PORTRAIT OF A FAMILY - EMILY SARGENT
@THE MET FIFTH AVENUE 01 JUL, 2025 - 08 MAR, 2026 Emily Sargent’s watercolors—recently rediscovered—capture the world with a clarity and expressiveness that were all her own. This exhibition brings her luminous work into focus, situating it within the creative, complex world of the Sargent family. This unique presentation features watercolors by Emily Sargent (1857–1936), her older brother, renowned portraitist John Singer Sargent (1856–1925), and their mother, Mary Newbold Sargent (1826–1906). As the artistic family traveled seasonally through Europe, Mary encouraged her children’s creative aspirations. The siblings had a close relationship and often sketched and painted side by side. As John Singer Sargent’s bold portraits increasingly garnered critical attention, his younger sister Emily supported his career while building a body of work of her own that remained largely unseen.

COLLECTIVE INTELLIGENCE - AGNIESZKA KURANT
@MARIAN GOODMAN GALLERY 11 JUL- 22 AUG, 2025
Marian Goodman Gallery is pleased to present COLLECTIVE INTELLIGENCE, Agnieszka Kurant’s first solo exhibition with the gallery, on view from 11 July – 22 August 2025. The show features a selection of recent works from series she’s continually expanded over the past decade.Kurant’s multidisciplinary practice explores collective and nonhuman intelligences, the future of labor and creativity, and the exploitations within digital capitalism. Her work centers on the emergence and evolution of forms shaped by collective agency, be they termite mounds, minerals, signs, tools, or social movements. In collaboration with scientists, she sets up complex systems, networks, and environments where multiple agents—molecules, bacteria, animals, AI algorithms, or human crowds—interact to generate hybrid, unstable forms undergoing constant metamorphosis, like living organisms. Oscillating between biological and digital, natural and artificial, life and nonlife, her works explore the evolution of living systems, culture and technology, transformations of the human, automation, and cybernetics.

PARABOLIC TRACES - JUYON LEE
@EPISODE GALLERY
12 JUL - 29 AUG, 2025
episode is pleased to announce its fifth exhibition Parabolic Traces, the first New York solo exhibition by Seoul-born, Brooklyn-based artist Juyon Lee. Working across photography, video, glass, light, and neon, Lee collects fragments of the intimate and impermanent—personal, digital, and transient—and reconfigures them into sculptural compositions. From screen captures to passing landscapes, each image is stretched, layered, and transformed to hold moments that resist resolution, yet persist in form and sensation. The title Parabolic Traces evokes multiple layers of meaning. Rooted in the curvature of a parabola—a shape that links points across space and time—it also draws from the scientific language of signals, receivers, and interference patterns. In this context, Lee’s sculptural surfaces operate like receivers—capturing and refracting transmissions, some intact, others interrupted—into visual echoes that evade fixed interpretation. This interplay of form and flux mirrors how impressions reverberate in nonlinear patterns, much like signals bouncing within a parabolic reflector.

REFLECTION POINT - WADE AND LETA @ROCKEFELLER CENTER
05 JUN - 21 JUL, 2025
Reflection Point, an interactive mirrored maze by Brooklyn-based artist duo Wade and Leta (Wade Jeffree and Leta Sobierajski) is now on view at Rockefeller Center! Reflection Point is a large-scale work made up of mirrored walls that create shifting pathways where space feels endless and ever-changing. Scattered throughout the maze are bold graphic shapes that function as doors that invite visitors to push through and uncover new routes - the perfect, vibrant setting for photos and playful exploration!
