Salman Toor's largest exhibition to date, "Wish Maker," opened May 2 across Luhring Augustine's Chelsea and Tribeca galleries in New York. The Chelsea space features new paintings, while the Tribeca show is the artist's first dedicated presentation of works on paper. The two-venue presentation is Toor's first major New York showing since his solo exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art in 2020, which launched him to art stardom. The article includes an interview conducted by CULTURED contributor Adam Eli, where Toor discusses his creative process, his attachment to finished paintings, and how his need to come out as queer through painting drove the development of his distinctive style.
