We’re still thinking about the galleries, artists, and works that made Intersect Aspen 2026 so memorable, including Gefen Gallery’s presentation of Larisa Safaryan’s “Second Wave” 🔵

Rooted in San Francisco, Gefen brings an international, multigenerational program to the fair, championing the individuality of its artists’ practices. Safaryan’s work gives that commitment a distinctive expression.

Working with eggshells, the self-taught, Los Angeles–based artist transforms a delicate material through meticulous detail, vivid color, and extraordinary precision. Her process demands sustained concentration, holding the fragility of her medium in balance with the complexity of each composition. Across her practice, the eggshell becomes a way to explore strength and vulnerability, renewal and rebirth.

“Second Wave” offers a memorable encounter with that balance, and with an artist finding expansive possibilities in an unexpected material.

A closer look at two approaches to figuration from Intersect Aspen.

In Donna Isham’s painting, a seated figure rests her face in one hand. Gold and pink marks trace her pose, while blue and green blocks of color shift around her. The longer you look, the more expressive those small changes in line and color become. Her layered gesture gives the image a sense of brutality, inviting us to look at the markings taking shape alongside the body.

Johan Andersson’s portrait holds your gaze in a different way: bright, direct eyes meet the viewer above a pale pink bubble of gum. It’s a playful detail in an image that asks to be looked at closely. His attention to the individual asks us to look closely at people who might otherwise be overlooked, and to consider the assumptions we bring to an image.

Take a moment with the details in each work.

We were excited to welcome first-time exhibitor Markowicz Fine Art to Intersect Aspen 2026.

The gallery presented a vibrant selection of contemporary work by Hunt Rettig, Rachel Bergeret, Annalù, Beau Simmons, Antoine Dufilho, and others. Highlights ranged from Annalù’s luminous “Dreamcatcher – Tiffany in the Heart” to Bergeret’s fashion-inspired sculptural figures, Simmons’s images of the contemporary American West, and Dufilho’s dynamic automotive sculptures.

Established in 2010, Markowicz Fine Art represents internationally recognized and emerging artists from its locations in Miami and Southern California. The gallery came to Aspen drawn by its sophisticated collecting community, the connections between its Aspen and coastal clients, and the energy surrounding Aspen Art Week.

For the team, it was an opportunity to fall in love with Aspen.
