Curated by Ebony L. Haynes (), Roy DeCarava: the sound i saw was first presented together as a body of work at the Studio Museum in Harlem in 1983 and highlights the artist's unwavering exploration of the relationship between the visual and the aural. Created between the late 1940s and the 1960s, DeCarava's tonally rich silver gelatin photographs redirect the viewer's attention to the sounds of life, offering—as he noted—“images for the head and for the heart.”

It is with great sadness that we mourn the loss of Yayoi Kusama, who passed away at the age of 97.

Kusama devoted her life to an international career as an avant-garde artist, working primarily in the visual arts while also extending her practice to performance, novels, poetry, and other forms of expression. She continued to paint until shortly before her passing, never setting aside her brush, and remaining steadfast in her lifelong belief that love can save the world.

“It's been one of the great privileges of my professional life to have been able to represent Yayoi Kusama's extraordinary art for the last fifteen years. The last time Kusama visited New York, a city where she lived for many years, was in 2013. During that visit, she opened the first of many exhibitions in our galleries that had hour-long lines for the chance to experience her work. Her steadfast message of love and peace has now reached millions of admirers around the globe. At the time of her passing, Kusama was, without a doubt, the most famous living artist in the world. I will miss her terribly.” —David Zwirner

Emma McIntyre's third solo exhibition with David Zwirner, titled This body holds / swamp stuff, opens on Friday, September 18 at . Learn more and plan your visit: https://zwrnr.art/4zzSO2H

Thrumming with color and gestural energy, McIntyre's abstractions explore the alchemical possibilities of the painted medium. Following her 2023 and 2025 solo shows in New York and Hong Kong, this exhibition of new paintings and works on paper further broadens her ongoing experiments with medium, scale, and hue.

+ Stay tuned for updates on a forthcoming episode of the Dialogues podcast featuring Emma McIntyre and Mark Godfrey speaking on the work of Sigmar Polke.

Next month, visit Louis Fratino's first exhibition with us since joining the gallery earlier this year. Opening in London on Friday, September 18, the presentation features all new paintings that showcase the artist's propensity for glorifying the everyday through expressive figuration and an exuberant palette of bold colors.

As Fratino explains in his recent interview with BOMB Magazine “I want the viewer to empathize with a kind of vulnerability…. In this world, which is so prescriptive, I think clinging to painting's ability to mean everything and nothing at the same time is more pertinent than ever.”

+ Prior to the opening in London, Fratino's work will be on view through Sunday, September 6 at the Baltimore Museum of Art in Fratino and Matisse: To See This Light Again, which juxtaposes figure studies, interiors, still-lifes, and self-portraits by both artists.

Coming very soon: a Nate Lowman solo exhibition featuring new shaped canvases opens Thursday, September 10, at our 19th Street gallery in New York. Learn more and plan your visit: https://zwrnr.art/4xiqSyF

Lowman has frequently created representations of universally recognizable shapes, produced in different iterations and with distinct painted surfaces and imagery. For this show, the artist explores the form of keys—objects freighted with associations of access, security, and exclusion. These works recall distinct historical registers of painting—from hard-edged geometric abstraction to loose, gestural markmaking to the flattened logic of the readymade—each a different painterly language expressed on the same recurring form.

We’re pleased to announce an upcoming solo presentation of works by Scott Kahn, opening on Thursday, September 10 at our 20th Street gallery in New York. Focusing on the artist’s singular landscapes—a genre that is central to his practice—the exhibition will bring together new and recent paintings that explore Kahn’s most enduring motifs.

As the writer and poet John Yau has observed: “Standing before a painting by Kahn, we begin to see ourselves seeing a world, which, despite its plethora of precise details, remains a mystery, like a beautiful box that cannot be opened up.”

“She is a painter whose intensity is unrivaled.… She is always pushing herself to new territory and breaking boundaries.” —Ben Luke via The Art Newspaper

Wishing a happy birthday to Marlene Dumas! Born in Cape Town, South Africa , Dumas’s work probes the complexities of identity and representation. Last year, the Musée du Louvre acquired Liaisons, making her the first living female artist represented in the museum's permanent collection. Comprising nine monumental paintings created for the Porte des Lions atrium, the installation reflects her ongoing exploration of the human face as a site of history, emotion, and shared humanity.

+ Dumas’s work is currently on view in Project a Black Planet: The Art and Culture of Panafrica at the Barbican Centre in London through Sunday, September 6. Learn more and reserve tickets: https://zwrnr.art/4yHKnll
