Lehmann Maupin is pleased to announce details of its presentation for the 2025 edition of Art Basel Miami Beach. Highlighting a range of multimedia works by artists across the gallery’s global program, the presentation foregrounds works by women artists, including new panel works by Teresita Fernández, recent photographs by Catherine Opie, a new painting by Liza Lou, new paintings and a sculpture by Shirazeh Houshiary, and new works by Anna Park and Teresa Solar Abboud, who both joined the gallery’s roster in 2025 and will have their respective debut solo exhibitions in the United Kingdom at Lehmann Maupin London in 2026.
Notably, the gallery will also spotlight recent paintings by Chilean artist, poet, and activist Cecilia Vicuña, who is nominated as an Icon Artist in the 2025 Art Basel Awards. Vicuña has dedicated her six-decade career to preserving and paying tribute to the indigenous history and culture of the Americas. Through poetry, painting, installations and performances, she aims to awaken a spirit of collective activism in her audiences and to offer tools for imagining a more sustainable future. The paintings on view include work from the artist’s series of “Lost Paintings,” recreations of paintings from the 1960s and 70s that were lost or destroyed following the military coup in Chile under Augusto Pinochet. These compositions are infused with references to pre-Columbian iconography and Andean visual languages. Concurrent to the fair, Vicuña’s solo exhibition Reverse Migration, a Poetic Journey is on view at the Irish Museum of Modern Art in Dublin. Vicuña’s monumental Quipu Gut is also on view in the permanent collection at the Pérez Art Museum Miami.
The artist and filmmaker Alex Prager will also debut a new photographic work, entitled Hidden Hills (Echoes) (2025), at the fair, coinciding with Prager’s immersive Mirage Factory project, presented in collaboration with Capital One and The Cultivist and on view from December 4–5 at 430 Lincoln Road in Miami Beach. Working simultaneously across film, photography, and sculpture, Prager constructs highly emotional moments that feel like a fabricated memory or dream. Her distinctive use of archetypes, everyday objects, humor, and allegory—along with her signature technicolor facades—allow her to explore dark and complex topics. Using the city of Los Angeles as its subject, Prager’s new work extends her decades-long fascination with the tension between the staged and the real, reimagining the city’s dream machinery as something much more intimate, uncanny, and alive. Prager turns the myth of Los Angeles inside out—revealing a city built as much from memory and fantasy as from light and landscape. In Hidden Hills (Echoes), which references the Pink Floyd album cover for “Echoes,” Prager stages unexpected moments that unlock the imagination and challenge rational thought, resulting in an unconventional, illogical, and dreamlike image. Each of the three subjects, depicted in a distinctly Los Angeles home, is multifaceted, mysterious, and caught between conflicting emotions or moments of self-awareness. Prager recently completed her debut feature film “DreamQuil,” a cautionary tale about identity, automation, and what makes us human, to be released in 2027.
Additional highlights include a large-scale sculpture by Do Ho Suh and a painting by Beijing-based artist Liu Wei, who was recently named by the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York as the Genesis Facade Commission artist for 2026. Liu’s multidisciplinary work explores 21st-century socio-political concepts such as the transformation of developing cities and the urban landscape. In September 2026, Liu’s site-specific commission at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York will mark the artist’s first institutional show in New York City and the first time in nearly 20 years that the museum has asked an artist from mainland China to create artwork for its building.
The gallery will also present work by Loriel Beltrán, McArthur Binion, Dominic Chambers, Mandy El-Sayegh, Todd Gray, Nicholas Hlobo, Kim Yun Shin, Liu Wei, Tammy Nguyen, OSGEMEOS, Lari Pittman, Calida Rawles, David Salle, Nari Ward, Erwin Wurm, and Billie Zangewa.
