TEFAF New York 2024

Lisson Gallery returns to TEFAF New York to participate in the tenth edition of the fair, bringing a selection of new and historical work by a selection of the gallery’s artists, including Olga de Amaral, Carmen Herrera, Hiroshi Sugimoto, Anish Kapoor, Richard Long and Masaomi Yasunaga, among others.

A centerpiece of the presentation is Carmen Herrera’s Siete, an oil on burlap painting dating back to 1949. Created during Herrera’s transformative years in Paris (1948-1954), Siete marks a pivotal moment in the artist’s journey from figuration to abstraction. Alongside this, a Japanese paper, linen, gesso and acrylic work by the Colombian artist Olga de Amaral will be on display, ahead of the artist’s first major retrospective in Europe at Fondation Cartier pour l'art contemporain, Paris, France, this fall. Works by both Carmen Herrera and Olga de Amaral are also presented in AdrianoPedrosa’s International Art Exhibition, Stranieri Ovunque – Foreigners Everywhere, for the 60th La Biennale di Venezia until November 2024.

Coinciding with the artist’s first exhibition with Lisson Gallery, Hiroshi Sugimoto will present Opticks 250 (2018) at the gallery’s TEFAF booth. His concurrent exhibition, Optical Allusion, runs from 2 May – 2 August at 504 West 24 th Street, and showcases this series of photographic prints which utilize a prism to disperse white light into its seven primary colors, as well as numerous spectral variations and nuances in between.
