Jack O'Brien: Leisure
11 April – 20 June 2026
Morena di Luna
3 Adelaide Crescent
Hove BN3 2JD
More information
Maureen Paley is pleased to present Leisure, the first exhibition by Jack O’Brien at the gallery in Morena di Luna, Hove.
Opening today between 2 - 6 pm.
In this new exhibition, Jack O’Brien reconfigures everyday objects through processes of twisting, binding, stretching, and puncturing, using these material interventions to probe how desire is constructed, how economies of consumption are sedimented, and how queer aesthetics operate under conditions of instability and continual transformation.
With special thanks to:
Ginny on Frederick and Freddie Powell.

Peter Hujar
Eyes Open in the Dark
26 February - 23 August 2026
Bundeskunsthalle
Helmut-Kohl-Allee 4
53113 Bonn,
Deutschland
More information
Following its highly acclaimed run at Raven Row, London, the exhibition travels to the Bundeskunsthalle in Bonn and opens this Friday.
Photographer Peter Hujar (1934–1987) was a central figure in the New York downtown scene of the 1970s and 1980s.
The exhibition focuses on Hujar's work since the 1970s and reflects his exploration of the possibilities of relationships within rigid frameworks. It was curated by Hujar's biographer John Douglas Millar and his friend Gary Schneider, in close collaboration with the photographer's estate.
When Hujar died of AIDS-related pneumonia, his work was largely unknown. Today, however, Peter Hujar is considered one of the most important photographers of the second half of the 20th century.
