James Franco & Kalup Linzy, Dreams, Fame and the Savage, Installation view at The Breeder, Athens, 2025

The artistic collaboration between Kalup Linzy and James Franco began in 2009, sparking a body of work that blurs the lines between visual art, film and performance. From their joint appearance in the General Hospital series to live performances and musical collaborations, they have consistently pushed the boundaries of their practices.

The exhibition Dreams, Fame and the Savage reunites the two artists, merging Linzy’s sharp cultural critique with Franco’s intricate narrative approach, fostering a dynamic dialogue.

A new series of paintings completes ‘s exhibition MIRRORS. The paintings feature elongated gold leaf figures on a white background. While a similar process with the photographic works was applied to create the paintings, their materiality resembles an outer skin, a distorted layer of a posed body. Stillness here is prominent. The figures are descriptive and yet, their lack of breath is palpable.

I Maria Hassabi, In Gold, 2024, Gold leaf on wood, 135 x 90 cm
II Maria Hassabi, Falling, 2024, Gold leaf on wood, 135 x 90 cm
III Maria Hassabi, Man in Gold, 2024, Gold leaf on wood, 135 x 90 cm

At the heart of the exhibition is ‘s installation “Mirrors”, first presented at Unlimited in June 2024. Nine photographs merge in a large frame of golden acrylic mirrors, portraying distorted figures of the same color scheme. Hassabi used mirrors to capture the reflections of the dancers’ movements as a way to abstract the body further than a naked eye could possibly perceive it. This process was used as a commentary on the pervasive influence of media in shaping our perceptions. Placing the photographic works back onto their material of origin, the viewer can look at them and look back at themselves, initiating a loop of reflection.

BugSim (Pheromone Spa) will be part of Shifting Landscapes at the Whitney Museum of American Art, NY, opening November 1st.

Open: Nov 1, 2024–Jan 2026
Member Previews: Oct 30–31, 2024

Shifting Landscapes explores how evolving political, ecological, and social issues motivate artists’ representations of the world around them. While the art historical genre of landscape has long been associated with picturesque vistas and documentary accounts of place, the artworks gathered in this exhibition suggest a more expansive interpretation. The 120 works by more than eighty artists—including Firelei Báez, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Jane Dickson, Gordon Matta-Clark, Amalia Mesa-Bains, and Purvis Young—depict the effects of industrialization on the environment, grapple with the impact of geopolitical borders, and give shape to imagined spaces as a way of destabilizing the concept of a “natural” world. Drawn from the Whitney’s collection, this exhibition features works from the 1960s to the present, most of which are on view at the Museum for the first time. The exhibition is organized in thematic sections that reflect the many meanings embedded in the idea of landscape. Together, these works bring concepts of land and place into focus, foregrounding how we shape and are shaped by the spaces around us.

Shifting Landscapes is organized by Jennie Goldstein, Jennifer Rubio Associate Curator of the Collection; Marcela Guerrero, DeMartini Family Curator; Roxanne Smith, Senior Curatorial Assistant; with Angelica Arbelaez, Rubio Butterfield Family Fellow; with thanks to Araceli Bremauntz-Enriquez and J. English Cook for research support.
