BOY WITH A BASKET OF FRUIT - CARAVAGGIO

@THE MORGAN LIBRARY & MUSEUM 16 JAN, 2026 - 19 APR, 2026

This exhibition celebrates the extraordinary loan from the Galleria Borghese in Rome of the painting Boy with a Basket of Fruit, an important early work by Michelangelo Merisi, known as Caravaggio (1571–1610). Trained in his native Lombardy, Caravaggio brought to Rome a tradition of naturalism that stretched back to Leonardo da Vinci’s work in Milan. He combined this tradition, however, with a revolutionary approach to painting that shattered the illusion of art and instead celebrated the artifice of the studio. Discover more

THE INVISIBLE DOG GOES FOR A WALK @HASHIMOTO CONTEMPORARY NYC

17 JAN 2026 - 7 FEB 2026

Hashimoto Contemporary is pleased to present The Invisible Dog Goes for a Walk, a group exhibition  featuring artists and the collection of The Invisible Dog, co-curated by Lucien Zayan, founder-director of The Invisible Dog and Risa Shoup.  “Ideas don’t belong to a place. They are never rooted, only found, and belong only to the mind that’s willing to see and embrace them.Now that the invisible Dog has closed its doors on Bergen Street, and it has decided to go for a long walk, many of the artists have been reminded the important lesson of anyone who moves away from their childhood home;  that a house is just bricks and mortar, but home is memories in the mind and the continuation of living breathing family wherever they may be. It is an idea. Discover more

C L O S E R examines the phenomenology of first encounter—the moment in which a viewer approaches an artwork and is subtly compelled to cross its threshold. The works in this exhibition operate through strategies of seduction and deferral: they draw the eye inward, asking the viewer to slow their pace, recalibrate their attention, and enter into an intimate, prolonged engagement. Through meticulous processes, technical precision, and conceptually layered structures, each work withholds as much as it reveals, prompting a mode of looking that is both analytical and affective.

VISITORS EMERGING FROM AN INCONVENIENTLY PLACED PORTAL - DAKOTA GEARHART @FLUSHING MEADOWS CORONA PARK, QUEEN 26 NOV, 2025 - 13 NOV, 2026

Madison Square Park Conservancy is excited to commission Taos, NM-based artist Larry Bell for our Fall 2025 exhibition. Across his nearly seven-decade career, Bell is renowned for his ability to harness the qualities of glass to create distinct optical effects. Using architectural glass and color, Bell creates minimalist forms that shift with naturally evolving environmental conditions. Bell is also one of the pioneers of the Light and Space movement that emerged in Southern California in the 1960s. His work uses atmosphere as a material, which alongside the reflective and transmissive properties of glass, leads to both subtle and complex perceptual conditions.
