New JB Blunk Monograph

Walking into Helena Foster’s “Time Honoured” at Kasmin, you’re met with a hush—a sacred quiet that wraps around each painting like breath held in contemplation. Though it marks the first solo show in New York for the London-based painter, Foster’s presence feels neither new nor foreign. Her work carries the gravity of ancestral memory, the lyricism of oral storytelling, and the immediacy of the present. Through her meticulous layering of oil on linen, paper, and vellum, she offers something rare: paintings that speak not in proclamations but in visual whispers—proverbs rendered in earth tones and radiant light.

Kasmin, in collaboration with The Sculpture Committee of The Fund for Park Avenue and NYC Parks’ Art in the Parks, announces an exhibition of 10 major sculptures by Alma Allen (b. 1970, Utah), which will be installed along Park Avenue in New York from May until September 2025. Unique bronze and onyx sculptures, including examples reaching over 10 feet tall and realized especially for the exhibition, will be on view at eight sites that span nearly 20 blocks of the Park Avenue Malls between East 52nd and East 70th Streets. This public exhibition is Allen’s largest outdoor installation to date.
