On the opening day of the Venice Biennale 2026, we turn back to a defining moment in Irving Petlin’s journey ✨

The Summer of Mary Frank (1982), presented at the Venice Biennale that year, stands as a pivotal work — where memory and presence meet a striking painterly intensity.

Layered, luminous, deeply felt: a composition that captures Petlin’s singular voice, both intimate and resonant.

On view at the gallery until May 30.

Today, the Fugues series unfolds at the gallery, with an entire room devoted to it.
A rare moment to experience the intensity of this body of work.
