Victoria Miro is delighted to participate in Art Basel Miami Beach with new, recent and historical works by María Berrío, Secundino Hernández, Kudzanai-Violet Hwami, Isaac Julien, Idris Khan, Yayoi Kusama, Doron Langberg, Alice Neel, Maria Nepomuceno, Chris Ofili, Celia Paul, Conrad Shawcross, Do Ho Suh, Sarah Sze, Adriana Varejão and Flora Yukhnovich.

A focal point is Where the Lights in My Heart Go by Yayoi Kusama, the first Infinity Mirror Room by Kusama to rely solely on ambient light to create an experience of entering an expansive cosmos.

Themes of mirroring, reflection and repetition are further explored across the presentation: in new and recent works by Isaac Julien, Idris Khan, Maria Nepomuceno, Conrad Shawcross and Do Ho Suh, among others; and in the broader practices of artists who alight upon significant motifs over time – such as a grouping of seascapes by Celia Paul.

Further highlights include new paintings by Adriana Varejão and Flora Yukhnovich.

Among historical works on view are Alice Neel's Richard, a compelling painting of the artist's elder son, completed in 1980, and a significant painting by Chris Ofili, completed in 1995

    The bright white light that falls from above directly on to his face and chest, the Mediterranean blue polo shirt and the stripey seat back, are all evocative of the positive mood that pervades Neel’s magnificent image of Richard… all around his form she paints a bright blue outline, like an electric blue current, containing him, protecting him, emphasising his presence in the world.’

    – Dr Minna Moore Ede, quoted from the publication Alice Neel: There's Still Another I See, 2022

    ‘Following Ofili’s visit to Africa [in 1992], he produced his first paintings which incorporated the dung balls. They were principally experiments in something between a destruction of and a distraction from an increasingly polite and dangerously unfashionable decorative painting style…’

    – Godfrey Worsdale, quoted from the catalogue for the exhibition Chris Ofili, organised by Southampton City Art Gallery and Serpentine Gallery, London, 1998

    ‘The idea of seeing something that you immediately recognise, but then you lose your footing continually – that’s what I want to play with.’

    María Berrío, Clouded Infinity, 2020

    Clouded Infinity began with the idea of life cycles… This work is very much about the flowering of hope amidst sadness and grief.’

    ‘My fiction does not belong to any time or place, instead it is characterised by themes dealing with rupture and discontinuity.’

  • ‘I think of the entirety of an artist’s body of work as one work. Each individual artwork is a window into a chain of ongoing decisions. It’s the space in between those works that is fertile and feeds the evolution of the work.’

  • ‘Looking at Celia’s images of water – which is to say time shifting – is to recall Walter Sickert’s writing on the subject of nature, that at its best: “fragments of nature at her strangest and loveliest, seen and seduced with the eye of a poet, and executed with the brush of a master, is what we respond to”.’

    – Hilton Als, quoted from the monograph Celia Paul: Works 1975–2025, published by MACK, 2025

    ‘This work is built through repetition, not just of form but of thought, where meaning is gently worn away and something quieter, more essen­tial, begins to emerge.’

    These works at first appear almost like a scientific model, like an amino acid or a piece of DNA or a protein. Yet there is a sense of time to these works, of entropy, of growth, of expansion, of things moving forward.’

    ‘The excess of a painter’s palette yields a refined composition that feels at once restrained and wildly alive as gesture, line and colour unite in harmonious compositions.’
