SECONDARY is a five-channel video installation by Matthew Barney, performed in the artist’s Long Island City studio in 2023, then in London, Paris, and Los Angeles in 2024. The plot revolves around an accident that occurred during a football game in 1978, when Oakland Raiders’ Jack Tatum delivered an open field hit on Darryl Stingley, a wide receiver for the New England Patriots. Stingley was left paralysed. The tragic event remained seared in the minds of American fans, including Barney himself, a youth-league quarterback at the time.

Through allusion to American sports culture, SECONDARY explores the complex intersection of violence, its representation, and its celebration. It reimagines the game through a unique movement vocabulary. The result is a physical study that focuses on every element of the game, from drills and pre-game rituals to moments of impact and their slow-motion replays.

Volume 1 explores SECONDARY in depth, with essays by leading contemporary voices. Volume 2 maps the life of Barney’s former Long Island City studio, where SECONDARY premiered to the public.

In his paintings, sculptures and drawings, Glenn Brown confronts the history of art with a contemporary understanding of paint’s materiality and a barbed sense of colour. Numbered and signed by the artist, this Collector’s Edition treats the viewer to a close encounter with Brown’s eye-deceiving renderings of brushstrokes from sources between Sci-Fi and the Old Masters.

Albert Oehlen’s work is included in Post-Atomic Abstraction, a collection presentation in room 203 at The Museum of Modern Art, New York. During the final years of the Cold War and in the decades that followed, artists in Germany and the United States faced a brave – and contradictory – new world. The presentation brings together artists’ responses to this period of transition, where the push and pull between the prewar and post-atomic worlds fostered novel paths toward abstraction.

Albert Oehlen’s monumental sculpture Ömega Man, 2023, is now on view to the public in Weidingen, where it emerges from the vast landscape of the Südeifel. Its simplified form and slightly raised steel bars, recessed into their concrete casting, evoke the lightness of a drawing. Here, the persistent importance of the line in Oehlen’s work becomes evident, appearing simultaneously curved and controlled. In this work, the artist uses elements which are both abstract and figurative to critically examine the history and conventions of contemporary art, all the while continuing to acknowledge the importance of classical models. Massive yet fragile in its isolation, Oehlen’s Ömega Man appears like a monument from the future. Omega, the last letter of the Greek alphabet, is here written with an umlaut, thereby referring to the artist’s own name.
