art exhibition bernard frize perrotin paris

French-born, Berlin-based artist Bernard Frize presents his 21st exhibition with Perrotin and 10th in Paris, titled “Les 26,” on view through May 30. The show features his signature geometric latticework paintings, where interlocking grids of uniform brushstrokes create hazy chromatic architectures. Works include both resin-layered canvases with overlapping bands of bright color and tempera paintings on glass with strict compositional rules—each color moving in three straight lines to form two right angles. Frize continues his practice of using utilitarian, nonsensical titles like “Vido,” “Sioc,” and “Vesem” to decenter subjective interpretation.

At Perrotin Paris, Bernard Frize Pushes Against His Own Self-Imposed Constraints

Bernard Frize’s latest exhibition, "Les 26," at Perrotin Paris marks his 21st show with the gallery and a continued exploration of his rigorous, process-driven abstraction. The exhibition features his signature interlocking grids and geometric latticework, created using wet-on-wet brushstrokes locked in resin, alongside tempera paintings on glass that follow strict linear rules. By utilizing utilitarian titles and avoiding representational forms, Frize seeks to decenter his own subjectivity, allowing the physical act of painting and the resulting optical tension to lead the viewer’s experience.

culture politics bryan stevenson equal justice

Bryan Stevenson, civil rights attorney and executive director of the Equal Justice Initiative (EJI), opened Montgomery Square in Alabama on the anniversary of the Selma to Montgomery March. The new public space commemorates the acts of courage that led to the Voting Rights Act of 1965, focusing on the Civil Rights era and the role of Montgomery's Black community, including lesser-known figures like Linda Blackmon Lowry and Sheyann Webb. Stevenson discusses the square as part of EJI's broader network of sites—including the Legacy Museum and the National Memorial for Peace and Justice—which aim to deepen public understanding of America's history of racial inequality and mass incarceration.
