## Exhibitions

### Clément Cogitore: *Ferdinandea*

Sep 5 – Oct 31, 2026 · on view

A film, videos, archive documents and engraved photographs about Ferdinandea, a volcanic island that rose off Sicily in 1831 and sank months later.

Cogitore’s first solo show with the gallery is a new arrangement of a project shown at Madre in Naples and Mucem in Marseille. The island surfaced in the Strait of Sicily in 1831, was claimed by Britain, France and the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, and soon vanished.

A 16 mm film of omens comes first, then a nine-part video mixing archive, re-enactment and fiction, and footage of a dive to the sunken bank. Photographs engraved with phrases and an engraving steeped in volcanic ash complete it.

### Robert Kushner: *Summer Sun: Open my Heart*

Sep 5 – Oct 31, 2026 · on view

Twelve pictures of flowers and wild plants from 2019–2025, in ink, oil and gold leaf, many begun during a summer in southern France.

Eleven works on Japanese washi paper and one painting on canvas. Several began in Sérignan in 2019, where Kushner, a founder of the 1970s Pattern and Decoration movement, spent three weeks drawing the wild plants around a garage studio; he finished them in New York.

He draws in India ink with a sharpened stick or brushes on thinned oil paint, then adds gold leaf, drawing on Rinpa painting, Persian miniatures and textile patterns.
