Each summer, N.Smith Gallery reopens with a moment to reset and to gather momentum for the year ahead. Summer ’26 brings together artists from across the gallery community in a shared opening gesture: works that don’t close a chapter, but set the tone for what’s next.
Rather than looking back, the exhibition looks forward, holding space for new ideas, fresh conversations, and the projects still to come. Each artwork is a point of departure, inviting renewed attention from collectors, artists, arts workers, and the wider communities who sustain contemporary art.
Summer ’26 marks the gallery’s return, and an early glimpse of the year we’re building together — one shaped by curiosity, ambition, and the energy of making.
