Basquiat: Figures, Signs, Symbols
Rarely seen treasures from a private collection unveil Basquiat’s creative experiments in his final years Published with Pérez Art Museum Miami. Collected together here for the first time is a remarkable private collection of late works by Jean-Michel Basquiat, acquired over the past decade. These include the paintings Untitled “Skull,” In Italian, Untitled (Baptismal) and Pez Dispenser, as well as a sculpture—one of the artist’s rare forays into the three-dimensional realm. Figures, Signs, Symbols accompanies the exhibition of the same name at Pérez Art Museum Miami, an evocative location that hearkens to the artist’s Puerto Rican and Haitian ancestry. Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960–88) is one of the most successful Black visual artists in history, despite his brief career. He emerged on the New York City arts scene in the late 1970s and quickly skyrocketed to international fame, becoming one of the most important artists of his generation. Basquiat’s work and legacy continue to influence popular culture, especially art, music and fashion.

Woody De Othello: coming forth by day
A whimsical monograph dedicated to the first museum exhibition of Othello's vibrant, playful and spiritually charged ceramics Published with Pérez Art Museum Miami. Miami-born artist Woody De Othello (born 1991) presents coming forth by day, a new body of work exploring the primordial earth through ceramic and wood sculptures, tiled wall works and a large-scale bronze. The installation integrates grounding elements such as clay-painted walls, potted flora and concealed herbal scents to evoke a sensorial experience of place. Rooted in precolonial and diasporic African traditions, Othello draws on spiritual practices, nkisi power figures, Dogon ritual objects and Egyptian pyramids. His anthropomorphic forms and richly glazed finishes suggest a charged presence—objects that lean, rest or embrace as if shaped by memory and emotion. Known for stretching everyday objects into expressive, bodily forms, Othello blurs the line between figure and vessel. This exhibition, his first major solo museum show in Miami, reflects an ongoing unearthing of ancestral heritage and underscores how material and form become vessels for history, emotion and spiritual continuity.

Calida Rawles: Away with the Tides
Rawles is known for her paintings of Black people floating, often singly or in pairs, in rippling watery landscapes, at once hyper-realistic and dreamily abstracted. The sparkly element symbolizes a space of both historical trauma — recalling the death and drowning of so many enslaved Africans during the Middle Passage in the Atlantic — and healing.

Gary Simmons: Public Enemy
Gary Simmons has been stirring up the world for about thirty years... Since the late 1980s Simmons has played a key role in situating questions of race, class and identity at the center of contemporary art discourse. Drawing heavily on popular genres such as hip-hop, cult horror, cartoons and science fiction, Simmons exposes and analyzes histories of racism deeply rooted in the U.S. visual culture. Sports, cinema, literature, music, architecture and urbanism—nothing is off-limits in his effort to make a point: the perpetuation of white supremacy is alive and well."

Richard Dupont: Works/Writings 2000–2022
A career-spanning overview of Dupont’s multimedia interrogations of surveillance culture and technological ubiquity Published with PAMM. This definitive volume, spanning more than two decades, surveys the works and writings of New York–based artist Richard Dupont (born 1968), and their prescient bearing on a paradigm-shifting period of technological and cultural transformation. Much of Dupont’s work stems from a complete digital model of his body created between 2002 and 2004 and 3D body scans obtained while participating in a US military anthropometry study. This overview reveals how Dupont’s work mirrors digital technology’s infiltration of our lives and the extent to which the commodification and virtualization of the body have become commonplace in our culture of “self-surveillance.” Illustrations emphasize his works’ physical aspect, where traditional materials and techniques such as plaster and bronze casting play a role, as do the use of experimental techniques and materials such as cast polyurethane, poured silicone, 3D-printed resins, digital scanning and the manipulation of found objects.

McArthur Binion: DNA
McArthur Binion employed his tattered address book, containing nineteen years’ worth of annotated contact information, as the substrate of numerous paintings and prints in his series “DNA.” [...] While he says the address book contains “the loves, the hates, everything I am,” the paintings and prints offer only oblique clues—and even these are masked by the rigorously deployed grids. This is intimacy that invites yet frustrates scrutiny. [...] The book’s images still adequately represent a visual rhythm that feels both insistent and meditative.
