‘Material, Material World (Miami)’ is on view through May 30th, 2026

The painter Elaine de Kooning once said, “a painting to me is primarily a verb, not a noun, an event first and only secondarily an image.” It is the event, and its attendant discoveries and revelations, that guides this group of artists, the process alone divulging new information or affirming what they’d always known. The results, shared in Material, Material World (Miami), are sublime.

Something Borrowed, Something New showcases a diverse range of artworks produced by some of the most prominent artists of our time. Complementing these borrowed selections, this show also features exciting new pieces and creates a dialogue between the works of late 20th-century trailblazers and today’s leading global artists.
