Olaf Metzel
‘Mondrian Ambiente’
Friday, October 16th, 6 - 8 pm

In his fifth solo exhibition at Wentrup, Olaf Metzel takes on modern architecture and design. Mondrian Ambiente is a formal exploration, or rather the formal exposure, of objects and ideas. In it, Metzel subjects the supposed clarity of modernist form and order to the forces that have long defined his work: irregularity, fragmentation and ambiguity.

Across disciplines, Metzel’s material is made illegible, but tangible. In his sculptures, he turns his subjects against themselves, twists, warps and crushes them, distorting the clean, symmetrical structures they claim to depict, breaking their straight lines and stripping them of their familiarity and beauty to the point of irritability. But as Loos, another grandfather of modernity, pondered, architecture should please everyone, and art: no one.

We are pleased to share Anastasia Samoylova’s solo exhibition at Gallerie d’Italia, opening next week in Turin. presents Anastasia Samoylova. Harbor, an exhibition curated by Emanuela Mazzonis di Pralafera and open to the public from 22 October 2026 to 7 February 2027.

Samoylova pursues her own photographic analysis, revealing the soul of seven European port cities: Genoa, Venice, Rotterdam, Marseille, Lisbon, Athens and Istanbul. “Photography is a medium that compresses time and space into a single frame,” says the artist. Time and space are key elements in the composition of a photograph, just as they are in the development of port cities
Ports are structural spaces that have evolved in time and space. They are a nexus of transformations, intersections, dynamism, contradictions, inclusions and exclusions, wealth and poverty, past, present and future. They are places of temporal and spatial transition, characterised by unstoppable commercial expansion, the threat of climatic instability, the challenges of migration and the vastness of visual saturation. 

Samoylova captures this euphoria of sounds, colours, shapes, shadows, light, solids and voids with her camera, offering a rather unique glimpse of the ports she has chosen. With the kaleidoscopic vision that sets her work apart, which conveys the subject through the overlapping of various visual layers, her pictures invite us to pause, to look closely and to take the time needed to observe them. 

Working within a documentary tradition, the photographer creates images that are both conceptually rigorous and visually poetic. The work resists instantaneous consumption, instead rewarding prolonged engagement through layers of observation, ambiguity and meaning.

Opening Wednesday, October 14th, 5:30pm
On view: 15 October 2026 - 11 April 2027

We are pleased to share that Magnus Plessen is taking part in the group exhibition ‘BODY. ASPEKTE DES KÖRPERLICHEN.’ opening today at the Germanisches National Museum in Nürnberg. 

Selected works from the Spengler Foundation place the human body at the centre of artistic exploration across seven decades, from 1950 to 2020. The exhibition explores this focus from two perspectives: Art for the Body presents works that have an immediate effect on the viewer’s senses and raise awareness of one’s own bodily experiences. Images of the Body brings together objects that depict the human body in multiple facets and encourage reflection on social and personal patterns of perception.

At the heart of the exhibition lies the realisation that the human body is not merely an object but a prerequisite for the reception of art. The exhibition invites visitors to establish a connection between the artwork and the viewer, whether through their own sensory experience or through an engagement with images of the body that reveal social conventions.

While disaster photography often relies on images of sudden, spectacular destruction, Anastasia Samoylova deliberately avoids these visual clichés. Her photographic expression instead generates a form of low-level dread. Across her coastal imagery, a crucial distinction emerges between ‘weather,’ referring to immediate phenomena such as storms, rainfall, and flooding, and ‘climate,’ which operates both as a longer environmental condition and as a psychological atmosphere reflecting a collective state of mind.

Some encounters stick with you. Others find their way onto canvas. This Frieze week, Brazilian artist Anderson Asteclines and Frieze’s Matthew McLean for a conversation on the memories, q***r encounters and personal histories behind his paintings. From his childhood in Brasília to London’s parks, explore how intimacy, identity and longing shape his work - and how layering, smudging and erasing bring figures into view before they slip away again.

Desire Moheb-Zandi
‘Improvisation’, 2026
High Line, New York City

Desire Moheb-Zandi partnered with fashion brand Veronica Beard for their new’ Trailblazers’ collection and installed an interactive public loom piece for their launch party.

The installation came from the idea of weaving together and the power of collective making. The communal loom was installed over the period of a few days in New York City’s High Line, the iconic green passage floating above Manhattan, like a thread running through the city. On the High Line, everyone can connect with nature and Moheb-Zandi intended for her temporary installation to create another opportunity for pause within the noise of the metropolis.

Guests gathered around the loom, weaving and having conversations. After the event, the loom stayed on the High Line and the piece continued to change overtime, until three days later, when there was no space left to weave. The loom is now being installed in Veronica Beard’s SoHo store window to celebrate the ‘Trailblazers’ collection.
