art sculpture shows new york

A year after lamenting the dominance of safe, decorative painting in New York galleries, art critic Andrew Russel observes a decisive shift toward sculpture and installation in 2026. The Whitney Biennial epitomizes this trend, alongside major shows like Carol Bove’s survey at the Guggenheim Museum and Michael Heizer’s largest indoor "Negative Sculpture" at Gagosian 21st Street. Two exhibitions spotlight neglected aspects of Isa Genzken’s work: Galerie Buchholz focuses on her "Projects for Outside," while Zwirner Tribeca presents her "world receivers" concrete sculptures. Russel also highlights Paul Chan’s "breathers" at Greene Naftali and three standout shows—Robert Gober at Matthew Marks, Felix Beaudry at Situations, and a pairing of Hans Haacke and Louise Lawler at Maxwell Graham—as essential viewing alongside the Biennial.

Andrea Fraser and her 92-year-old mother, Carmen de Monteflores, are showing work side by side in the 2024 Whitney Biennial at the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York. This is Fraser's third time in the biennial, but de Monteflores's first museum exhibition after abandoning her art career in 1970 due to repeated rejections. Fraser presents five wax sculptures of toddlers, while de Monteflores shows exuberant, monumental shaped canvases of heads and bodies from the 1960s. The mother-daughter duo's participation came about after Fraser sent images of her mother's stored paintings to biennial co-curator Marcela Guerrero, leading to a joint invitation.
