First Sun is a majestic painted aluminum sculpture of a hybrid human-scarab figure. Monira Al Qadiri (b. 1983, Dakar, Senegal), reimagined the ancient Egyptian deity Khepri—god of the rising sun—as a contemporary monument. For the artist, the artwork underscores the modern divide between humans and the natural world and reminds us of ancient cultures in which animals were revered.

Eerdmans presents Color Tryst, an exhibition of new work by contemporary painter Margaret Kennedy. Kennedy's works function as studies of bold, modern abstraction, building on layers upon layers of paint and process. Guided by intuition rather than rigid planning, the memory of her primary layers of paint lingers in the essence of the final product as color shines through the many coats and blends cohesively together. Her artwork is a palimpsest of her paintbrush.

Berry Campbell presents Lynne Drexler: A Painted Aria. The exhibition celebrates one of the most impassioned periods in Drexler’s career, when her lifelong devotion to music became inseparable from her art. During the mid-1970s, Drexler visited the Metropolitan Opera as often as three times a week. Enraptured by the soaring operas of Wagner and the power of Beethoven, she transformed sound and drama into color, rhythm, and form that reverberate with music itself. This exhibition brings together canvases and works on paper from this pivotal period.

This autumn marks the first exhibition by Spanish artist Cristina Iglesias at Hauser & Wirth since joining the gallery. Iglesias is known for her unique sculptural vocabulary developed over four decades, creating immersive and experiential environments that reference and unite architecture, literature, psychology, mechanics, natural elements and site-specific content. Combining the conventional matter of sculpture— familiar materials such as glass, steel, bronze—with non-traditional materials like water and sound, Iglesias has forged an extraordinary visual language that feels simultaneously unexpected and inevitable. Coinciding with her London debut at Hauser & Wirth, Cristina Iglesias will also have a solo exhibition at Fundació Catalunya La Pedrera in Barcelona, Spain, from 9 October 2025 – 25 January 2026 curated by James Lingwood.

Neither Here, Nor There – The Migrant Body is an immersive installation in which spectators traverse the length of an illuminated wall, their movement shadowed by the gradual emergence of silhouetted figures behind its surface. At times a single body materializes; at others, multiple forms drift together in disquieting concert. Their gestures — at once delicate and insistent — reach outward as if to breach the partition, to press a palm against its resistance, or to signal across its opaque divide. These elusive interactions evoke recognition sought yet deferred. These apparitional figures, dissolving almost as they appear, speak to the precariousness of memory. The bodies move as memory moves: sometimes searingly vivid, other times receding, never wholly still. They carry the psychic weight of dislocation and exile, and the inward strain of holding fast to what cannot — or should not — be surrendered. Neither Here, Nor There – The Migrant Body becomes a purgatorial chamber in which memory, time, and presence converge.

Inspired by Baroque paintings, sculptures, and drawings at the AGO, in her first solo museum exhibition, American artist Jesse Mockrin radically re-envisions familiar historical subjects—Bathsheba, Solomon, and Daphne among them—through her own contemporary, feminist lens. Urgent and subversive, Mockrin’s closely cropped compositions reveal the unsettling and uncanny dramas buried in the art historical canon.  Curated by Adam Harris Levine, the AGO’s Associate Curator of European Art, this exhibition will feature more than 12 new large-scale paintings and works on paper, installed alongside paintings, drawings, and sculptures from the AGO’s European Collection.

In 1943, Peggy Guggenheim organized 31 Women, the first exhibition in the United States devoted entirely to women artists. More than eighty years later, 9 Women, 20th Century takes up the spirit of that landmark show and extends it. The exhibition brings together works by nine women who made distinct contributions to the major artistic movements of the past century, many of whom remain overlooked today.

HB381 presents True Romance, a solo exhibition by Oslo-based ceramicist Lin Wang (b. 1985, China). Wang is especially known for her production of large-scale still life installations and sculptural assemblages which investigate the corporeality and historic resonance of porcelain. Over centuries, porcelain’s combination of a kaolin-rich white clay body with deep cobalt glazes has registered the ongoing effects of contact and trade, as well as the phantasmic projections of a long-standing dialog between East and West. Working between China and Norway, Wang’s interest in this interchange holds personal significance, tinged by her own wanderlust, homesickness, and experiences of cultural discovery.

Present Spaces is a solo exhibition of abstract landscapes that illuminate the intersection of place, emotion, and personal presence. This collection is an invitation to slow down and step into a moment of peace.

Through vibrant yet peaceful paintings, this exhibition explores what it means to be fully here, grounded, and embodied. Each painting becomes a site of reflection, where color, texture, and horizon lines create space for stillness. This connection to the natural world brings a sense of clarity and confidence, allowing vulnerability to become a powerful form of presence.

Baker—Hall presents Everything Mixing Always, Regina Durante Jestrow’s first solo exhibition with the gallery, on view September 6–October 11, 2025. Featuring new textile-based works, the show draws from the spiderweb quilt pattern—layering historical symbolism, personal meaning, and geometric abstraction. Durante Jestrow explores themes of intuition, protection, and labor through movement-driven compositions inspired by music and improvisation. Her materials—hand-dyed and secondhand fabrics, sequins, neoprene—reflect a commitment to sustainability and place. Based in Miami, Durante Jestrow reimagines American quilt traditions through abstraction and experimental processes, blending the spirit of folk art with contemporary concerns around memory, rhythm, and emotional resonance.

Alison Jacques presents Sites, a solo exhibition of work by Scottish artist Carol Rhodes (b.1959; d.2018). Spanning nearly 20 years, many of the exhibited works have never been seen in London. In 1994, Rhodes began a body of highly distinctive paintings, which she proceeded to develop over two decades, until motor neurone disease made it finally impossible for her to paint and draw.

I did many self-portraits. And then at one point I decided I would use letters, and I did...I started with a portrait that said, ‘I am.’ And I decided that was as much me as my real face and figure.’ - Luchita Hurtado. Over the course of her eight-decade career, Venezuelan-born, Los Angeles-based artist Luchita Hurtado (1920 – 2020) committed to a lifelong journey of personal and artistic evolution defined by ceaseless experimentation. The first exhibition devoted to the artist at Hauser & Wirth in Los Angeles, ‘Yo Soy’ (I Am) brings together paintings and drawings from a pivotal moment in Hurtado’s career: Inspired by the surge of feminist activism in LA, the artist held her first solo exhibition at the Woman’s Building in February 1974, debuting her Linear Language series of expressive, geometric word paintings. A half century on, ‘Yo Soy’ revisits that landmark presentation and includes never-before-seen works from the series it introduced. Through her vibrant, abstract canvases—some cut up and meticulously resewn—visitors will be able to experience the depth of Hurtado’s exploration of pattern, mysticism, the earth and the cosmos.
