Mire Lee
September 10–October 25, 2025

Los Angeles

The work of Mire Lee fuses volatile substances with traditional sculptural materials and industrial remnants to produce haunting objects and installations. Equally beautiful and grotesque, her sinuous compositions twist into positions that evoke bodies, entrails and skeletal forms and touch upon notions of psychological tension and trauma. Following upon Lee’s major installation at Tate’s Turbine Hall last year, Monika Sprüth and Philomene Magers are pleased to present the artist’s first solo exhibition in Los Angeles.

Kaari Upson
House to Body Shift
September 17–November 1, 2025
Public Reception: September 16, 6–8pm

London

Throughout the work of Kaari Upson, the home and the body are persistent themes, from her earliest installations and sculptures from “The Larry Project” to her later series drawn from the contents of her childhood home. House to Body Shift explores how the late artist delved into the rich connections between our selves and our domestic surroundings, both physically and psychologically and across familial generations. As with artists such as Louise Bourgeois, Robert Gober and Paul McCarthy before her, the home in Upson’s practice becomes a surreal site of trauma, memory and intrigue.

About the artist

Seriously.
Curated by Nana Bahlmann
November 21, 2025–January 31, 2026
Public Reception: November 20, 6–8pm

London

Monika Sprüth and Philomene Magers are pleased to present Seriously., a group exhibition curated by Nana Bahlmann, featuring over a hundred conceptual photographs, print media, and select films ranging from the 1960s to the present, which expose the absurdities of our world and its representations. Through visual wit, subversiveness, and even outright slapstick, these photographic experiments offer humorous conceptual investigations of how images are constructed and interpreted. Employing a range of strategies, from masquerade and role-play to the construction of inexplicable scenarios, unexpected juxtapositions, and idiosyncratic sculptural compositions, these works reveal the farcical and fantastical within the visual realm. In reframing our visual world through satire and playful mimicry, they create space for both reflection and amusement.

Seriously. features the work of, among others, Keith Arnatt, John Baldessari, Bernd and Hilla Becher, Lynda Benglis, Helen Chadwick, Robert Cumming, Thomas Demand, Philip-Lorca diCorcia, Braco Dimitrijević, Peter Fischli and David Weiss, Tom Friedman, Dan Graham, Rodney Graham, Scott Grieger, Aneta Grzeszykowska, Sigurður Guðmundsson, Andreas Gursky, Barbara Hammer, Rebecca Horn, Douglas Huebler, Astrid Klein, David Lamelas, Louise Lawler, Tom Marioni, Anthony McCall, Jonathan Monk, Peter Moore, Bruce Nauman, Dennis Oppenheim, Charles Ray, Andrea Robbins and Max Becher, Thomas Ruff, Ed Ruscha, Cindy Sherman, Stephen Shore, Santiago Sierra and Franz Erhard Walther, Roman Signer, Laurie Simmons, Robert Therrien, Rosemarie Trockel, Keiji Uematsu, Ger van Elk, John Waters, William Wegman, and Hannah Wilke.
