SOLAR TACUBAYA opens its doors for the third time to present “breve,” a group exhibition that unfolds along two main themes: contemporary sculpture and the concept of brevity, exploring sculptural practice through gesture, lightness, fragility, and everyday life.

We hope that “breve” will serve as an opportunity to come together around different ways of understanding and practicing contemporary sculpture, broadening the conversation about its boundaries, its materialities, its presence in space, and its relationship to time.

Marshall Gallery presents our sharp line of sight, Fabiola Menchelli’s third solo exhibition with the gallery, on view September 11 through November 7, 2026. The exhibition brings together two dozen unique prismatic, camera-less chromogenic works. Installed in a darkened space, each photo-sculptural piece is suspended within a custom color-matched shadowbox frame, where folds, gradients, and planes register as both luminous images and physical forms.

Menchelli works in the darkroom without a camera, directly with photosensitive color paper and light. She folds, handles, exposes, and develops the paper in total darkness, where the image remains unseen: it emerges through touch, duration, chemistry, and the paper’s own resistance. “The work responds to darkness, not to my wishes,” the artist says. “It requires time, space, and a willingness to remain uncertain.” In the series Queer Horizons, the folded paper yields unstable horizons that undo the fixed vantage point traditionally promised by landscape and photography alike.

The exhibition asks viewers to slow down as their eyes adjust to its chromatic array. Rather than resolving vision into a single, sharp line of sight, it opens a wider field. Works from Queer Horizons recently entered the collection of the J. Paul Getty Museum, and the exhibition coincides with the Getty’s fall presentation Instante/revelación: Moments in Mexican Photography, curated by Julieta Pestarino.

Artist Talk – Photographic Arts Council Los Angeles

In conversation with Hannah Sloan

The Photographic Arts Council Los Angeles hosted Fabiola Menchelli for an online conversation with curator and advisor Hannah Sloan. The talk moves through recent and earlier bodies of work, among them our sharp line of sight, her solo exhibition at Marshall Gallery, and turns on the material processes and the questions about light and perception that hold her photographic practice together.

The recording is now available. Watch the full conversation

Deeply grateful to announce the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles has acquired two works from the Queer Horizon series for their permanent collection.

Thank you to Douglas Marshall and everyone at Marshall Gallery for believing in the work. Immensly grateful to the Getty, especially Jim Ganz, Arpie Kovacs, and Julieta Pestarino, for making this possible.

The meaning of a collection is not fixed; it changes every time an exhibition project is mounted and someone visits it. This premise serves as the starting point for *Clusters and Variations: Readings of the MACG Collection*, an interpretive exercise of the Carrillo Gil Art Museum’s collection that proposes an experimental installation to explore concepts linked to both art history and contemporary concerns. Reclaiming this museum’s mission as a space that safeguards a foundational collection of modern art while also hosting contemporary artistic expressions, the exhibition is organized around groupings of works—clusters—centered on four thematic nuclei that build bridges and foster cross-disciplinary interpretations between works of different periods and natures.

The exhibition is organized into four thematic axes, each containing brief texts that seek—rather than to define the meaning of the works—to explore possible avenues for understanding them. “Technologies of Language” explores visual scripts and various media for storing visible and legible texts, as well as the sonic dimension of works that do not necessarily produce sound. “Avant-Gardes” examines the relevance of this concept through metaphysical inquiries, constructive systems, and representations of movement. “Anthropocene” explores humanity’s impact on the planet through landscape, representations of the human figure, and the allegorical use of the animal and plant worlds.

A group exhibition bringing together 28 contemporary artists and presenting exclusively images created in the darkroom. Viewing analog photography not only as a reproductive technique but as a living, fluid, and deeply material practice, the exhibition brings together prints and photograms that highlight the alchemy of light and time, and emphasizes photography as an object shaped by chemistry, touch, chance, and duration.
