Jeremy Anderson's whimsical ceramics and furniture debut at Gallery Fumi New York

exhibition · 2026-06-01

Jeremy Anderson presents 'Held In Light,' his largest solo show to date, at Gallery Fumi's New York residency in Gallerie 56, located in Herzog & de Meuron's 56 Leonard Street tower. The exhibition features 21 pieces including a dining table, cabinet, and daybed, all combining bronze frames with ceramic slabs painted in Anderson's signature stripes. Anderson, who co-founded the lighting studio Apparatus before returning to ceramics full-time, transforms familiar objects into whimsical, anthropomorphic forms. Highlights include a daybed with a French horsehair mattress in Zak + Fox fabric and 19th-century homespun bolster cushions. Gallery Fumi co-owner Sam Pratt notes the hand-made quality and universal memory-evoking resonance of the work. The show runs through July 3, 2026.
