Kasmin is pleased to announce the gallery’s third solo exhibition of work by Alma Allen (b. 1970, USA). The exhibition brings together a combination of new sculpture in bronze, cast in the artist’s foundry, and works carved from stone sourced from areas surrounding his studio in Tepotzlán, Mexico. Realized with hybrid processes both ancient and cutting-edge, Allen’s sculptures are imbued with a timeless quality while conveying a dynamic range—from works defined by their refined formal simplicity to those brimming with complex gesture.
Allen approaches sculpture by devising a series of formal parameters to foster pre-conscious and intuitive decision making via the hand, a process that complements his research into ideas relating to the structure of the physical world. This new body of work evolves various compositional and material directions explored in Allen’s recent institutional exhibition Nunca Solo at Museo Anahuacalli in Mexico City, demonstrating the artist’s ongoing experimentation into the ability of matter to embody contemplations on free will, consciousness, and the nature of time. -

Les Lalanne: Zoophites
From the Collection of Caroline Hamisky Lalanne
Curated by Paul B. Franklin April 4 – May 9, 2024 509 West 27th Street, New YorkAn exhibition in homage to the acclaimed French sculptors Claude and François-Xavier Lalanne, drawn entirely from the collection of their eldest daughter, Caroline Hamisky Lalanne. Les Lalanne: Zoophites will include major works by these inventive artists who consistently defied art-world conventions. To celebrate the 60th anniversary of Les Lalanne’s first joint solo exhibition, which opened in Paris in June 1964, this exhibition borrows the title Zoophites, an obsolete French term for invertebrate animals that resemble plants in their appearance or growth patterns. The exhibition will be accompanied by a newly commissioned text by curator Paul B. Franklin. -
