Judith Bernstein at Art Basel

Booth D15 June 17 – 22, 2025 Kasmin returns to Art Basel in Basel with a solo presentation of work by New York-based artist Judith Bernstein (b. 1942), on view in the Feature sector. Bernstein will exhibit a rarely-seen 22-foot canvas painting for the first time—The Dance (After Matisse) (1993)—which was realized in direct response to Henri Matisse’s pair of Dance paintings (1909-10). A curated selection of charcoals on paper will also be featured, including a regrouping of anthropomorphic screw drawings first shown in a historic solo exhibition at the Brooks Jackson Iolas Gallery in 1978.

Diana Al-Hadid at Frieze Los Angeles

February 20 – 23, 2025 Kasmin returns to Frieze Los Angeles in February 2025 with a solo presentation of new wall panels and a sculpture by Diana Al-Hadid (b. 1981). In the series of panels, Al-Hadid explores the interplay of sky and landscape as a compositional foundation for her richly allegorical work. Known for her alchemical approach to material, Al-Hadid employs a controlled dripping technique, interlacing mass and void through complex layers of polymer gypsum, fiberglass, pigments, and metal leaf. By engaging with architectural forms—referencing ruins, historical structures, and sacred spaces—the work considers the impermanence of civilization and the ambiguous presence of the human figure. As they invoke ghostly apparitions of art historical characters and landscapes, Al-Hadid’s abstracted sculptural narratives allude to themes of memory, empire, and migration. View More

Tina Barney at ADAA: The Art Show

October 30 – November 2, 2024 Kasmin is delighted to return to ADAA: The Art Show with a solo presentation of work by influential American photographer Tina Barney. Featuring rarely- and never-before-exhibited works, the presentation explores the theme of family as a throughline that runs across five decades of the artist’s career and coincides with Tina Barney: Family Ties, her forthcoming retrospective at the Jeu de Paume in Paris.

Nengi Omuku at Frieze London

October 9 – 13, 2024 For the 2024 edition of Frieze London’s curated Artist-to-Artist section, Nigerian artist Nengi Omuku has been nominated by Yinka Shonibare to present a solo project at the fair. Comprising three new paintings made on sanyan, an Aso-oke fabric traditionally crafted by the Yoruba people, Omuku’s work will be suspended within the booth so visitors can view the works in the round, thereby experiencing both the artist’s painting and the handspun quality of the cloth that is so integral to its meaning. The presentation immediately follows Omuku’s first solo institutional exhibition, The Dance of the People and the Natural World at Hastings Contemporary and Arnolfini, and is co-organized by Kasmin, New York and Pippy Houldsworth Gallery, London.

Judith Bernstein: Angry Bitches

Independent Art Fair May 11 – 14, 2023 Kasmin is thrilled to present ANGRY BITCHES, the first focused exhibition of Judith Bernstein’s Word Drawings (1989-2009) on the occasion of the Independent Art Fair in May 2023. Expressionistically rendered in charcoal on paper, these works depict texts in an explosively gestural manner, recalling the artist’s iconic anthropomorphic screw drawings from 1969 onwards, as well as Signature Piece (1986), a mural-scaled drawing of the artist’s own name. Bernstein’s choices of words range from the stately Truth, Justice, and Liberty to the more sinister Evil and Fear (all 1995), and the humorous and outrageous Angry Bitches (2009). View More

Lee Krasner: Charcoals

Art Basel 2021 September 21 – 26, 2021 On the occasion of Art Basel 2021, Kasmin is pleased to present a solo exhibition of significant early charcoal works on paper by Lee Krasner, which represent the artist’s first foray into abstraction. This presentation features groundbreaking charcoal drawings created between 1937 and 1940, which Krasner realized while studying under Hans Hofmann in his eponymous School of Fine Arts in New York. Departing from her early representational paintings and drawings, Krasner immersed herself in the principles of Modernism and Cubism that were espoused by Hofmann, who was one of the most influential early catalysts in the development of the Abstract Expressionist movement in the US.

Jane Freilicher: Nudes

ADAA: The Art Show February 28 – March 4, 2018 For the 2018 ADAA: The Art Show, Paul Kasmin Gallery presents an intimate selection of female nudes by the late American painter, Jane Freilicher (1924 - 2014), whose estate the gallery now represents. Freilicher, a leading figure of the New York School, was a prolific and much-admired representational artist. This will be the first time her nudes, mostly from the 1960s, will be shown exclusively; many of which have never been exhibited. View More

Les Lalanne

FOG: Design + Art January 11 – 14, 2018 Paul Kasmin Gallery is pleased to announce its inaugural exhibition at the FOG Design+Art fair in San Francisco with a solo presentation of sculpture by Les Lalanne, January 11 - 14, 2018. Inspired by Yves Saint Laurent’s music room (from the designer’s apartment at 55 rue de Babylone, Paris, for which he commissioned over a dozen of Claude’s bronze mirrors) the exhibition brings together works from 1986 to 2017. Highlights include François-Xavier’s ‘Gorille Derange,’ (2007/2010) and Claude’s surrealist ‘Table aux Serpents,’ (2017) which has never before been exhibited in the USA. View More

Lee Krasner: Solstice Series

ADAA: The Art Show March 1 – 5, 2017 Paul Kasmin is honored to present a selection of work from Lee Krasner’s Solstice Series at ADAA: The Art Show 2017. During the 1980s, Krasner made twenty-one collage paintings that incorporated and re-contextualized fragments of earlier work. Towards the end of her five-decade career, she continued to push the boundaries of her practice with the Solstice Series, revisiting and cannibalizing older works and processes, while demonstrating an acute understanding of language as an integral element of the self.
