Exhibitions

This exhibition foregrounds Argentinian-born, U.S.-based artist Liliana Porter’s decades-long consideration of “two realities”— “virtual reality” (a depiction of a thing) and the “real thing.”

This exhibition examines scale—painterly, bodily, architectural, institutional—and presence in contemporary abstract painting.
