“Opening next Friday, June 5, 6–8pm
Manuel Álvarez Bravo (1902–2002)
June 5 – July 24, 2026
New York Life Gallery is pleased to present Manuel Álvarez Bravo (1902–2002), curated by Johann Mergenthaler (@johannme) in collaboration with the Estate of Manuel Álvarez Bravo and the Archivo Manuel Álvarez Bravo (@archivo_manuelalvarezbravo).
This marks the first presentation of this group of photographs in the Americas, following its initial exhibition at Galerie Carole Lambert, Paris (November 11–December 18, 2025). Expanding on the earlier presentation in Paris, the exhibition includes several works that have never before been exhibited or published. Manuel Álvarez Bravo (1902–2002) will be accompanied by a forthcoming zine with text by Michael Farmaghetti (@michaelfamighetti).
Concurrent with the exhibition, the gallery will host a reading room presentation for @revistaobsidiana featuring existing issues of the publication. Obsidiana will also launch two new issues focused on photography by B. Traven and Alexis Landin.”
