SARAH SZE – FEEL FREE

Posted on 2026-01-19

Throughout the exhibition in Beverly Hills, Sze redefines collage as a spatial and temporal language that moves across mediums in flux, transforming the image itself into a sculptural material. In a process of continual fragmentation and reconstruction, these works explore how our senses, emotions, and memories are conditioned by today’s media-saturated world.

Organized across three interconnected galleries, Feel Free presents spatial systems that unfold according to their own internal logic. Each room embodies a different relationship to light, material, and time, in which metamorphosis of imagery through multiple states becomes the subject—as images move across constructed forms, fall into shadow, splinter into color, and return as quiet traces. Many begin as interior visions—impressions held in memory that are recognized only when they reemerge. By linking the images on view to those we carry in our mind’s eye, Sze makes perception itself a material of her work.

ELISHEVA BIERNOFF – ELSEWHERE

Posted on 2026-01-12

This exhibition will span Biernoff’s career, featuring a representative selection of her intimately scaled paintings. Working with meticulous fidelity and care, the artist uses fine, luminous brushstrokes to create intricately painted depictions of anonymous photographs, which she sources from antique stores and online marketplaces. Biernoff paints on paper-thin plywood, replicating each detail and blemish, front and back, from the original object in a methodical process that is deeply deliberate and reflective; she only produces around four works each year. Individually mounted on handmade poplar stands, the resultant images exist at the nexus of painting, sculpture, and photography. Biernoff’s works are activated by the viewer’s close looking and emotional connection, yet they are also imbued with an inexorable sense of distance—a longing for another place, face, or moment in one’s life.

Opposite – Advent, 2025

Exhibition runs through to February 28th, 2026

HAIM STEINBACH – FIVE EASY PIECES

Posted on 2026-01-12

In five easy pieces, Steinbach introduces a new game format for his works: the “condensed” wall text and the ”condensed/spectrum” canvas works. His hello again (condensed) (2025) is based on the wall text hello again, exhibited in 2019 at the reopening of the Museum of Modern Art in New York. The arrangement of the black and white text itself has been digitally fragmented and reorganized through a repetitive throw of the dice.

Several new canvas works titled beep honk toot (condensed/spectrum) include color. They are based on the original beep honk toot (1989) wall text. Each canvas is structured by a three-by-three grid of nine square tiles. Approached as if a game board, the fragmented pieces of the font fall into the tiles, in part with the use of a random number generator. Some color spectrum tiles are integrated in the digital mixing process.
