Henry Art Gallery

This exhibition brings together contemporary artworks across media that explore the poetics and politics of everyday life. Using the day-to-day as both material and subject, these works explore how the ordinary and seemingly incidental can become a powerful source for artistic inquiry, critical reflection, and imagination.

This exhibition showcases Helen Frankenthaler's printmaking career, featuring works from early experiments to later technical innovations, highlighting her collaborative ethos and how she reimagined the possibilities of both painting and printmaking.

This Viewpoints presentation features Learoyd’s large-scale photograph of a dead grey reef shark in the Henry’s permanent collection. This photograph draws from lineages of scientific photography and still life across media, resulting in a picture that surfaces entanglements between traditions of imaging and practices of extraction from land, people, and other living creatures.
