974 Madison Avenue

974 Madison Avenue opens Friends and Legends: The Collection of Michael Chow on November 14, the last day of Art Week. The show draws on the portraits of Michael Chow, the legendary restaurateur, that he commissioned from artists including Jean-Michel Basquiat, Peter Blake, Urs Fischer, Keith Haring, David Hockney, Ed Ruscha, Julian Schnabel, and Andy Warhol, many of which have hung in his Mr. Chow restaurants over the years. It runs through December 22.

595 Madison Avenue, 6th floor

“Prince Hussain Aga Khan: Animal Voyage” captures flora and fauna, a long-running fascination for the artist. Marine ecosystems are the main focus of his photography, documenting intimate moments in regions often unseen and undiscovered. Alongside Khan’s artistic practice, he also founded the nonprofit Focused On Nature to advocate for the protection of biodiverse environments. The show runs October 28 through December 5. Open Monday to Friday, 10am to 6pm, and Saturday, 10am to 4pm.

Fuller Building, 41 East 57th Street, 9th floor

Tula Telfair’s “Who Owns This Land,” her first solo with the gallery, runs October 14 through November 20. More than a dozen new paintings leave out the human figure, since in nature’s presence, she believes, we grasp our own mortality and insignificance. Unpopulated cobalt-blue landscapes are set against scenes of untamed wilderness. For the artist, land use is never a simple discussion, and its mere depiction can elicit a conflicted response.

47 East 64th Street

Alejandro Corujeira’s “La sonora luz de lo invisible [The Sounding Light of the Unseen],” his second show at the gallery, features eleven new works and runs September 23 through January 30, 2027. The paintings ask what happens when light sits at the edge of an object. A catalogue text by Josefina Barcia, curator of the Argentine Pavilion at this year’s Venice Biennale, is available in English and Spanish. On November 14 from 11am to 2pm, Barcia gives walkthroughs in both languages, with churros . Open Wednesday to Saturday, 11am to 5pm.

19 East 64th Street

Two shows run through December 19. “BACON / DE KOONING,” opening November 5, is billed as the first time the two painters are shown in direct dialogue, focusing on 1960s and ’70s canvases, when both painters were at the height of their powers––some of the works have never been seen by the public before. Jutta Koether’s “tRaVeLiNgliGHt” opens November 4. Koether paints, performs, and writes, and the paintings show here each rework elements from modernist master Alberto Giacometti’s Still Life with an Apple (1937).

595 Madison Avenue

In 1976, Wilke declared her concern with “the creation of a formal imagery that is specifically female.” While evoking the boys’ club of twentieth-century Surrealism, Wilke rejected the fetishistic playground of their making, instead proposing an alternative that rooted itself in the physical and often uncomfortable reality of womanhood. “I Object: Hannah Wilke and Her Surrealist Counterparts” points out where her approach diverged from those of male Surrealists such as Max Ernst, Jean Arp, Yves Tanguy, and Marcel Duchamp.

The secondary-market gallery formed from Pace, Di Donna Galleries, and David Schrader, focused on 19th and 20th century Masters. It is headquartered on the Upper East Side, open Monday to Friday, 10am to 6pm.

19 East 66th Street

Dia Al-Azzawi’s “Tell us a tale to break the waking night” opens November 5 and runs through December 18. The British-Iraqi artist, born in Baghdad in 1939, had a historical survey at the gallery’s London space this spring. Open Monday to Friday, 11am to 6pm.

22 East 80th Street, 5th floor

James Ensor (1860–1949, b. Ostend, Belgium) and Calvin Marcus (b. 1988, San Francisco) are paired in an exhibition running from November 4 through January 23, 2027. Although they’re separated by a century, the show asks how the two artists’ mutually uncanny approaches find resonance within each other. Open Tuesday to Saturday, 10am to 6pm.

19 East 66th Street

“Esphyr Slobodkina: An Unbound Creativity” runs October 7 through November 14, following the gallery’s recent presentation of her work at Independent 20th Century. Slobodkina was a Russian-born illustrator and a pioneer of early American abstraction, a forerunner of hard-edge painting, and a founding member of the American Abstract Artists group in 1936. She also wrote and illustrated the widely loved children’s book Caps for Sale in 1940. Open Monday to Friday, 10am to 6pm.

22 East 80th Street, 2nd floor

Thea Djordjadze’s “A well of night” is her first solo exhibition at the gallery’s New York space. Known for sculptural environments reworked for each room they’re presented in, the artist shows painted reliefs made from plaster-filled wooden frames, and steel vitrines encasing a set of prints. From the press release: “Painting, in these works, becomes a site of negotiation between artist, medium and space.” Open Tuesday to Saturday, 10am to 6pm, and by appointment.

23 East 73rd Street, 2nd floor

Zoe Longfield’s “A World of One’s Own” closes November 14. It shows rarely seen paintings and works on paper from 1948 to 1950, made after she studied under Richard Diebenkorn, David Park, and Clyfford Still. The muted, abstract works lean closer to Surrealism than to her teachers’ Bay Area landscapes. It is the gallery’s second solo presentation with her estate. The gallery will participate in the ADAA Upper East Side Gallery Walk on November 14. Open Monday to Friday, 10am to 6pm.

4 East 77th Street

Per Kirkeby’s “Shadows to the Feast” opens November 11, with a reception from 6 to 8pm, and runs through January 30, 2027. It brings together major late-career paintings by the Danish artist (1938–2018) alongside a selection of bronze sculptures. The exhibition title comes from the artist’s 1981 essay “The Continued Text,” in which he reflects on Anselm Feuerbach’s painting of Plato’s Symposium and imagines the banquet lit by flickering oil lamps. The interplay of light and shadow became an increasingly important concern for Kirkeby in the early 1980s and shaped his painting for the rest of his career. Open Tuesday to Saturday, 10am to 6pm.

1002 Madison Avenue

Doris Salcedo’s first major New York show since her US 2015 Guggenheim retrospective opens November 13 and runs through January 16, 2027. It features two new bodies of work: the centerpiece, House (2023–26), is a delicate structure made of human hair, and Grains of Sorrow is a group of 47 small vessels of rice and hair. Gallery staff lead a walkthrough on November 14 from 11am to noon, currently waitlist only . Open Tuesday to Saturday, 10am to 6pm.
