DESCRIPTION:May 21 - Aug 1\, 2026\nFrancis Picabia worked in state of conti
 nuous creative renewal. The artistic chameleon cut a swath through differe
 nt movements—Impressionism\, Fauvism\, Cubism—each giving way to new e
 xploration. Marcel Duchamp\, Picabia’s close friend and collaborator\, d
 escribed his oeuvre as “a kaleidoscopic series of art experiences.” In
  1915\, Picabia flew to New York to partake in anti-art Dadaist manifestat
 ions alongside Duchamp and Man Ray. Five years later\, he decried the move
 ment for not being “new\,” left the avant-garde\, and returned to figu
 rative painting. In Paris\, Picabia painted photo-based portraits and nude
 s\, embracing what his former peers denounced. Over the course of five dec
 ades\, his practice transcended barriers between abstraction and realism. 
 Hauser & Wirth\, in London\, pays homage to Picabia’s relentless reinven
 tion\, highlighting stylistic shifts that began with his Impressionist lan
 dscapes and ended with textural abstract paintings.
