Work by LuYang is included in the Rubin Museum’s group exhibition “Reimagine: Himalayan Art Now,” on view through October 6th, 2024.

On the occasion of the Rubin’s 20th anniversary, Reimagine: Himalayan Art Now transforms the entire Museum with new commissions, some site-specific, and existing works juxtaposed with objects from the Museum’s collection, inviting new ways of encountering traditional Himalayan art.

Through a wide range of media, including painting, sculpture, sound, video, installation, performance, and more, the artists explore their personal and collective histories and call attention to themes such as the fluidity of identity, spiritual practices, sense of belonging, grief, memory, and reclamation. The artists also offer critical and thoughtful commentary on issues facing humanity across time.

Now Representing Allan Wexler

Jane Lombard Gallery is proud to announce the representation of New-York based artist Allan Wexler. The artist will have his debut exhibition with the gallery in January 2025. 

Allan Wexler has worked in the fields of architecture, design, and fine art for over fifty years. In the late 1960s he was an early member of a group of architects and artists who questioned the perceived divide between art and design disciplines. They called themselves non-architects or paper architects. Over the following years, Wexler continued to radically interrogate the built environment and our habitation of it often with interwoven themes of ritual and connectivity. Performative activations such as Coffee Seeks Its Own Level (1990) and his 2006 commissioned public work Two Too Large Tables located at the Hudson River Park in New York, are key examples that highlight the tenets of the artist's practice. A catalogue of Wexler's work and creative process was published in 2017 by Lars Müller entitled, Absurd Thinking: Between Art and Design. The book features projects developed across the artist's career that mediate the gap between fine and applied art using the mediums of architecture, sculpture, photography, painting, and drawing.
