THEASTER GATES - DAVE: ALL MY RELATIONS

@GAGOSIAN 26 MAR - 02 MAY, 2026 Gagosian is pleased to present Dave: All My Relations, an exhibition organized by Theaster Gates that celebrates David Drake (c. 1801–1874), an enslaved ceramicist from Edgefield, South Carolina, known as Dave the Potter. The exhibition traces Dave’s impact on Gates’s own practice and serves to commemorate the gift of a historic work by Dave from Gates’s personal collection to the artist’s descendants. That vessel will be shown together with another recently returned to Dave’s family and alongside two new works by Gates. Dave: All My Relations opens on March 26 at Gagosian’s Park & 75 location in New York. Discover more

Our Show

MINERAL MERIDIAN - HEATH WAE

03 APR - 22 MAY 2026

CARVALHO announces the opening of Mineral Meridian, Australian artist Heath Wae’s inaugural solo exhibition with the gallery and first in New York. Working with distilled, hand-foraged materials, Wae constructs his paintings from compounds whose origins remain active within them, giving rise to surfaces that register both physical density and temporal charge. Rather than resolving into fixed image, these works remain in a state of material transition, carrying forward the conditions of their origin into the present of the work. Mineral Meridian opens on April 2 from 6–8pm, with the artist in attendance, and remains on view through May 22.
