Chronotope | November 12, 2026 - January 29, 2027

Modernism presents “Chronotope," a group exhibition featuring 22 works by 13 artists across painting, photography, sculpture, printmaking and décollage.

Meaning literally “time-space,” chronotope is a term introduced by literary theorist Mikhail Bakhtin [1895-1975] to describe the intrinsic connection between temporal and spatial relationships. The exhibition examines how artists preserve moments in time through images of places, objects and environments. Clocks, theaters, storefronts, streets and landscapes become markers of both physical location and temporal experience.

Artists: Peter Alexander | Markus Baenziger | Pierre Buraglio | Lauren DiCioccio | Michael Eastman | François Kollar | Tanja Rector | John Register | Louis Stettner | Hiroshi Sugimoto | Ilond Tansovskaya | Jacques Villeglé | Max Yavno
