Girls’ Club Collection presents Home Sweet Home, an exhibition from the collection of Francie Bishop Good and David Horvitz that looks to the domestic sphere for insight and influence.
Historically assigned to the care and management of women, the home is simultaneously a place of comfort and confinement. That dualism is an endless source of discussion and articulation.
Home is a nostalgic idea. For many it is full of sweet memories and the innocence and levity of youth. For others, home is a conflict zone that must be navigated carefully and delicately.

Morsi came of age in the 1940s and was part of the Alexandria School, a key cultural movement that placed the Egyptian city on the map as an emerging Mediterranean metropole in the postwar period.

Joan Didion: What She Means
Organized by critically acclaimed writer and New Yorker contributor Hilton Als, the exhibition features approximately fifty artists, including Betye Saar, Vija Celmins, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Maren Hassinger, Silke Otto-Knapp, Ana Mendieta, and Pat Steir, among many others. The more than 200 objects and artworks include family heirlooms, paintings, ephemera, photographs, sculptures, videos, and footage from a number of the films for which Didion authored screenplays.

Yayoi Kusama: LOVE IS CALLING
LOVE IS CALLING is the largest and the most immersive and kaleidoscopic of the artist’s Infinity Mirror Rooms. Representing the culmination of her artistic achievements, it exemplifies the breadth of her visual vocabulary—from the signature polka dots and soft sculptures to brilliant colors, the spoken word, and, most importantly, endless reflections and the illusion of space. The darkened, mirrored room is illuminated by inflatable, tentacle-like forms—covered in the artist’s characteristic polka dots—that extend from the floor and ceiling, gradually changing colors. As visitors walk through the installation, a sound recording of Kusama reciting a love poem in Japanese plays continuously. Written by the artist, the poem’s title translates to Residing in a Castle of Shed Tears. Exploring enduring themes including life and death, the poem poignantly expresses Kusama’s hope to spread a universal message of love through her art.

HERNAN BAS: THE CONCEPTUALISTS

The Bass announces Hernan Bas: The Conceptualists, on-view beginning December 4, 2023 and through May 5, 2024, an exhibition of paintings that explore conceptual art as a permissive realm for creative behavior and an inviting space for queerness.
In his paintings, drawings and installations, Miami-based artist Hernan Bas (b. 1978) creates intricately detailed scenes that invite viewers to decipher an astounding number of visual references. His works often involve a single male or group of male figures caught in moments of stasis, in apparent introspection or still repose. All other action surrounding the character is seemingly suspended for the artist’s and viewers’ thoughtful study.
