Johnson Lowe Gallery Fall Exhibits (fridays)

From the venue:

Voyager

Todd Murphy
26 September - 29 November 2025

Johnson Lowe Gallery is pleased to present Voyager, its second solo exhibition of works by the late American artist Todd Murphy (1962–2022). On view from September 26 through November 29, 2025, this exhibition proposes an encounter between image and environment, memory and myth, object and invocation. The exhibition draws from Murphy’s deep engagement with the natural world as an animated force: stage, initiator, and oracle. It offers an experience of nature as sacred and unknowable—sublime, austere, and glistening with memory—where materials speak, and images function as maps of survival.

26 September - 29 November 2025

Johnson Lowe Gallery is pleased to announce the opening of its fall group exhibition, Encounters on view from September 26 to November 29. What does it mean to stand before an image in a society that conditions us to skim, swipe, react and move on? Encounters resists the lure of passive observation, gathering film, photography, sculpture, painting and installations that interrupt the flattened cycles of contemporary looking. These works demand presence. Here, the creative act generates an encounter in its fullest sense: something to be met, something to be reckoned with.
