The 5th Duke of Portland // Tunnel Vision | New York
May 14, 2022–Dec 31, 2024 (UTC-5)ENDED
New York
An exhibition that reveals the mysterious world of the 5th Duke of Portland.
The 5th Duke was an unusual figure in Victorian high society, and many myths and legends have grown around his memory.
These include always wearing 3 pairs of socks, only eating roast chicken, and communicating exclusively by letter through his bedroom door.
The actual truth behind the stories is uncertain but it seems that the famously private 5th Duke was not a conventional Victorian aristocrat. He is best known for his building projects, which include one of the world’s largest riding schools, 2¾ miles of tunnels, a subterranean ballroom and an underground donkey stable.
The 5th Duke of Portland was a keen art collector, and The Portland Collection remains home to many pieces that he chose. He bought more than 50 paintings, including works by Reynolds and Mytens, over 70 miniatures and an extraordinary array of ceramics.
This exhibition includes the architectural models for some of the Duke’s building projects, portraits of his lost love – the opera singer Adelaide Kemble, the Duke’s death mask, and his iconic double-letterbox bedroom door.
Ver/sammeln antirassistischer Kämpfe - Ein offenes Archiv | New York
May 22, 2022–May 20, 2024 (UTC-5)ENDED
New York
Kämpfe und Widerstände gegen Rassismus sind Bestandteil der Geschichte dieses Landes. Ob eingewandert, durchreisend oder hier geboren - Menschen mit Rassismus-, Antisemitismus- und Diskriminierungserfahrungen kämpfen seit Jahrzehnten für Gleichberechtigung und gesellschaftliche Veränderung. Ihre Forderungen für Teilhabe und Projekte gegen Rassismus und Unterdrückung haben die Gesellschaft wesentlich mitgeprägt. Ihre Geschichten und Perspektiven bleiben jedoch meist unsichtbar und unerzählt. Ihr Wissen, ihre Erfahrungen und ihre Stimmen werden instrumentalisiert oder fehlen in der Erinnerungskultur und in offiziellen Archiven.
Zusammen mit vielen Menschen aus Ost-, West- und dem wiedervereinigten Deutschland arbeiten wir seit einiger Zeit daran, die Geschichten der Kämpfe gegen Rassismus und Antisemitismus zu erzählen. Gemeinsam suchen wir nach neuen Wegen des Sammelns, Aufarbeitens und Darstellens.
Im FHXB Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg Museum ist ein offenes Archiv mit ersten Ergebnissen dieses gemeinsamen Forschens entstanden. Es handelt sich um eine Sammlung an Bruch- und Fundstücken, die bei Workshops und durch Unterstützung der Besucher:innen weiter wachsen wird. Das offene Archiv soll zu einem Debattenraum werden, der vergangene Erfahrungen mit heutigen Debatten und Kämpfen gegen Antisemitismus, Rassismus und allen Diskriminierungen zusammenbringt.
Ein Kooperationsprojekt der Georg-August-Universität Göttingen, der Fachhochschule Kiel, des Dokumentationszentrums und Museums über die Migration in Deutschland e.V. (DOMiD) und des FHXB Friedrichshain-Kreuzberg Museums.

Grounded in Clay: The Spirit of Pueblo Pottery. | New York
Jul 14, 2023–Jun 24, 2024 (UTC-5)ENDED
New York
Pueblo Indian pottery embodies four main natural elements: earth, water, air, and fire. It is an art form literally of land and place, and is one of America’s ancient Indigenous creative expressions.
Foregrounding Pueblo voices and aesthetics, Grounded in Clay: The Spirit of Pueblo Pottery is the first community-curated Native American exhibition in the history of The Met. The effort features more than one hundred historical, modern, and contemporary clay works and offers a critical understanding of Pueblo pottery as community-based knowledge and personal experience.
Dating from the eleventh century to the present day, the featured artworks represent the aesthetic lineages of New Mexico’s nineteen Río Grande Pueblos as well as the West Texas community of Ysleta del Sur and the Hopi tribe of Arizona—sovereign Indigenous nations where pots and other ceramic works have been made and used for millennia. Visual and material languages of pottery and intergenerational narratives are highlighted throughout the exhibition.
Grounded in Clay: The Spirit of Pueblo Pottery was curated by the Pueblo Pottery Collective, a group that includes sixty individual members of diverse ages, backgrounds, and professions, who represent twenty-one source communities. Selected works are from two significant Pueblo pottery collections—the Indian Arts Research Center of the School for Advanced Research (SAR) in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and the Vilcek Foundation, New York, New York.
Life Cycles: The Materials of Contemporary Design | New York
Sep 2, 2023–Jul 7, 2024 (UTC-5)ENDED
New York
Any act of good design must also be an act of empathy, respect, and responsibility toward all living organisms and ecosystems––as well as future generations. By translating scientific, technological, and social revolutions into objects and behaviors, design can be an agent of positive change and play a crucial part in restoring the fragile ties between humans and the rest of nature. Life Cycles: The Materials of Contemporary Design explores the regenerative power of design as it shifts its focus towards a more collaborative rapport with the natural world.
The objects in this exhibition highlight the entire life cycle of the materials they are made of. From extraction to reuse or disposal, designers are exploring new ways––sometimes drawn from old traditions––to enlist materials in their efforts to bring ecosystems into balance. Cow manure collected from the streets of Indonesia is transformed into casings for loudspeakers and lamps. Bricks made from crop waste and fungi mycelium are used as a carbon-neutral building material. Bees fabricate honeycomb vases over human-made forms. These objects demonstrate that design can be elegant, innovative, and compelling, while at the same time offering new strategies for repairing our planet.
The Facade Commission: Nairy Baghramian, Scratching the Back | New York
Sep 7, 2023–May 21, 2024 (UTC-5)ENDED
New York
For The Met Fifth Avenue’s facade niches, Nairy Baghramian will create four abstract polychrome sculptures with components that seem to have washed up like flotsam and jetsam in the voids of their respective niches. The project is the artist’s first public installation in New York City and is the fourth in the series of contemporary commissions for The Met’s facade.
Born in Iran in 1971, Nairy Baghramian fled to Berlin, Germany, in 1984, where she continues to live and work. Baghramian creates abstract sculptures that explore the dynamics of the body, gender, and dichotomies of private and public space. Her site-responsive sculptures and installations engage with architecture and often evoke bodily gestures, junctures, or fragments. Along with site responsivity, other hallmarks of Baghramian’s work are polychromy and the innovative and subversive use of different types of material.
The exhibition is made possible by Angela A. Chao and Jim Breyer, Robert Denning, Cynthia Hazen Polsky and Leon B. Polsky, and The Hayden Family Foundation.
Fred Eversley: Parabolic Light | New York
Sep 7, 2023–Aug 25, 2024 (UTC-5)ENDED
New York
The exhibition reflects Public Art Fund's ongoing commitment to creating public exhibition opportunities for advanced career artists and artists of color, particularly those who may not have received widespread recognition earlier in their careers. Eversley’s presentation represents not only his first public sculpture in New York, but also the first outdoor placement of the artist’s large-scale polyurethane resin works.
“Fred Eversley’s art immerses us in perceptual experiences that bring us outside of ourselves. He explores how an artwork may inhabit the world around it while simultaneously inviting us into the realms of imagination and mystery,” said Public Art Fund Artistic & Executive Director Nicholas Baume. “, Eversley’s first public work in his home city, takes his series of pristine cylindrical sculptures to a new scale and context, engaging with the ever-changing outdoor environment, the effects of natural light, and the countless visitors whose attention it captures.”
New York-based artist Fred Eversley is a pioneer of the West Coast Light and Space and Finish Fetish movements. With his scientific background as an electrical and aerospace engineer informing his artistic practice for over fifty years, Eversley is renowned for his vivid cast resin works that invite audience-artwork interaction through a range of sensory phenomena. Dedicated to expressing ideas about energy as a physical and metaphysical concern for all of humanity, Eversley’s sculptures center on the parabola, the only shape that concentrates all forms of energy—light, sound, and heat—into a single acoustic and optical focal point.
“My parabolic forms are all about energy. They are made to reflect all the infinite combinations of internal reflections, refractions, color changes, and other optical phenomena that one can experience within a single sculpture,” said artist Fred Eversley. “ and its display in Doris C. Freedman Plaza resonates with my vision of an energetic outdoor focal point to attract public audiences to spontaneously pause, slow down, and engage in numerous ways with a cosmic, mystifying object.”
Eversley’s presentation with Public Art Fund marks an ambitious continuation of his new works, the artist’s first series of larger-than-human-scale, free-standing, floor-based sculptures. These recent works—which debuted at David Kordansky Gallery in May 2023—are conceptually linked to the cylindrical section sculptures the artist first exhibited in his first solo presentation at the Whitney Museum of American Art in 1970. The largest work of the series thus far, , is shaped as a plano-convex lens that focuses light into a single line. It acts as an optical instrument where stillness and motion appear to be present at the same time. Its geometrical mass gradually transitions its magenta hue, from rich saturation at its bottom to colorless transparency at the apex. The color saturation further shifts depending on the angle of the viewer and the direction of the sun. The sculpture obtains its luminous tone and reflective quality from its crystal-clear resin material and through a labor-intensive hand-polishing process. appears simultaneously reflective and transparent, liquid and solid—a manmade form with an otherworldly, ethereal quality.
prompts questions about how optical and physical perceptions determine how we connect with each other and the world, communicating a kinetic, palpable sense of the mysterious presence of energy throughout the universe. The sculpture’s properties, and direct placement on the ground, entice viewers to approach and move around the work. Bending, distorting, and reflecting faces, forms, and colors, the work heightens the relationship between the viewer’s body and the cylindrical lens. This key performative facet is on full display in this outdoor work. Interacting with natural light and spontaneous passers-by, it represents Eversley’s most far-reaching and dynamic foray into the cultivation of audience-artwork interaction to date. The work's outdoor site allows for natural light to hit its surface and further generate a range of refractions and prismatic effects, connecting the viewer’s senses with the object and the environment in spellbinding ways. In this way, the sculpture expands and destabilizes multiple states of existence and perception. Straddling the scientific, metaphysical, and mystical, the sculpture functions as a portal for viewers to a world of radiant color, abstracted form, and a re-examination of one’s self and others within our surroundings.
is curated by Public Art Fund Artistic & Executive Director Nicholas Baume with support from Public Art Fund Assistant Curator Jenée-Daria Strand, and developed by former Public Art Fund Senior Curator Allison Glenn.
ABOUT THE ARTIST
Fred Eversley (b. 1941, Brooklyn, New York) is a key figure in the development of contemporary art from Los Angeles during the postwar period. He synthesizes elements from several art historical movements associated with Southern California, including Light and Space, though his work is the product of a pioneering vision all his own, informed by lifelong studies on the timeless principles of light, space, time, and gravity. Prior to becoming an artist, Eversley moved to California to become an engineer, collaborating with NASA and major aerospace companies to develop high-energy acoustic and vibration testing laboratories. Eversley’s work on NASA’s second and third human spaceflight programs, Gemini and Apollo, developed his interest in the parabola, which began when he was a teen. His pioneering use of plastic, polyester resin, and industrial dyes and pigments reflects the technological advances that define the postwar period even as his work reveals the timeless inner workings of the human eye and mind.
Eversley will unveil his largest Public Commission to date, a sculptural installation, titled “Portals”, for permanent display in Able’s Park, at One Flagler, West Palm Beach in early summer of 2024, commissioned by Related Companies in partnership with the City of West Palm Beach. He has also been the subject of solo exhibitions at the Orange County Museum of Art, Costa Mesa, California (2022–2023); Rose Art Museum, Brandeis University, Waltham, Massachusetts (2017); Art + Practice, Los Angeles (2016); National Academy of Science, Washington, D.C. (1981); Palm Springs Art Museum, California (1977); Newport Harbor Art Museum, Newport Beach, California (1976); and Whitney Museum of American Art, New York (1970). Eversley will be part of two major group shows as part of the Pacific Standard Time Art and Science Collide program 2024. Recent group exhibitions include Light and Space, Copenhagen Contemporary, Copenhagen (2021–2022); Soul of a Nation: Art in the Age of Black Power 1963–1983 (2017–2020, traveled to five venues); Space Shifters, Hayward Gallery, London (2018); Dynamo – A Century of Light and Motion in Art, Grand Palais, Paris (2013); Pacific Standard Time: Art in L.A. 1945–1980 (Getty Foundation, 2011; traveled to Gropius Bau, Berlin, 2012). His work is in the permanent collections of more than three dozen museums throughout the world, including Tate Modern, London; Guggenheim Museum, New York; Museum of Fine Arts, Houston; Whitney Museum of American Art, New York; Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Bentonville, Arkansas; Museum of Modern Art, New York; K11 Art Foundation, Hong Kong; and Los Angeles County Museum of Art. The first monograph dedicated to Eversley’s work was published by David Kordansky Gallery in 2022. Eversley lives and works in New York City.

During the early 1900s, the Lower East Side of Manhattan was densely populated, with over 300,000 residents per square mile, primarily comprised of immigrants from Southern and Eastern Europe. In response to the urgent needs of these newcomers, settlement houses were established across the city, with University Settlement leading the way as the first in the United States in 1886.
However, the story of Christodora House, located across from Tompkins Square Park, remains lesser-known. Originally known as the Young Women’s Settlement, it served as a vital resource for thousands of New Yorkers, offering classes, clubs, recreational activities, and essential medical and dental clinics. More than just a historical account, "Skyscraper Settlement" sheds light on a pioneering movement shaped by women, which continues to hold a hopeful message for our present-day society.
