Upcoming exhibition
Maya Frodeman Gallery is pleased to present Home, a solo exhibition with artist Jeffrey Blondes, on view at the gallery's downtown location from September 19th through November 2nd, 2025. An artist reception will be held Friday, September 19th from 5 to 8pm. All are welcome to attend.
Jeffrey Blondes creates long-form videos, film-still editions, and drawings that illuminate the often-overlooked rhythms of the natural world. Since 1990, his practice has centered on the subtle cycles of landscapes and their relation to the passage of time. Attuned to the delicate interplay of weather, light, and planetary motion, Blondes transforms these shifts into works that invite viewers to slow down and recognize the profound significance of even the smallest changes unfolding around us each day. In Home, Blondes’ third exhibition with Maya Frodeman Gallery, he turns his focus on the landscapes closest to him – the tree outside his window, the fields he has walked for decades, and the cycles of light and season around his home in Touraine, France.
