Kamrooz Aram is the subject of multiple major exhibitions in early 2026, including a solo show at Alexander Gray Associates in New York, a presentation at Nature Morte in Mumbai for Mumbai Art Week, and a significant inclusion in the 2026 Whitney Biennial. The artist, known for his work with the grid, uses painting to explore the connections between Western modernist abstraction and non-Western decorative traditions, particularly from Western Asia.
The Leonard Pearlstein Gallery at Drexel University's Antoinette Westphal College of Media Arts & Design has announced its Fall 2025 exhibition, "Of the Grid: Systems + Structures in Contemporary Art," running from October 14 to December 15. The show features 36 artists working across media including photography, video, drawing, weaving, sculpture, embroidery, printmaking, painting, book arts, and interactive installation, with works that use the grid as a formal, conceptual, or narrative device. Co-curated by gallery director Mark Stockton and Cindy Stockton Moore, the exhibition includes a dynamic mix of Philadelphia-based and international artists, with highlighted pieces such as Jacob C. Hammes's IKEA-hacked fountain, Anne Schaefer's optical color window installation, and a suspended quilt by Jody Graff.
