TOTAH presents The Time That's Left, an exhibition of works by Italian artist Tommaso Spazzini Villa. Opening May 14, 2026, this marks his first solo exhibition with the gallery, and his first in New York City. Tommaso Spazzini Villa's current exhibition expands on ideas central to his recent largescale mural work located on West 45th Street in Hell’s Kitchen. Moving from public space to the more intimate setting of the gallery, the repeated roots spread across a wall now extend into drawn interventions on the pages of antique volumes. These graphite works, meticulously traced across pages of sacred texts, epic poetry, theater, and musical scores, radiate, tangle, and proliferate over the printed surface. Set against canonical textual backdrops, these forms suggest a parallel system of growth—one that doesn’t follow the linear order of language, but branches outward, accumulating, diverging, and reconfiguring. Spazzini Villa’s work hovers between what is given and what must be discovered. Whether in dense networks of graphite roots or in the furtive imagery cast by light, a single gesture reveals itself: the foregrounding of systems that lie below the surface, shaping what we see without ever fully revealing themselves.

TOTAH presents The Fold, an exhibition of recent work by Aleksandar Duravcevic, opening May 1st, 2025. This is Duravcevic’s fourth solo exhibition with the gallery. With The Fold, Aleksandar Duravcevic introduces a new body of work that extends and reframes the conceptual arc of his YOUTH series. His polished stainless steel YOUTH works, where light and reflection play a central role in constructing the viewer’s relationship to absence and memory, are now extended in terms of materials and surface. Painted with oil and acrylic on linden wood boards, they extend the meditative significance of the earlier series, while introducing architectural features that allude to Byzantine influences on Duravcevic’s native Montenegro.

TOTAH presents Sunset Emergency, a two-person exhibition featuring selected works by Robert Feintuch and Saul Steinberg, opening on February 20th, 2025. This is Feintuch’s first appearance with the gallery, and Steinberg’s second large-scale presentation.

TOTAH presents Western Gate, featuring new paintings by Mara De Luca. This is the artist’s third solo exhibition with the gallery. Mara De Luca’s recent paintings are storied meditations on the promise of utopia. Taking California as her inspiration, she translates its atmospheric light and littoral skyscapes into the language of abstraction. Light takes on a metaphoric value; the physical labor of painting is redressed as a sheer architecture of color and space. De Luca uses techniques that not only add layers of visual depth, but also enhance the emotional complexity of her methods. Each wash of color or subtle obscuration represents a nuanced idea or unconscious feeling. Even when her canvases are occluded in some manner, as when a fold curtains the surface of a canvas, this only serves to affirm her chosen theme.

TOTAH presents ALL SALES FINAL!, an exhibition of paintings by Mel Bochner opening April 25th and on view through June 15th. This is Bochner’s second solo exhibition with the gallery.

TOTAH presents Clockwise, a group exhibition comprising 12 artists. All of the artists included are currently represented by the gallery. Clockwise does more than highlight commonalities among the 12 artists affiliated with TOTAH. Embodying a curatorial strategy where each artist chooses a favorite work by another, what results is a symposium of overlapping admirations, a laboratory of democratized influences distilled across numerous points of esteem. The avenues of communication established between the works on view speak to the essential qualities each artist is known for, yet also reveal lesser known aspects of their sensibilities.
