Showcasing mathematically distorted sculptures, Robert Lazzarini's solo exhibition reimagines familiar symbols of American identity through a destabilizing formal language that challenges perception and certainty. The exhibition includes new works originally conceived for the United States Pavilion at the 2026 Venice Biennale. The objects collectively evoke histories of governance, nationalism, and representation, offering a timely reflection on the construction of national mythologies.

MAAM unveils a new lobby installation by Baseera Khan. Titled Where We Come From, the show features a large, fractured column wrapped in Kashmiri silk alongside six hand-worked prayer rugs that merge devotional imagery with the visual language of protest. Utilizing color, material, and form as their tools, Khan refuses the promise of fixed or monumental structures. Together, the works propose futurity as an ongoing process of revision, agency, and collective reimagining.
