About 150 drawings, paintings, sculptures and textiles, among them thread-on-fabric dresses shown on painted wooden mannequins, are joined by archival material and ephemera. The work is sensual and often funny, taking up language, gender, aging and the body. Caland (1931–2019) worked in Venice, California, for her last decades, and her place in the Hammer’s Made in L.A. 2016 brought her a wider audience. The show comes from the Museo Reina Sofía, Madrid, and is curated by Hannah Feldman.

Viana works across collage, sound, video and installation, mixing analog and digital collage with painting and early twentieth-century photographic processes to fill the gaps official archives leave in Afro-Brazilian history. At the center is her 13-minute film Radiola de promessa (2025), which follows daily life deep in the countryside of Maranhão, in northeast Brazil, and the reggae that carries the region’s memory. Erin Christovale curates.

Mascini, born in The Hague in 1989, treats electrical energy as her material. In Zombie, a young ceiba tree cast in copper salvaged from stripped wire in Mexico City has roots electroformed onto a cable that powers a violet LED streetlight. Facing it, the three resin sculptures of Amber Highway, like hanging moth pupae, glow amber off their own car batteries; together they form a circuit about public lighting in Los Angeles. Pablo José Ramírez curates.

Pusey (1928–2019) made geometric abstract paintings, prints and works on paper that draw on fashion, printmaking and the cities she lived in. Her Broken Construction series (1960s–1990s), which treats destruction and renewal as figures for social change, hangs with photographs, personal notes and archival material. The survey was organized by ICA Philadelphia and the Studio Museum in Harlem and curated by Hallie Ringle; Jessi DiTillio oversees the Hammer’s presentation.
