# Kerry James Marshall: *The Histories*

Sep 18, 2026 – Jan 24, 2027 · on view

About seventy works from four decades by the American painter, his first exhibition in France, ending with eight paintings made for it.

Organized by the Royal Academy of Arts in London with the Kunsthaus Zürich, the show follows Marshall’s work in eleven groups from 1980 to today: early pictures such as Invisible Man (1986), large canvases on the Middle Passage, barbershop and park scenes that answer Manet and Seurat, the Souvenirs and Vignette series, imagined portraits of figures like Harriet Tubman, and the ever-growing sculpture Wake.

The eight new paintings turn to little-known episodes of African history, including the slave trade.
