Shop exclusive merchandise made to coincide with the exhibition Alex Da Corte: The Whale. Alex Da Corte: The Whale March 2, 2025 - September 7, 2025 Alex Da Corte: The Whale is the first museum exhibition to survey the interdisciplinary artist’s long relationship with painting. Focusing on the past decade of Da Corte’s career, this exhibition features more than forty paintings, several drawings, and a video that considers painting as a performative act.  Da Corte is globally recognized for his hybrid installations marrying painting, performance, video, and sculpture.
