Helène Aylon: Undercurrent
NOW OPEN
Helène Aylon: Undercurrent brings together twenty works from Aylon’s fifty-year career to emphasize the strong undercurrent of receptivity and resilience that unifies her oeuvre. Using a wide range of media and techniques, including painting, performance, and film, Aylon (1931–2020) envisioned her practice as a form of exploration, emphasizing discovery rather than completion. She aligned this experimental approach with her feminism, often collaborating with other women on projects that drew attention to the female body, environmental fragility, and gender inequities in religious texts and practices.
This exhibition encapsulates Aylon’s efforts to demonstrate that openness to the contingencies of the body, the earth, and spirituality can facilitate understanding, and even healing.
Guest curated by Rachel Federman.

Under a Southern Star: Identity and Environment in Australian Photography
NOW OPEN
As one of the most multicultural countries in the world, Australia has inspired many artists to reexamine and navigate the country’s troubled colonial history in the context of questions about identity, belonging, and the continent’s increasingly fragile ecosystems.
Under a Southern Star: Identity and Environment in Australian Photography showcases the work of twelve contemporary Australian artists together with earlier, iconic photographs related to Australia’s history. Comprising works employing a wide array of visually arresting photographic techniques— including Lumachrome glass printing and AI animation—the exhibition traces photography’s evolution as it explores themes such as migration, settler colonialism, landscape, environmental degradation, and portraiture.
Curated by Deborah Klochko, Graham Howe, and Ashley Lumb.
