Anthony Iacono: Sticky Fingers
December 13, 2025 - February 15, 2026
Laura (the gallery) is pleased to present a solo exhibition by Philadelphia-based artist Anthony Iacono, featuring a series of the artist’s signature cut-paper collages. Iacono uses carefully-washed and sliced paper to create ambiguous depictions of queer bodies, at once mysterious and erotic. Iacono’s moody and suggestive compositions at first appear to be digital images or airbrush paintings, but on closer inspection, they reveal crisp cuts and careful assembly. In this series of works, hands become Iacono’s primary subject of exploration. Hands filch objects from the jackets of unwitting victims, caress bodies, and play with treasures. The exhibition opens Saturday, December 13 and runs through February 15, 2026.
Anthony Iacono (b. 1987, Nyack, NY) earned his MFA from Virginia Commonwealth University in Sculpture + Extended Media, and a BFA from the School of Visual Arts, New York. He attended the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in 2013, and has been an artist-in-residence at the Museum of Arts and Design, the Sharpe-Walentas Studio Program, LMCC Workspace, and ISCP. He has had solo exhibitions at PPOW Gallery (2015, 2018), The Approach (2019), Capsule Shanghai (2020), The Spite Haus (2022), and Marinaro (2018, 2021, 2023), where he is represented. In 2017, he was a recipient of the Toby Devan Lewis Fellowship Award. He lives and works in Philadelphia.
NADA Miami 2025
December 2 - 6, 2025
Ice Palace Film Studios
Booth D301
Laura (the gallery) is pleased to participate in NADA Miami 2025, taking place December 2-6 at Ice Palace Studios. Booth D301 brings together artists whose practices turn toward the mystical and the cosmological, drawing from traditions that include New Mexico transcendentalism, ancestral ritual, and spiritual abstraction.
A new painting by Diego Medina anchors the presentation, working within the cultural and spiritual legacies of Indigenous knowledge systems, Medina considers the possibility of portals, thresholds, and cosmological diagrams through compositions rooted in the land-based philosophies of the Southwest and the visionary language of the Transcendental Painting Group. Shuling Guo's transcendent painting on linen extends this exploration of interior and ancestral realms, drawing from Chinese temple iconography and the reverence central to her upbringing in the Chaoshan region to create work that functions as an altar holding devotion, continuity, and spiritual inheritance, profoundly shaped by her grandmother's passing and her daughter's birth. The presentation also features intimately-scaled paintings by Keiko Moriuchi, the final artist accepted into Gutai and personally recruited by Jiro Yoshihara, whose impastoed surfaces gilded with gold leaf create topographic terrains that read as portals or devotional objects, drawing from Buddhist cosmology, ancient Japanese myth, and her formative relationships with Ad Reinhardt, Isamu Noguchi, and Matsumi Kanemitsu. Works by Ernesto Solana round out the booth, responding to celestial events and ancestral symbols through eclipse photography and patinated sculptural forms.
An Ocean Between: NADA Miami 2025
Keiko Moriuchi, Wang Menghsa, Komie Kim Le
September 15 - October 25, 2025
Laura (the gallery) is pleased to present An Ocean Between, an intergenerational exhibition featuring the work of Keiko Moriuchi (b. 1943, Osaka), Wang Mengsha (b. 1982, Wuxi), and Komie Kim Le (b. 1999, Houston). The exhibition spans over eight decades and traverses geographies from Japan to China to the Vietnamese diaspora in Texas, exploring how women artists of Asian descent inherit, interrogate, and reinvent visual languages across time and place.
The title An Ocean Between invokes both separation and connection: the vast aqueous divide that distances continents and histories, yet also the persistent undercurrents that resurface like tides, binding disparate shores of human experience. Rather than positing a linear genealogy, the exhibition proposes a poetics of relation: an intertidal zone where visual traditions, personal mythologies, and diasporic subjectivities ebb and flow in perpetually shifting confluence.
Untitled Art Fair, Houston: Shuling Guo
September 18 - 21, 2025
Laura (the gallery) is pleased to present a solo exhibition of new paintings by Chinese born, Philadelphia based artist Shuling Guo (b. 1986, Chao’An, China) on the occasion of Untitled Art Fair’s inaugural Houston edition—her first show with the gallery and in Texas. Guo’s practice, shaped by years living aboard a sailboat, translates the mutable elements of sea and sky into compositions suspended between figuration and abstraction, recalling Rothko’s atmospheres, Hilma af Klint’s spiritual geometries, and Agnes Martin’s meditative restraint.
Since the birth of her daughter in 2022, her work has shifted from oceanic expanses toward an earthbound engagement with flora, foliage, and trees, infused with the embodied experiences of pregnancy, postpartum, and motherhood. Layering colored pencil over liquid washes of oil on linen, she creates glowing surfaces where medallion-like orbs track her daughter’s growth and her own evolving identity, invoking Chinese temple iconography, ancestral veneration, and the felt presence of her late grandmother. Across ocean and earth, body and spirit, Guo’s paintings emerge as contemporary altarpieces that chart cycles of life, loss, and renewal, inviting viewers into a contemplative space suffused with light.
Gerardo Rosales: El Bosque
July 12 - August 23, 2025
El Bosque is a solo exhibition by Houston-based, Venezuelan-born artist Gerardo Rosales, featuring new paintings that navigate the entangled realms of queer solitude, desire, and ecological refuge. In Rosales’s lushly patterned worlds, hybrid creatures—part human, part animal—emerge from vibrant fields of flora and ornament, while serpentine forms wind through dense compositions like maps of cruising paths and life’s nonlinear journey. Drawing from Latin American craft traditions, Gio Ponti’s architectural geometry, and the codified aesthetics of queer subculture, El Bosque invites viewers into a forest of symbols where beauty camouflages critique and myth becomes a mode of survival.
Chang Sujung: Alteration
April 26 - June 14, 2025

Laura (the gallery) is pleased to present Alteration, a solo exhibition by New York–based artist Chang Sujung, featuring new works that synthesize plein air paintings and the sculptural language of textiles made between the architectural density of Midtown Manhattan and the living, improvisational rhythms of Central Park. Taking its title from a musical term denoting chromatic deviation—and from the tailoring vernacular of adjustment—Alteration reflects on the labor of becoming: of garments modified, chords bent, and identities recut within shifting social and linguistic fabrics.
Christine Egaña Navin: Hot Swap
February 1 - March 16, 2025
Laura is pleased to announce our first solo exhibition with Christine Egaña Navin. Comprising an 11-channel video installation, the exhibition positions technology as both protagonist and paradox, exploring the recursive systems that mediate our experience of energy, power, and representation.
NADA Miami 2024
Keiko Moriuchi
Booth D101
December 3 - 7, 2024
![]()
Laura is pleased to announce our participation in NADA Miami 2024. The gallery will present a solo booth of works by Keiko Moriuchi (b. 1943, Osaka, Japan). Now 81 years old, Moriuchi was the last member accepted to join Gutai, Japan’s preeminent post-war avant-garde art group. She is one of Gutai’s few surviving members, and the sole member personally recruited by founder Jiro Yoshihara. Moriuchi’s showing at NADA Miami represents the artist’s debut in the United States.
The Antenna Show
September 19 - November 27, 2024
The Antenna Show is about frequencies, feelers, and feelings. The exhibition's works of art channel the acute sensitivity of antennae, framing them as conduits for perception and energy. The works of Emily Cheng, larí garcía, Iva Kinnaird, Umico Niwa, and Sarah Pettitt not only receive signals, as antennae do, but dispatch them. Thus, the works of art together become an array of conductors that participate in cycles of sensation and transmission. These five artists respectively tune into spiritual, paranormal, insectoid, and botanical frequencies.
Moon Eats the Sun
April 13, 2024 - August 24, 2024
A group exhibition about eclipse, and human perception of the celestial event. Artists: Celeste, Saúl Hernández-Vargas, Julie Malen, Kian Mckeown, Ernesto Solana, and Alexis Zambrano.
