This exhibition will present forty paintings and fifteen works on paper to trace Frankenthaler’s creative evolution over more than six decades. The largest presentation of her art in Europe to date and her first solo museum exhibition in Switzerland, it is also the first to shed light on her probing study of art history from the Italian Renaissance to modernism.

The Moment and the Distance

Gagosian Gallery

New York, NY
April 30 – July 2, 2026

Surveying four decades of paintings from 1960 to 1992, the exhibition features more than twenty of Frankenthaler’s largest, most ambitious works. Arranged by decade, the monumental scale, sensuous color, and innovative compositions of these canvases offer new perspectives on the artist’s continual reinvention of her practice.
