A new chapter for Brendan Murphy 🚀🧸

Following years of monumental public installations centered around his iconic Spaceman series, unveils his first large scale public Love Matter Bear installation at Hudson Yards, positioned directly in front of Vessel.

Expanding his ongoing exploration of emotion, connection, and human experience, the Love Matter Bear introduces a softer yet equally powerful visual language into Murphy’s public work. Through layered symbols and messages tied to connection, imagination, ambition, and vulnerability, the sculpture transforms into both a landmark and a shared emotional encounter within the city.

Installed in one of New York’s most recognized contemporary public spaces, the work marks an important evolution within Murphy’s practice and the continued expansion of his presence in the global public art landscape.

Close Study: AndrĂŠ Poli

Brazilian artist AndrĂŠ Poli () works across painting, sculpture, photography, and industrial design, developing a multidisciplinary practice that moves between the figurative and the abstract.

His work explores perception, atmosphere, and the relationship between material, light, and space. Through experimentation and layered processes, Poli constructs surfaces that dissolve contours and create immersive visual environments shaped by depth, reflection, and movement.

Poli’s sculptural work continues this investigation through polished black resin surfaces that interact directly with light and perception. Smooth reflective planes contrast with textured areas, producing shifting visual experiences that change depending on the viewer’s position and the surrounding environment.

Across disciplines, Poli’s work reflects an ongoing exploration of how we emotionally and physically relate to the world around us, creating objects and images that exist between material presence and sensory experience.

Close Study: Wolfgang Stiller

Wolfgang () explores the relationship between material, process, and transformation through sculpture and installation.

His work is best known for the Matchstickmen series, where enlarged matchstick forms evolve into human heads, merging the everyday with the figurative. These works originate from a process driven by experimentation, where materials themselves often guide the outcome.

Stiller’s practice is rooted in a sensitivity to material behavior. Using wood, bronze, and found elements, he allows imperfections, burn marks, and surface variations to remain visible, emphasizing the physical history of each piece.

Trained in scenography and influenced by his time in theater, his installations often carry a sense of staging and repetition, creating environments that feel both familiar and unsettling.

Through scale, material, and form, Stiller’s work reflects on transformation, individuality, and the tension between the natural and the constructed.

Close Study: Rogelio Manzo

Rogelio () approaches portraiture as a way to move beyond appearance and into the psychological and emotional structure of the human condition.

His work explores the fragility of life, using the body not as a surface, but as a record of lived experience. Through layered techniques and unconventional materials, Manzo reveals figures that feel both exposed and resilient, shaped by memory, time, and transformation.

Drawing from his background in architecture, his compositions are carefully constructed yet instinctive, balancing control with spontaneity. Faces and bodies often appear fragmented, forcing a direct confrontation with the subject and stripping away any sense of distance.

Working across painting, sculpture, and installation, Manzo continues to expand his practice, integrating materials such as resin, metal, and fabric to create works that are both physical and conceptual.
His work has been exhibited internationally and is included in major public and private collections, reflecting a practice that remains deeply rooted in questioning the nature of identity, mortality, and our connection to the human experience.

Artist Spotlight: Dominic Besner

Dominic Besner () studied architecture at the University of Montreal, a foundation that continues to inform his approach to structure, composition, and spatial relationships.

Working with a mixed technique on canvas, including oil sticks, acrylic, and aerosol, Besner builds layered surfaces through both material and gesture, often manipulating the paint directly by hand.

Drawing from the intensity of the urban environment, his compositions reflect movement, density, and the psychological rhythm of the city. The worlds he constructs on canvas speak to human fragility and the brevity of life, where figures appear shaped by motion and instability, carrying the same sense of acceleration found within the urban landscape.

Whether human, animal, or architectural, each subject emerges through a dynamic relationship between form and space, defined by a constant tension between structure and movement.

Through line, color, and material, Besner creates immersive visual fields that extend beyond the two dimensional surface, forming complete worlds within the canvas.

New in.

This entirely handmade tiger by Mozart Guerra () is created without any use of 3D techniques. Guerra builds each piece from direct observation, studying real animals to achieve a true 1:1 presence. The process begins with drawing, moves through clay modeling and molding, and evolves into layered forms finished with meticulously pinned rope.

What appears instinctive is, in fact, deeply constructed.

There is an obsession that runs through Dee Lazzerini’s (.lazzerini) work: the anatomy of a pin.

A pin is composed of three volumes: a sphere (head), a cylinder (body), and a cone (tip). Three-dimensional forms condensed into one precise object.

When light hits the pin and you observe its shadow, transformation occurs. The sphere becomes a circle, the cylinder a rectangle, and the cone a triangle. Three volumes unfold into three flat geometries.

Together, they form six fundamental shapes. Precisely the forms he uses across the surface of his works.

This is the dissection of a pin.

Beyond its formal structure, there is an inherent tension within the pin itself. It perforates and protects at once. It embodies fragility and aggression in the same gesture.

At its most essential, the pin returns us to origin.
A pin is a point.
Extended, it becomes a line.

And point and line are the beginning of all art.

“Yema” by Rogelio Manzo ()

Rogelio Manzo’s work explores identity through absence rather than exposure. By stripping away direct facial features, he invites the viewer to engage with emotion, memory, and inner presence instead of physical likeness. Layers of material and muted tones create a sense of quiet tension, suggesting that who we are is shaped as much by what is concealed as by what is seen.
