Katherine Bradford — Flying Woman
In Flying Woman, Katherine Bradford presents a body of paintings centered on figures in motion—floating, leaping, and suspended against fields of luminous color. The exhibition highlights Bradford’s distinctive ability to balance vulnerability and strength, using simplified forms and saturated palettes to explore freedom, risk, and emotional resilience.
Arlene Shechet — Exhibition
Shechet’s sculptures are all personality—leaning, twisting, almost breathing. She lets imperfection take the lead, and the result is pure joy.
Tacita Dean — Landscape
Tacita Dean’s Landscape is a meditation on place, time, and observation, bringing together film and drawing to slow the act of looking and reframe the natural world as something quietly monumental.
Muriel Hasbún — Tracing Terruño
Tracing Terruño presents Muriel Hasbún’s deeply personal photographic exploration of memory, displacement, and belonging. Through layered images that move between archive and lived experience, Hasbún traces the emotional and political terrain of exile, family history, and Central American identity.
Nicholas Galanin — In every language there is Land
Galanin’s work is about reclamation—of story, place, and voice. Every piece dismantles the colonial gaze with precision and quiet fire.
Sarah Sze — Timelapse
In Timelapse, Sarah Sze constructs a world in motion—where images, objects, and sound collide in constantly shifting relationships. The exhibition captures time as fragmented and layered, reflecting how meaning is built through accumulation and attention.
Tania Pérez Córdova — Generalization
Tania Pérez Córdova’s Generalization intertwines absence and presence through objects that carry traces of time, touch, and narrative. Each sculpture suggests a story—what was once there and what remains.

Jack Whitten — The Greek Alphabet Paintings
Dia Beacon stages the first full survey of Whitten’s landmark Greek Alphabet series—abstract, layered, rhythmic—bringing renewed attention to a pivotal body of work that navigated structure, ink, and gesture.
Leslie Hewitt
At Dia Bridgehampton, Leslie Hewitt’s spare compositions and sculptural works quietly blur the boundary between photography and memory—casting the everyday into poetic resonance.
