a single human life.

Feb 20 – Apr 4, 2026

Pace Gallery, Tokyo

Robert Nava brings his first solo exhibition in Japan to Tokyo this spring, unveiling new paintings and works on paper created between 2023 and 2026. The presentation draws viewers into fantastical terrains where beauty and chaos coexist – and where the boundless logic of childhood imagination quietly resurfaces.

Populated by angels, witches, hybrid creatures, and otherworldly presences, Nava’s compositions pulse with electric color while carrying an undercurrent of philosophical weight. At once playful and existential, the works resist easy categorization, landing somewhere between figuration and abstraction with a raw, intuitive energy that feels both inviting and faintly disquieting.

Feb 19 – Apr 1, 2026

Pace Gallery, Los Angeles

New paintings by Los Angeles–based Lauren Quin debut this winter, marking her first solo exhibition with Pace since joining the gallery in 2025. Created over the past eighteen months, the work signals a deliberate rupture in Quin’s practice – a move away from chromatic excess toward what she describes as a “detox of color.” A fully illustrated catalogue will accompany the exhibition, featuring a new text by Ariana Reines.

At a glance, the canvases hover near monochrome, but closer looking reveals dense tonal blacks and greys edged by fugitive traces of color – hues that linger like afterimages rather than declarations. Familiar symbols dissolve into these atmospheres, suggesting a quieter, more restrained language in which color is less an event than a memory.

Jan 31 – Mar 28, 2026

David Kordansky Gallery, New York

Shadowland brings together paintings, photo collages, and a mural by Odili Donald Odita, alongside two works from the 1970s by his father, Okechukwu Emmanuel Odita. On view in New York from January 15 through February 28, 2026, the exhibition marks a layered second solo presentation that folds past and present into a shared creative lineage.

Moving across current, historical, and inherited bodies of work, Shadowland traces the evolution of Odita’s formal language while situating it within familial and geopolitical histories. At its core, the exhibition wrestles with enduring questions of power – how it is seen, shaped, and reclaimed – while positioning painting itself as a space for connection across generations, borders, and lived experience.

National Portrait Gallery, London

Lucian Freud: Drawing into Painting is the UK’s most comprehensive exhibition devoted to the artist’s works on paper, pairing rarely seen drawings with a focused selection of paintings. Long celebrated for his unflinching portraits, Freud approached drawing as both foundation and parallel practice.

On view at the National Portrait Gallery, the show traces his enduring preoccupation with the human face and figure while introducing twelve newly acquired works from the estate – including the museum’s first Freud etchings and a portrait of his daughter, Bella Freud.

12 Feb – 4 May, 2026

Gallery 33, Los Angeles

Presents 20/26: A Periodic Table of Consequence, Irrelevance, and Midlife Slices, an exhibition by Danny Minnick, spanning work made between 2020 and 2026.

Part time capsule, part work-in-motion, 20/26 frames a turbulent stretch of recent history through Minnick’s lived experience – family, sobriety, art, and the steady churn of the world outside. Raised in Seattle, shaped by skate culture, and forged in Los Angeles, Minnick’s practice has always been about movement, recovery, and forward momentum. His work resists stasis – and resists automation – with a stubbornly human energy. The recurring “Character,” all bone, will, and resolve, stands as an antidote to artificial intelligence and the creeping erosion of presence.

From pandemic solitude to new arrivals – a wife, a daughter – and less welcome ones, Minnick pulls meaning from the noise. Playful, defiant, and reflective, 20/26 reads as a life in progress: messy, hopeful, and very much alive. Don’t ask ChatGPT. Ask Danny.

David Zwirner, Los Angeles

Zvibereko zvemweya wangu, its third solo exhibition with Portia Zvavahera, on view at the gallery’s 606 N Western Avenue location in Los Angeles. Featuring a new series of paintings, the exhibition extends Zvavahera’s ongoing experiments with process and narrative, weaving her carefully charted dream worlds into the textures of lived experience – daily rituals, memory, and the quiet intensity of belief.

In these new works, familiar motifs return with fresh charge. Symbolic creatures move through the compositions as spiritual messengers – conduits for vision, reflection, and the larger questions that sit between the sacred and the everyday.

Through Feb 7, 2026

Camden Art Centre, London

Following his win of Camden Art Centre’s Emerging Artist Award at Frieze in 2024, London-based Nat Faulkner presents his first major UK institutional exhibition.

Spanning the Central Space and Gallery 3, the show introduces new works that deepen Faulkner’s ongoing relationship with analogue photography – where the studio becomes both darkroom and testing ground, hovering in the work as a kind of spectral collaborator. Titled Strong water – a nod to aqua fortis, the Latin name for nitric acid – the exhibition leans into the artist’s fascination with chemistry, process, and transformation.

In the opening room, iodine and light take center stage: two foundational forces in photography’s early history. Contained in bespoke vessels, an iodine solution stains the space in a warm, orange cast as daylight pours down through the Victorian skylights, turning the gallery itself into an image-in-progress.

16 Jan – 22 Mar, 2026

Gagosian, London

Karma, Los Angeles

In ABC, Henni Alftan presents twenty-six drawings, each keyed to a letter of the Roman alphabet. Set against flat, monochromatic grounds, familiar objects hover in isolation – A for aspirin and ants, B for Band-Aids, buttons, and buckles, and so on – forming a quiet, methodical visual lexicon.

Bound by the scale of the paper itself, Alftan limits her selections to objects that could physically fit within each roughly ten-by-eight-inch sheet. Working inside this tight frame, ABC opens onto larger questions of pictorial space and illusion, of order and hierarchy, and of how images and words shape one another. The result is restrained, precise, and gently conceptual – an alphabet built through looking.

Jan 17 – Feb 14, 2026

David Kordansky Gallery, Los Angeles

Precious Moments, a new exhibition by Sayre Gomez, marking his first solo show with the gallery. On view from January 16 to March 1, 2026, the exhibition unfolds across all three Los Angeles spaces, bringing together new paintings, sculpture, and video.

Known for his sharp eye on American urban life, Gomez turns his focus back to Los Angeles – its surfaces, symbols, and contradictions. Large-scale photorealistic paintings sit alongside meticulously crafted objects and new moving-image work, tracing questions of memory, authenticity, and how history is absorbed in the present tense. Precious Moments pushes this inquiry closer to home, reflecting on how his children navigate a landscape saturated with the imagery of late capitalism, and how those encounters reshape his own way of seeing. The result is Gomez’s most expansive statement to date – critical and romantic, precise yet open, reading the built environment as both personal archive and cultural mirror.

Jan 16 – Mar 1, 2026

Art Institute Chicago

Over seven decades, Lucas Samaras built a practice unlike anyone else’s. Working across photography, sculpture, and drawing, he repeatedly turned inward, using his own body and personal belongings as both subject and material.

This exhibition centers on Samaras’s radical photographic work, where performance, self-image, and technical experimentation collide. Using instant Polaroid film – prized for its privacy and autonomy – he worked alone, at home, without a darkroom or intermediaries. But rather than accept the medium’s limits, Samaras pushed it to extremes, physically manipulating the pigments to distort his body, merge figure and space, and remake the image from the inside out.

Jan 31 – Jul 20, 2026

Philadelphia Museum of Art

Noah Davis set out, in his own words, “to represent the people around me.” Born in Seattle in 1983, he made Los Angeles his home, developing a practice that portrayed contemporary Black life with tenderness, clarity, and care. This major retrospective expands beyond painting to include collage, found photography, sculpture, early web projects, and the vision that ultimately led him to found his own museum.

The exhibition makes its final stop at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, following an international tour with DAS MINSK, the Barbican, and the Hammer Museum. Key works include 40 Acres and a Unicorn, Isis, Savage Wilds, and the celebrated Pueblo del Rio series – paintings that anchor Davis’s legacy in place, history, and lived experience.

Gagosian, London

Marking 40 years since the publication of The Ballad of Sexual Dependency, an upcoming exhibition at Gagosian’s Davies Street space presents all 126 photographs from the original book – shown together for the first time in the UK. Described by Nan Goldin as “the diary I let people read,” the work lands with the same raw intimacy that made it seismic on first release.

Shot in the thick of New York’s downtown scene in the 1970s and 80s, the images capture a world of sex, drugs, punk, and chosen family, while also cementing a visual language that would ripple through generations of photographers. Seen in full, The Ballad of Sexual Dependency reads less like history and more like lived experience – urgent, unfiltered, and still very much alive.

Jan 13, 2026 – Mar 21, 2026

Pace Gallery, Berlin

Lynch-heads in Berlin, take note. A new exhibition at Pace Gallery brings together paintings, sculptures, early short films, and photographs by the late David Lynch, many taken during his visits to the German capital. It’s a tight, atmospheric look at Lynch beyond the director’s chair – one that foregrounds the fact that he always understood himself as a visual artist first.

Having studied painting at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in the late 1960s, Lynch carried that sensibility across every medium he touched. This Berlin presentation – a prelude to a larger exhibition opening later this year at Pace’s Los Angeles space – traces the connective tissue between his images and ideas, revealing a singular, idiosyncratic world that refuses to stay in just one form.

Jan 29, 2026 – Mar 22, 2026

Jeu de Paume, Paris

From the 1970s until his death in December last year, Martin Parr trained his lens on the everyday theatre of modern life – its oddities, contradictions, and quiet absurdities. As framed by Jeu de Paume in Paris, this expansive presentation brings together around 180 photographs made across continents, tracing Parr’s sharp eye for the small moments that reveal much bigger truths.

Shot with humour, precision, and a healthy dose of irony, the works lay bare the inequalities of a globalised world and the excesses of contemporary living. It’s Parr at his best – playful on the surface, incisive underneath, and relentlessly attentive to the strange ways we move through the world.

David Zwirner, New York

The Last Dyes, an exhibition of new dye-transfer prints by William Eggleston, on view at the gallery’s 533 West 19th Street space in New York. A pioneer of color photography, Eggleston began working with the dye-transfer process in the 1970s – a meticulous, richly saturated analog technique that became inseparable from the way his images were first seen.

As the title suggests, these works mark the end of the line. They are the final photographs ever printed by Eggleston using this process, and together form the last major body of dye-transfer prints to be produced at all. It’s a rare chance to encounter these images exactly as they were originally intended – lush, exacting, and quietly radical.

Jan 15, 2026 – Mar 7, 2026

Regen Projects, Los Angeles

Regen Projects presents Keep Movin’, Wolfgang Tillmans’s ninth solo exhibition with the gallery since 1995. Arriving after a major year of institutional shows – from the Centre Pompidou in Paris to the Albertinum in Dresden, plus the 36th Bienal de São Paulo – the exhibition pulls focus back to the core of Tillmans’s practice. New photographs, videos, sculptural installations, and an expanded Truth Study Center come together in a loose, searching constellation.

At its heart, Keep Movin’ traces how Tillmans’s visual language has shifted over time – always grounded in the physical world, yet open to the sociopolitical, sensual, and spiritual undercurrents that run through his work. It’s less about resolution and more about staying in motion – looking closely, questioning often, and letting images breathe.

Jan 15, 2026 – Mar 01, 2026

David Kordansky, Los Angeles

PILINGS brings together a new series of paintings and drawings by Michael Williams, anchored by seven interconnected canvases that treat the studio as both setting and subject – its objects, light and idle questions all folded into the mix.

Familiar items – a table, a golf bag, a co-op ID, a chair – surface in shifting arrangements within a lavender-peach-grey palette. Each painting loops back to the last, absorbing earlier images into new compositions that hover between recognition and abstraction as Williams follows his own intuitive, restless mark-making.

Nov 7, 2025 – Dec 13, 2025

Kunsthalle Krems, Austria

In this museum debut in Austria, Joe Bradley brings a sweeping selection of nearly 90 recent works to Kunsthalle Krems — paintings, drawings, and sculptures that move freely between figuration and abstraction. The New York–based artist’s practice has always lived in that charged in-between space, and this presentation offers a sharp, expansive look at how his vocabulary continues to evolve.

Vielmatter, Los Angeles

In Your Tears Will Dry, Kiriakos Tompolidis channels the disorienting, energizing shift of relocating from Berlin to Mexico City. The works fold in the city’s color, flora, and everyday textures, shaping portraits that hover between memory and observation. Known for navigating the space between cultures, Tompolidis offers scenes where displacement and recognition sit side by side — figures held within environments rendered with a meticulous, almost tender attention to detail.

Nov 15, 2025 – Jan 17, 2026

Mai 36 Gallery, Zurich

In Sensible Shoes, Roe Ethridge leans into the messy, magnetic space where the everyday blurs with the staged, the personal with the commercial. Long known for erasing the borders between fine art and editorial work, he brings a new body of images to Mai 36 Galerie for his fourth solo outing – pictures that read as both sly and sincere, a quietly funny but sharp look at how we make and consume images today.

The paintings in California Dreaming open up Guidi’s world in expansive new ways. She treats landscape not as backdrop but as emotion – layering atmosphere, detail and memory until the image almost vibrates. The material weight that has anchored her work for fifteen years remains, now paired with a softer, dream-soaked curiosity that signals a clear new chapter.

The gallery is pleased to present Tower, a solo exhibition by acclaimed painter Sean Scully, bringing together three interlinked bodies of work. The new Tower paintings mark a striking shift – a bold unravelling of his own language – each built from a stack of smaller panels that feel pulled from different styles and past moments in his practice, reassembled into something entirely new.

The first Italian retrospective devoted to American painter Alice Neel (1900–1984) casts fresh light on one of the 20th century’s most essential voices. Alice Neel. I Am the Century, curated by Sarah Cosulich and Pietro Rigolo, frames her radical, human-first vision – a body of work defined by curiosity, empathy and an unwavering commitment to portraying people in all their complexity.

The Figure is the first full-scale survey of Milton Avery’s figurative paintings, spanning from the 1920s – when he arrived in New York – through 1964, the year he completed his final canvases. His wife, Sally Michel, once described their home as a revolving door of artists, relatives, models and friends of friends, all deep in conversation about painting while Avery sat quietly sketching them one by one. That ever-changing cast, she noted, became the wellspring of his subjects.

The Taylor Wessing Photo Portrait Prize brings together a sharp mix of young photographers, gifted amateurs and seasoned pros – a snapshot of the best in contemporary portraiture. The competition celebrates images that carry stories, from formal commissioned portraits to quick, intimate moments with friends and family. Many of the works are being shown for the first time, offering a wide sweep of styles and moods – classic to contemporary, tender to theatrical – all capturing the endlessly shifting possibilities of the photographic portrait.

Marilyn Minter’s fourth solo show with the gallery brings together four distinct but connected groups of paintings – large-scale portraits, the Odalisque series, the After Guston works and a set of her signature magnified mouths. Her hyperrealist approach both subverts and nods to the history of portraiture, folding in decades of technical refinement with an unmistakably personal connection to her subjects and artistic influences.

11.06.25 – 12.20.25

As the first major Los Angeles exhibition devoted to Lee Lozano, Hard Handshake gathers more than one hundred drawings from 1959 to 1968. Made at a blistering pace and in a range of styles, these works channel Lozano’s unsparing eye and dry humor – pulling apart ideas around gender, ownership and the commodification of art while poking at the very structure of everyday life.

Few artists captured the slow crumble of the American empire quite like Dash Snow. As a graffiti kid turned photographer, zine-maker, collagist, sculptor and unapologetic downtown bon vivant, he turned the early-millennium mood of looming collapse into raw material – tapping the dark, absurd poetry of an era obsessed with dictators, drugs, fallen celebrities, serial killers, terrorists, immigrants and assorted misfits.

The brothers’ work is dense, tactile and delightfully unhinged – a rush of invention shaped by what they jokingly call their “problem-solving fantasies.” Their characters, creatures and alternate worlds feel like extensions of a shared imagination, filtered through the pop culture and early-tech aesthetics they grew up with in the ’90s and early 2000s.

Yunhee Min’s new suite of small-scale paintings reflects her ongoing interest in optical phenomena, transient light, and in capturing a sense of emergence. Each piece meditates on the passage of time, translating atmospheric impressions, sounds, memories, and observations into heavily saturated, tonal and near-translucent fields of color. Through Min’s deft grasp of the interactions between color, form, and opacity, the compositions seem to vibrate and flicker as layers of paint meander in and out of visibility.

The exhibition title Earth Canal plays on the idea of the “birth canal,” reflecting humanity’s painful, collective passage through a transformative moment. Carved from redwood and stone, cast in bronze, and occasionally adorned with gold leaf, Schneider’s works are at once primordial and contemporary, evoking the timeless presence of ancient idols while resonating with today’s cultural anxieties.

Circles, Spokes, Zigzags, Rivers brings together nine recent paintings and a large-scale sculpture by Grace Rosario Perkins (b. 1986; Santa Fe, New Mexico; Akimel O’odham/Diné). The title of the exhibition describes petroglyphs that connect the artist’s family to her tribal homelands in the southwestern United States, including the vital, yet threatened, waters of the Gila River and Rio Grande. The influence of such longstanding technologies of visual storytelling is evident in Perkins’s symbol-rich art. Flowers, stars, the sun, and spider webs are given significant presence within the systems the artist creates to record her life.

“I loved art before I loved poetry,” said poet, activist, and painter John Giorno (1936–2019). A fixture of the New York art and literary scenes of the 1960s, Giorno is widely noted for his encounters—intellectual, social, and sexual—with figures like poet Allen Ginsberg, writer William S.

In his works of the last several years Crumb reflects on life in his eighties and his sixty-year career as well as themes of personal and mass paranoia during these times of social and political unrest. Crumb’s most mordant attacks are, as always, reserved for himself and show him contending with his own manic anxieties in a humorous and insightful manner.

This focused presentation brings together eight monumental works spanning Gertsch’s career, elucidating the ways in which he transformed photographic imagery into hyperrealist paintings and woodcuts. What appears at first glance to be a project of exacting replication emerges instead as a deeply investigative practice—one that enshrines the poetry of fugitive moments through a disciplined material language. Gertsch’s work stands as a testament to his relentless pursuit of a new way to represent reality by challenging the very boundaries of realism.

Made in L.A. 2025 is the seventh iteration of the Hammer’s signature biennial exhibition that showcases artists practicing throughout the greater Los Angeles area. The 28 participants in the exhibition present work not only made in the city but also grounded in its complex and unfolding terrain. Neither myth nor monolith, Los Angeles is many things to many people, and its dissonance is perhaps its most distinguishing feature. The works presented in this year’s biennial include film, painting, theater, choreography, photography, sculpture, sound, and video. Attitude draws them together: Each engages with this city in ways alternately literal, formal, material, and metaphoric. Conceived or made in Los Angeles, they are of this city and nowhere else.

White Columns is pleased to present I AM SHEE, a solo exhibition by the artist and musician Amy Sheffer(b. 1944, Richmond, VA.) The exhibition has been organized in collaboration with RVNG Intl., the eclectic and consistently innovative New York-based music institution. A visual artist, composer and musician, Sheffer resides in Great Neck, Long Island, where she continues to make vivid, quasi-surrealist paintings inflected with a distinct lyricism. In her multilayered compositions, Sheffer combines dreamlike motifs teeming with scenes of wild and domestic animals, bodily forms and the artist herself, all suffused with the sense of a dense, ecstatic psychological realm that threatens to spill over into the world of the mundane. Sheffer’s visual artwork has primarily been shown in the context of musical happenings and performances. Her exhibition at White Columns is the artist’s first solo show in New York.

Each blade indexes a single flick of Calvin Marcus’s brush; these marks accumulate into the densely patterned surfaces of his Grass Paintings. While representational, these compositions are neither grounded in scene, nor focal point, nor perspective; they are nonhierarchical in their treatment of a motif synonymous, in the United States, with conformity. Calling to mind carefully bordered yards, soccer fields, and other overlooked elements of the modern developed landscape, the Grass Paintings continue Marcus’s investigations into symbolic and formal reverberations of the banal.

Jeffrey Deitch and Company Gallery are pleased to announce It Smells Like Girl, a thematic group exhibition co-organized by the two galleries that revisits the charged and often misunderstood concept of female hysteria through painting, video, sculpture, performance, screenings, and installation. Historically dismissed as a medical diagnosis, hysteria was less a pathology than a social mirror reflecting the anxieties, fears, and fantasies projected onto women’s bodies. Weaponized to silence and contain, this machination persists today, not as a medical term, but as an undercurrent in the contemporary cultural psyche. Its echoes can be found in the emotional labor demanded, the expectations imposed, and the subtle systems that still seek to regulate affect and embodiment.

09.06.26 – 11.01.25

Lisson Gallery, Los Angeles

In the first major exhibition in Los Angeles dedicated to the art of Hélio Oiticica (1937–1980), Lisson Gallery presents a selection of the artist’s seminal compositions, including vibrant gouaches, and dynamic suspended sculptures, and a rare oil painting. Highlighting the formative years of Oiticica’s career, the exhibition charts his trajectory from early geometric abstraction to immersive environments that transformed the viewer’s experience with art and space.

09.17.25 – 11.01.25

Regan Projects, Los Angeles

Regen Projects is pleased to present #34, Los Angeles-based artist Rebecca Morris’s first solo exhibition with the gallery and the thirty-fourth of her career. Over the past thirty years Morris has established a sophisticated visual lexicon to expand the limits and possibilities of non-objective abstraction in painting. As Hamza Walker has written, “Rebecca Morris’s commitment to abstraction lies somewhere between the poles of fierce and rabid, a prerequisite for coping with a pluralism arising not only from across disciplines but from within the discipline of painting itself.”

09.13.25 – 10.25.25

Pace Gallery, New York

Roversi’s upcoming exhibition with Pace in New York—his first solo show with the gallery since 2019—will present an overview of his storied career through a selection of photographs created over the past 35 years.“Every portrait is a meeting, an exchange, a mutual intimate confession,” Roversi has said of his work. The show will shed light on Roversi’s legacy as the artist behind some of the most iconic fashion images of our time.

09.12.25 – 10.25.25

Good Mother Gallery, Los Angeles

Good Mother Gallery is pleased to present The Chase Scene, a solo exhibition of new paintings by San Francisco based artist Chad Hasegawa. Known for his bold abstractions that fuse precision with intensity, Hasegawa brings hard-edge minimalism into dialogue with atmosphere, emotion, and movement. With The Chase Scene, he turns painting into an exploration of momentum itself, transforming color and form into meditations on pursuit, suspension, and release.

09.13.25 – 10.24.25

OCHI Gallery, Los Angeles

OCHI is pleased to present Visual Snow, a two-person exhibition of new works by Omaha-based artist Casey Callahan and New York-based artist Jack Ryan. This will be the inaugural presentation at OCHI’s new Melrose Hill gallery location. Visual Snow will be on view at 605 N. Western Avenue in Los Angeles

Visual snow syndrome is a neurological condition characterized by persistent perceptual aberrations in the form of tiny, shimmering dots across a subject’s field of vision. While the exact cause is unknown, research suggests it may be related to increased excitability in the visual cortex. It is theorized that VSS is a strategy of neurological resistance, generating optical information in response to stress or sensual deprivation.

The Photographers Gallery, London

Music + Life captures the spirit of some of the most pivotal moments in 20th-century culture, from the soulful vibrancy of reggae to the rebellious energy of punk. Morris provides a rare glimpse into the lives of legendary musicians, revealing the trust and connection he forged with his subjects. His candid photographs of Bob Marley, both on stage and off, along with the raw, chaotic world of the Sex Pistols, illustrate his unique ability to capture the personalities behind the music.

Through 09.28.25

Museum of the City of New York

New York’s age of graffiti began on the city streets in the early 1970s. This new movement, often consciously artistic despite its unsanctioned origins, came of age over the next 20 years. Above Ground centers on the many artists who transitioned from illegally writing on subway cars to creating paintings on canvas and exhibiting in galleries and museums. Their works embody an important transitional moment for the movement’s evolution, as it permeated into broader consciousness and significantly influenced global culture.

Through 08.05.25

The Broad, Los Angeles

Jeffrey Gibson: the space in which to place me is a kaleidoscopic special exhibition filled with vibrant colors, intricate beadwork, towering sculptures, and powerful storytelling, all reflecting the artist’s radical vision for a future in which all people are seen, accepted, and loved. The show comes to The Broad directly from the 60th Venice Biennale (2024), one of the most prestigious exhibitions of visual art in the world, where Gibson made history as the first Indigenous artist to represent the United States with a solo show at the US Pavilion. 

Through 08.28.25

The Guggenheim Museum, Bilbao

Presents the first comprehensive survey in Spain of American artist Barbara Kruger, whose bold, thought-provoking work has captivated audiences for over five decades. This expansive exhibition explores how Kruger harnesses the power of words and images to question the structures that shape our daily lives—identity, desire, truth, and control.

06.24.2025 – 11.09.2025

NOON Projects, Los Angeles

NOON Projects is honored to present Fever Dream by Finnish artist Hertta Kiiski. In her second exhibition with the gallery in Los Angeles, Kiiski presents a constellation of sculptural works, photographic assemblages, and the premiere of two new films. The installation evokes a gentle collapse—quiet, recursive, and strangely tender. It unfolds as a soft hallucination, tracing the slow erosion of form, the porous boundaries between species, and the unexpected warmth found at the end of things. Fever Dream moves like a lucid dream—nonlinear, looping, and without hierarchy—where softness replaces spectacle at the edge of collapse.

08.01.25 – 08.30.25

Francis Gallery, Bath

Artist Statement: I've always found it difficult to distinguish between a painting and a drawing. I’m drawn to making paintings that use marks in an instinctive, spontaneous way, allowing a brush to go into free fall across the surface of the canvas. Equally, I make drawings that use immediate, expressive marks – a rapid, effortless process that can sometimes only take a few minutes to complete. The media or surfaces the drawings are made on is largely immaterial. What counts is the energy that is apparent in these gestural works – the sense of a line taking itself for a walk (to use Klee’s famous phrase) and the emotional direction this may lead you in.

06.26.25 – 08.23.25

Karma Gallery, Los Angeles

Maja Ruznic describes her works on paper as “portals,” apertures inviting both the artist and the viewer into her fantastical worlds of morphing shapes, chimerical figures, and saturated color. Painted with acrylic-based gouache on raw Khadi paper, these works are an essential part of the artist’s practice: working small at the beginning of each day in the studio allows Ruznic the freedom to summon new images from her unconscious.

06.25.25 – 08.13.25

7351 Santa Monica Boulevard

Centre Pompidou, Paris

The Centre Pompidou is giving German artist Wolfgang Tillmans free rein to create a unique project to mark the end of the exhibition programme at the centre in Paris. He is taking over the 6,000 m2 of level 2 in the Bibliothèque Publique d'Information (Bpi) and transforming the space by means of a curatorial experiment. This installation creates a dialogue between his work and the library space, questioning it both as an architectural structure and as a place for the dissemination of knowledge.

06.13.25 – 08.22.25

Vielmetter, Los Angeles

Be Your Own Cool, an exhibition of new works by Ghanaian artist Kwesi Botchway. On view from July 19 to September 13, this exhibition marks Botchway’s second solo presentation with the gallery.

This recent series of paintings was created during a focused residency in Los Angeles earlier this spring and represents a shift in both scale and mood. Botchway, known for his vivid portrayals of Black identity infused with psychological depth and vibrant colors, adopts an introspective approach in this body of work.

07.19.25 – 09.13.25

Galerie Enrico Navarra, Paris

We are such stuff as dreams are made on*, and Matt McCormick’s exhibition Running on Empty brings that to life. The Los Angeles-based Californian revisits his teenage years—a time when, for each of us, a new world opens up, filled with intimate stories and powerful ideals. McCormick offers insight into his work, navigating between contemporary mythologies and moments of serene elevation.

06.27.25 – 08.01.25

The Journal Gallery, Los Angeles

If artists are known–or at least prone–to holding up a mirror to society, then what does Oliver Clegg's work reflect? His fantastical surrealities, exemplified in a new show of paintings at The Journal Gallery in Los Angeles, resemble the familiar features of modern life not even slightly.

Murmurs, Los Angeles

Murmurs is pleased to present 𝘏𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘧𝘵𝘦𝘳, a solo exhibition of paintings and sculptures by Sissòn, marking the artist’s first solo show with the gallery. This exhibition serves as a survey or a departure from one school of thinking, and ascendance to a new era for the artist. Evoking a period of renaissance similar to Miles Davis's transition from Silent Way to Bitches Brew, Sissòn expands on their vast knowledge of color theory and application, merging abstract and figurative painting styles.

06.07.25 – 07.13.25

In Canadafornia is Geoff McFetridge’s first solo exhibition where oil paintings serve as both points of departure and disappearance. The 16 intimately scaled tableaus were created over the past year. Originating as small, loose, notebook-sized studies, McFetridge often revisits each motif in several versions before completing a final iteration on panel.

06.06.25 – 08.09.25

David Zwirner, New York

In Crucible, Armitage reflects on the theme of migration. Painted on Lubugo bark cloth—a traditional Ugandan textile used in funerary rituals, which the artist has used as a support for more than a decade—these works are marked by a visceral directness that implicates the viewer in the migrant’s journey and the representation of migrants in wider society. 

Through 06.27.25

GRIMM, New York

Still Moving is a collaboration with the renowned movie theatre Metrograph in New York. The artist will showcase new paintings created in relation to four selected films concurrently screened to accompany the gallery exhibition.

Through 06.21.25

David Kordansky Gallery, Los Angeles

Fox makes paintings that are, first and foremost, about painting but inevitably end up being about everything else. The style he has developed over four decades is responsive to many levels of cultural production, indulging in disparate interests such as modernism, minimalism, comic books, and popular music. No two paintings are alike, even or especially those produced as entries in an immediately recognizable series. 

05.16.25 – 06.28.25

Karma, Los Angeles

A Tension Worth Keeping Because the Drift is Always There presents a group of new paintings by Nathaniel Oliver that follows a cast of characters over the course of a day as they navigate a single landscape. Combining imagery from his travels; figures based on friends, loved ones, and, in this exhibition, his own likeness; objects from his research into the material culture of West Africa; and elements of fantasy, Oliver layers references from our world into paintings that work like speculative fictions. 

05.30.25 – 07.18.25

The Hammer Museum, Los Angeles

The first institutional survey of the late Noah Davis (1983–2015) charts the breadth and depth of the American artist’s relentless output. Assembling over 50 works made between 2007 and 2015, the exhibition is organized in a manner that reflects the diverse interests informing Davis’s practice including current affairs, everyday life, family histories, ancient Egyptian cosmologies, the racism of American media, art history, and architecture. 

06.08.25 – 08.31.25

Dries Van Noten, Los Angeles

Cloud Painting by Peter Sutherland showcases an exciting new body of work created between 2024 and 2025.

Peter Sutherland’s work comes from a need to document the world around him — not the world that’s curated, but the raw, in-between spaces that are often overlooked. Sutherland is drawn to everyday objects, natural landscapes, and the marks people leave behind, whether through graffiti, architecture, or movement.

05.20.25 – 06.17.25

Everson Museum of Art, NY

Filmmaker and photographer William Strobeck spent a good part of his teenage years on the Everson Museum’s Community Plaza during the 1990s. It was here that he discovered a skateboarding crew populated by “weirdos and outcasts” who, in turn, introduced him to a global diaspora of creative individuals with a similar DIY ethos and punk rock spirit.

Featuring work by: Larry Clark, Mark Gonzalez, William Strobeck, Dash Snow, Ryan McGingley, Earsnot Irak, Ari Marcopoulos, Julien Stranger, Dave Schubert, Tobin Yelland, Jonathan Cannon, and Spike Jonze.

Opie’s latest exhibition marks the New York debut of the artist’s Norwegian Mountain series, her newest body of work to date. The works, the artist has noted, are a meditation on “how the history of blue is used in art…about blue as a mourning as the planet changes so rapidly.”
