FUN ist ein Stahlbad
Fundação de Serralves, Porto
Through April 12, 2026

FUN ist ein Stahlbad, Anne Imhof’s first solo exhibition in Portugal, brings together a group of works—most of them newly produced and conceived specifically for the Serralves Museum. A large-scale sculpture installed in the Pátio do Ulmeiro anchors the exhibition and enters into a charged dialogue with Álvaro Siza’s architecture before unfolding inside the museum. Across this spatial sequence, sculptures, paintings, and moving-image works evoke states of abandonment, a fragile modernity, and the unsettled atmosphere of a world marked by environmental precarity and diffuse forms of angst. Moments of emptiness appear as thresholds: places where what remains unresolved comes briefly into view.

FOCUS
Group Exhibition with Oliver Bak, Anne Imhof, and Barbara Kruger
Krupa Art Foundation, Wrocław
Through May 3, 2026

FOCUS is an exhibition presenting selected works recently acquired for the collection of Sylwia and Piotr Krupa, the majority of which were created over the past few years. The exhibition concentrates on art that is acutely contemporary—produced here and now, in a world that is constantly accelerating, transforming, and repeatedly eluding clear-cut diagnoses. The contemporary art scene unfolds along multiple trajectories, and the richness of its themes and practices makes it impossible to identify a single, shared current.

Monika Sprüth and Philomene Magers are pleased to present Horror, an intergenerational group exhibition curated by Jill Mulleady. In conceiving the exhibition, Mulleady was inspired by the long history of horror in film and literature, as well as by Mike Kelley’s 1993 group exhibition and publication, The Uncanny, a curatorial statement which explored the complex interplay of recognition, memory, and repression. Over thirty years on, Horror takes Kelley’s project as a touchstone, moving beyond the psychological discomfort of the uncanny toward the explicit shock of horror.

With works by Dario Argento, Antonin Artaud, Oliver Bak, Bruce Conner, Mati Diop & Fatima Al Qadiri, Cyprien Gaillard, Jonathan Glazer, Anne Imhof, Arthur Jafa, Asger Jorn, Mike Kelley, Karen Kilimnik, Harmony Korine, Tetsumi Kudo, Mire Lee, Diego Marcon, Tyler Mitchell, Ottessa Moshfegh, Jill Mulleady, Precious Okoyomon, Sondra Perry, Carol Rama, Cindy Sherman, Pol Taburet, Henry Taylor, Paul Thek, Rosemarie Trockel, Andra Ursuta, Kara Walker and Jordan Wolfson.

Songs before Sunrise
Oliver Bak, Eugène Carrière, Guglielmo Castelli, Enzo Cucchi, Enrico David, Leonor Fini, Anne Imhof, Conny Maier, Rosemarie Trockel, Andro Wekua, Alexej von Jawlensky

London

In his poem “Vereinsamt” (1884), Friedrich Nietzsche portrays a bleak winter landscape that can be read as a symbol of existential loneliness and metaphysical longing. The crows caw, the snow looms ominously, and man, feeling uprooted, remains isolated within himself. It is this Symbolist atmosphere that characterises the exhibition Songs before Sunrise at Sprüth Magers’ London gallery. The artists gathered here explore the tension between inner imagination, historical awareness, and the inescapability of our personal perspective on the world. The exhibition brings together works by Oliver Bak, Eugène Carrière, Guglielmo Castelli, Enzo Cucchi, Enrico David, Leonor Fini, Anne Imhof, Alexej von Jawlensky, Conny Maier, Rosemarie Trockel and Andro Wekua. Their works interweave past and present in a dreamlike visual language in which the boundaries between reality and imagination are dissolved.

EMO
February 15–May 6, 2023
Los Angeles

Monika Sprüth and Philomene Magers are pleased to announce EMO, a solo exhibition by Anne Imhof, the largest presentation of the artist's work in the United States to date and her first in Los Angeles. Over the past decade, Imhof has developed a deeply moving and varied practice that encompasses sculpture, painting, drawing, installation, video and performance. EMO brings together several new bodies of work across multiple mediums, putting each in dialogue with industrial found objects in ways that implicate visitors' bodies as they move through the space, at turns exalting and frustrating the viewing experience.

Sprüth Magers is delighted to announce a solo exhibition of new works by Anne Imhof in London—the first show to span all four of the gallery's floors. Continuing and expanding upon the narrative arc of Imhof's recent exhibitions, the works range from oil paintings, large-scale paintings on aluminum panels, and drawings to film and sound works that interweave notions of reality and artifice, presence and absence, exposure and concealment. Fitness equipment and gym furniture are installed throughout the gallery, blurring the boundaries between functional object and art while creating a multilayered experience as visitors encounter and move through Imhof's abundant spaces.
