SOSPIRO - JEM PERUCCHINI @DAVID ZWIRNER
06 NOV, 2026 - 19 DEC, 2026 David Zwirner is pleased to announce an exhibition of new works by Italian, Ethiopian-born painter Jem Perucchini (b. 1995), opening at the gallery’s Tribeca location in New York. Following recent solo presentations at Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo, Turin, and Centro Andaluz de Arte Contemporáneo, Seville, this will be the artist’s first exhibition in the United States. The exhibition takes its title from a painting on view, Sospiro (2026), which translates from Italian as “sigh.” A sigh—at once a breath, a pause, a release, a gesture—holds significance for Perucchini because of its qualities both essential and transient, audible and invisible. As the artist describes, this fleeting moment of vitality represents “the passage between the inner self and the external world, between soul and body, between what is held within and what is released.”

THROUGH TREE AND SKY - COLUMBIA FIERO
20 SEPT, 2026 - 14 NOV, 2026 Painted cloths and mixed media expand throughout and above, a realignment of vision with the knowledge of memory in the space of a community garden oasis. The installation is a conduit and a comment on how we do not often “see” movement in the workplace and at home. The garden is a living, growing space for things and for people, a place where people can go and exist in, where community gathers and art is shared. For this installation, the experience of the artwork is the completion of the art itself. Discover more
