Michael Werner Gallery is pleased to announce the opening of Hurvin Anderson: Passenger Opportunity at the Pérez Art Museum, Miami. The exhibition comprises a new multi-panel painting, developed as a response to the murals of Jamaican artist Carl Abrahams installed at the Norman Manley International Airport, Kingston in 1985. Abraham’s murals were encountered by Anderson during his travels between Jamaica and Miami in the lead up to his participation in the Kingston Biennial in 2022.

The exhibition ECCENTRIC explores the multifaceted spectrum of identity and humanity. The artists experiment in a variety of different media, using the most diverse materials and techniques. They observe and process on their motifs and subjects from the most surprising perspectives. They distort, deform or liquefy figures and forms, combining them into hybrid or amorphous compositions. Curated by Eva Karcher and Bernhart Schwenk, featuring Issy Wood among others.

Maillol Welcomes Lüpertz, or is it the other way around? The Musée Maillol presents, from November 17 to March 23, a unique dialogue within its permanent collection between these two artists. The German master of neo-expressionism, known for challenging classical perfection, chooses his lineage: Maillol, who, under an appearance of effortless harmony, also concealed many daring artistic innovations.

HEREDIUM, the leading multicultural space in Daejeon, Korea, opens Markus Lüpertz: Sins, Myths, and Other Questions on 1 September 2024. The exhibition features a selection from four decades of the legendary artist’s fundamental body of work, which rethinks “the very concept of painting and sculpture through reinterpretations of ancient Greek mythology.” His ideas and inspiration are often rooted in the history of painting and its modes of presentation, consistently refined as he continues to reinvent classicism and engage with tradition.
